John Beilein Officially Offered Michigan Job

The Detroit Free Press is reporting that John Beilein has an offer from the table from Michigan and will decide sometime today -- today is Monday, for anyone like The Dude who doesn't really keep track of these things. It seems Michigan athletic director Bill Martin is playing it coy:
The Free Press asked Martin via e-mail if Beilein had been offered the job and was in Ann Arbor on Sunday. Martin responded only, "If Coach Beilein was in AA today, I didn't know about it."
The Detroit News' Bob Wojnowski goes a step farther in his brief article on the subject:
U-M athletic director Bill Martin has targeted Beilein all along, and according to two sources, Beilein, 54, appears willing to accept the job.
Though it is noted "appears willing to" is not the world's strongest assertion, it appears that any buyout-related hurdles have been cleared and Michigan, despite the whole puppy-burning thing, has made a sufficiently enticing offer for Beilein to consider it.
