Great source
Right, just posted the KF thing in a different thread...HN.com and another Iowa site discussing this...

Wow. Ferentz says thanks, but no thanks to the mighty Michigan Wolverines. I say, HA!
If he was offered and he turns it down, then he deserves his fanbase.....
I would concur. We'll most likely never know.Quote:

1 of 3 things is happening.Quote:

3) KF was in the running, isn't getting the job, and doing the standard "I'm not getting it, hence I'm not interested"
Could not agree with you more!Quote:

Re: Breaking News on Ferentz and Michigan Reply
Says he was on a plane last night, but he was traveling to look at NFL facilities and UI wants to upgrade their facilities. They are reporting that he is no longer a candidate for the UM job.
I said this yesterday about Kelly...I'm glad we didn't hire him if he's jumping ship after 1 year.
If it is Kelly, and he has long term succcess at Michigan that exceeds the long term success Chizik will have here, I hope people are smart enough to realize that that doesn't mean he would have had success at ISU or would have been the right hire.Quote:

And you will probably be disappointed, because numerous people will say it.Quote:
