Nope. They are reserved for broadcast journalists types that are taught to empahsise certain words & hang on buzz words & cliches. It's acting degree, in many ways.

Just a thought. Most LSU fans understand O doesn't coach Offense, Defense or Special teams. His claim to fame besides "He talks like us", is supposed to be recruiting.
