    I'm really happy for Les Miles and glad he is still our coach. Here is why:

    1 - He cares about his players.
    2 - He really enjoys singing the LSU alma mata after the LSU wins.
    3- The man is genuine.
    4- He was masterful in his pregame press conference yesterday. If you don't think he won over some coaches yesterday with his, "I'm busy. I've got to go coach my dam good football team in a championship. No questions. Have a great day!"

    I think this may have gotten us into the NCG.

    Speaking of Coach Miles being "The Man," here is a quote from one of the top stories on MSNBC's College Football page:

    "Yes, it’s Les. He’s The Man. College football usually has one. Sometimes it’s Pete Carroll, Bob Stoops, Mack Brown, Jim Tressel, or a host of others. Right now it’s Miles, by a mile. ... His Tigers aren’t a great team, but to be fair, there isn’t a great team out there this year. ... But the Tigers reached their goal [the NC game], and they have a superb chance to come away winners. Miles isn’t a blowhard, or a pompous ass. He’s a football guy. He loves his players, loves the game, and loves to compete."
