    I thought he said Okie, and I was stumped as well. At the time I thought I was simply unaware of a West Virginian' nickname.

    I don't know of anyone called the Okies, so I have to guess we misheard it and it was actually the Hokies.

    Think about it, Les looked a little stunned when he went to greet WVU's head coach... he thought it would be Frank Beamer.

    Which is why he called them the Hokies.

    But really, he probably thinks WVU are the Hokies.

    Okie was a reference to the style of defense WVU ran. C'mon guys.... you're better than that.

    Did WVU run many 5-2 fronts?

    Of course not... we don't run the Wing-T

    "The Mountaineers play a version of the 3-4 defense which Miles called an "Okie" defense, short for Oklahoma where it originated. He said its similar to the defense Michigan ran when he was a player but will give LSU a challenge since the Tigers haven't seen that formation this season."

    Okay, I'll give him a pass on this one.

    But he still sucks as a speaker.

    And a coach.
