I thought the same thing about Miles having his family and his team in the room for his interview, while Saban was isolated--and don't feed me any bull about a banquet. Really? You scheduled a football banquet the night of the BCS Selection Show? Tressel did the same thing in '07. The LSU team was together; the vest sat alone in a room. Here's to similar outcomes!
you sure get snarky when you know a woman is right. :hihi: what i loved about miles last night was not just being with the team, but having his family there. it wasnt just one of those "honey i've got to go to work for a while" things, but a family event. kinda like the kids often being at the team work outs. the players are his family too, and it shows. (imo.) every year we say that the young men that play for clm would run through a brick wall for him. and it's not because he is telling the to.
Plus, do you think Saban would've ever turned around, asked the kids what their reaction was, and let them have 2 seconds of fun while being on t.v? Course not. Not even his assistants are trustworthy of that. It speaks to Miles' trust in and also the fun side he brings. He knows when to turn it on and when to let them have slack. They know where the lines are. There wasn't a whisper until he invited them to join in.
You sure about that? Remember this? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiM2U9AiQRM]Coach Saban Makes Manuel Wright Cry (2005) - YouTube[/ame] Ok, maybe this guy is a little 'soft', but still...
