Miles sounds like a child - borderline autistic. His vocabulary is probably less than 500 words. How did this idiot ever become a College Head Football Coach?

Q. What's the status with Leonard (Fournette)? How bad is he? Do you feel like he can play next week? LES MILES: Well, me feeling like how he could play and him feeling it really --
Q. How does he feel? LES MILES: I would like to tell you how he feels. I don't necessarily have that one either. But certainly he's happy that his team got a victory, and he's in the position where now he can step forward and step in in conference play and let's go.
Q. Brandon has been here two and a half years, why hasn't he succeeded? LES MILES: I think it's not a succeed or not succeed. I think it's a take a couple steps forward and then you take a couple steps back and then you take a couple steps forward and as long as he continues to rebound and fight and compete, that's way down the road. You know what? There was a guy here that played quarterback with (Jacob) Hester, he was on Hester's team, a guy named (Matt) Flynn. He started one year, he won a National Championship and he's still playing in the NFL. Isn't he still playing in the NFL? Well, why didn't you tell me before I said that. So my point to you is, even though there's a lot of people that would say that success is a fleeting piece, and it's really the pursuit of that success that you're after. I think he's -- I think he'll continue to compete.
Q. What do the touch passes Danny completed do for the offense? LES MILES: He did the check downs. It's night and day. If the deep post is covered and there's nothing on a crossing route and you hit it to a back and the back can turn, you can see, Darrel had a couple really nice check down runs and -- did they score on that one? Did he score? Yeah, it got right down to the one yard lane or thereabouts. So I thought that those were nice adjustments by Danny.
Q. What does it say that 6-of-14 passing is good enough to win with this offense and that run game? LES MILES: Yeah, that's not enough. What you're going to want to do is you're not going to want to throw that deep ball out there in hope that a guy -- basically you want to hit a check down. You have to realize that you don't win the job with that throw, you really injure your opportunities. And that being said, he made enough really smart decisions -- I mean, just the scramble play on the naked. He comes off to the side and really there's several guys to throw it to, but the defense is running laterally, so he said, no, I'm taking it in. And that was exactly the right decision.
Q. How important is it to get the ball to (DeSean) Smith, because he has some skills. LES MILES: I mean, he is a talented receiver. We think we have a number of talented receivers.
Q. Can you pinpoint what's going on with Malachi (Dupre)? LES MILES: Yeah, he's got, I don't know what his, what's prohibiting him from having success, big strong, talented guy, goes up and gets it. But just can't bring it in. So, I would guess that he'll work on that. And, again, it's a work in progress.
Q. Seemed like early in the game especially the defensive line was rotating a lot more then a week ago. Did you want to get more guys in early? LES MILES: Well, it was probably the heat that we saw here in Tiger Stadium that spoke to moving guys around making sure that we had a good fresh lineup there and having Frank Herron back certainly helped that group.

This so reminds me of why Houston Nutt lost his job at Arkansas. Stop the run to beat his teams of late. No QB development. Starving receivers. His press conferences sounded very similar.

He's an idiot.... But he's our idiot.

He doesn't get $5 mil.
He didn't really state anything wrong. Not hard to understand. Dude graduated from Michigan in economics. Les is smarter than the majority of the arse hats on this board.

You would even have trouble convincing your own fan base of that one!

And there you have the reason he has lasted so long. He graduated from a better school than LSU so he must be smart.

LSU fans loved it when he didn't know how to pronounce Arkansas. That's Louisiana's highest paid employee, folks.

To be fair to the guy, most of everyone would sound like an idiot if their speech was transcribed in just about any conversation.
