ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Michigan has postponed Tuesday night's players meeting after coach Rich Rodriguez met with his boss amid reports he will be fired.

Rodriguez traditionally holds the meeting the night before classes resume each semester. Defensive back James Rogers said the meeting was rescheduled for Wednesday afternoon.

Rodriguez met with athletic director Dave Brandon for hours on Tuesday afternoon, according to two people familiar with the situation who spoke with The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss Rodriguez's job status.

Rodriguez's third season ended Saturday with a 38-point loss to Mississippi State in the Gator Bowl, dropping his overall record to 15-22 with college football's winningest program.
