Meh, everyone is different. Saban has always been and will always be a no-nonsense guy. Miles is who he is. Smith seems to be a very zeolous guy with his own peculiarities. Spurrier is a smart-arse, but a funny one. Pinkel is turning out to be a pretty fiery, doesn't-back-down, kind of guy. etc. I'd imagine most of the coaches get along fine with other in a private room, with rare exception.

Nobody beats Spurrier though....he used to have a live call in show at UF years ago (with a dump button of course) and his eyes would roll when some callers asked the dumbest questions...he usually gigged them and they never realized it.
One of my favorite quips is when at USC an overweight media guy approached Spurrier and told him that his mother used to date him when they were both at UF....Spurrier looked at the guys overweight physical size and said...naw...I dont think so.

He uses his mildly retardation for genius purposes.
Prime example.
THE GREAT ONE
He went slight retard, making the other coach go full retard.

i still blame Crowton for that one....how the hell do you make substitutions with 10 seconds left and no timeouts?

Exactly.
No one would think of it....except Les.
It is obvious he knew all that was going to happen.

Two comments bout Spurrier: I've always heard his comments at private, no media, booster functions have always been 3 times as funny & attacking of other teams, especially when he was at Fla.But, I've never liked his personal, joking comments bout players...he used to get on Peyton a lot; jabbing at fellow coaches like Richt & Phat Phil is fair game. And fwiw: Higgins called Saban a robot.

Criticism accepted. Please restrict the scope of my previous comments to the LSU poster I was responding to.
Fair enough. Don't seem like a jerk.
On topic Les is funnier than SC Spurrier but not Florida Spurrier.

I met CLM at football camp over the Summer. As much as he rambles a lot of the time, I talked to him and he made perfect sense to me.
Also I would say he is a lot funnier than Spurrier!
Geaux Tigers!!!
