Les Miles is not coming to Michigan.
According the LSU website, Miles notified Joe Alleva, the school's vice chancellor and director of athletics, on Tuesday morning that he will remain at the university.
"I am pleased to announce that Les Miles will remain the head coach at LSU," Alleva said in a story posted on the website. "Les has led this program to many great successes on the field and his players represent LSU well off the field. We look forward to many great years of LSU football under his leadership."
The website said Miles will have a press conference upon his return from Dallas, where he is speaking at the convention of the American Football Coaches Association.
Miles met with Michigan on Monday evening about the Wolverines' coaching vacancy, shortly after the LSU coach said he is also "extremely happy" with his current job.
LSU spokesman Michael Bonnette confirmed that the meeting took place but could not immediately say which Michigan officials were involved.
Miles was an offensive lineman on two Big
Ten championship teams for the late Bo Schembechler, who later gave
Miles his first chance to be an assistant coach in 1980. Brandon is a
former teammate.
Miles is 62-17 with a 2007 national championship in six seasons at LSU since taking over for Nick Saban in 2005. He is coming of a 41-24 victory over Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl that gave him his fourth season with at least 11 wins the Tigers. He also has a 5-1 record in bowl games at LSU.
Next season would be Miles' seventh at LSU, where he has brought one highly rated recruiting class after another to Baton Rouge.
Last Wednesday, Rich Rodriguez was fired as Michigan coach with a 15-22 mark in three seasons.
