Top 10 Les Miles quotes
1. "I'm the head coach at LSU. I will be the head coach at LSU. I have no interest in talking to anybody else. I got a championship game to play, and I'm excited for the opportunity of my damn strong football team to play in it. Please ask me after. I'm busy. Thank you very much. Have a great day!" SECCG 2007 on Michigan rumors
2. "My point to you is, there is no such thing as a flop that takes the field for our football team. Just so ya know, I'm proud of those men. How ****ing easy would it have been to say it's their night. Excuse my language. Spectacular group of men. You got to find them, you throw your arms around them and give them a big kiss on the mouth, if you're a girl." Reacting to column on Russell Shepard as a flop after Ole Miss 2012.
3. "Two very quality teams take the field and compete like a son of a bitch for victory. And you know what? It's not a hammer and a nail relationship. It's an opportunity for an opponent to be equal, and to raise the level of play in such a fashion that they win. And that's how this thing works. That in fact you respect the opponent and he's not the hammer and he's not the frickin' nail. OK? He's the opponent, you understand?
Les Miles takes exception to reporter's hammer vs. nail metaphor: Video
LSU coach Les Miles goes on a post game rant over his team being referenced as a nail to Florida's hammer in last year's game, won by the Gators, 14-6.
"I'm just letting you know I resent that. I resent the fact that suddenly, we were nailed. Ya got it? I mean honest to Pete. S***, we were a pretty good team last year. I thought we played like a **** in that stadium. I'm just letting you know I felt differently from the nail, so ya know. Hammer vs. nail rant after 2013 Florida game
4. "We're undefeated in regulation." An observation made, originally by his wife Kathy Miles, that supposedly helped LSU get into the 2007 BCS title game vs. Ohio State.
5. "Nice hat" To an Alabama fan wearing a Bear Bryant Houndstooth hat who gave Miles a "Roll Tide" walking out of Heisman Trophy ceremony in NYC 2011.
6. "You just witnessed something I've never seen in my entire life. They just called that team (Tennessee) the winner. They said whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, (whistles) come back here. Then they called us the winner. I'm a tell you right now as an experience, dammit, I'm going to enjoy that one as much as I hate to admit it." LSU win vs. Tennessee in 2010 on a last play do-over.
7. "There was a contact between a football player and a cheerleader, male I might add. That male cheerleader clipped me from the side as I was running full speed, or slower than full speed, but generally, in the upper quadrant of speed. And I hit the ground pretty good." After colliding with a cheerleader while running onto the field for a game.
8. "When I wake up in the morning and I turn that film on, it's like reading a book and it's exciting. I don't read books, but if I read books it would be like reading a book." During a weekly press luncheon address.
9. "Yeah, we call that mulling around. Okay guys, come on now. What we're going to do early in this game is mull around, okay? And later, we're going call that monkey-off-our-back play." After his trick play that helped beat Alabama in 2010.
10. "This is what you should do, let it rest. I'm playing football for LSU. I'm preparing for R-Kansas. I'm preparing for the next game, and the next game after that. Prior to 2007 Arkansas game.

"Just want to remind everybody that it's Columbus Day. All those of you that know Italians, and like Italians, or the people that might venture onto a ship and travel, to explore and find new lands, this is your day. So it's not St. Paddy's day. That's a different day entirely."

How about this one from last week about naming a starter at QB: "And therein, self-interpretation at some point in time will be, in my opinion, by which you pick the starter."

Don't get me wrong, I know the answers. I can tell you exactly what's wrong. But I choose not to, and I'm honest when I say I'm DECEPTIVE. I'm honestly deceptive. But it's with forethought, not to be entertaining, not to be flippant, but to be thoughtful of the team you represent.

Nice hat
My favorite because it was off the cuff. Just a straight up pawning of a fan who was trying to taunt him.

Out of curiosity...which threads can't be googled. there is very little original content on here, and if it is it is usually an opinion that was stolen from somebody else.
Miles is an entertaining individual. Never hurts to be reminded of it and get a laugh out of some of his wit.
Besides...if we can get a thread out of BamaDoc that isn't a troll, then I am all for it.
