well, i might agree with you somewhat, but no one knows if he even said it

He's talked more openly about his excitement over this team than any of the previous ones at Alabama.

Most likely. He's not gushing about them, but just seems more excited about how things are going in camp than he ever has.

Hearing Miles say things like that, doesnt quite have the same appeal that Saban does

Not quite what he said. He was speaking about this years squad having the best testing results from completing the 4th qtr program (off-season strength and conditioning) since he has been in Tuscaloosa. The best part of the news conf was toward the end when he went pff on the media for reporting injuries without confirming what was or was not true.

1st press conf

I don't remember that. He said this team has "more" or "better" leadership this year.

he said the best test results in three years (what ever that means)

that is a far cry from "the best football team he has ever coached"

more like apples and coffee pots really.

It's the 1st I've heard of it. Think the context is all wrong.
