The only people complaining about it are other media members who think themselves to be a special class of citizen. I've met a ton of sports media people and so many if them act as if they are celebrities. Get over yourself people. You cover sports for a living. You don't make blockbuster movies.

Then again it is a personality type. Media folk. Not so much the writers such as magazine guys or newspaper guys but the television people. It's tge look at me personality. Primadonnas. Every last one of them.

Others who are bothered by Bobby are those in the fanbase who are angered when anything ill is spoken of their boy Lester.

They've been upset by much less since his arrival.

couldn't have said it better.

Miles' ego was the problem. as a coach i can say, you just HAVE to exhaust every avenue. this is for all the marbles, and you get paid 4 million a year!! if JJ can't do it, put in JL. if JL can't do it, guess what? put Mett in, you stubborn jackass!!

I think Hebert did a good job of controlling his emotions. He had to watch a coach throw away a chance his son had at having a perfect season and winning a national championship. He had to be extremely disappointed and pissed off that Miles didn't put the players in a position to be successful. He knew his son was going to be hurting from that loss and that Les Miles was mainly responsible.

He could have done a lot worse. He could have called out Miles and asked him why no changes were made to the offensive line when they were getting blown up all game. He could have asked why his son didn't get to see the field in his last game as a Tiger.

Instead, he focused on the one thing that was inexplicable: Miles' refusal to deviate from a plan that was doomed to fail from the start. He called out Miles' on his stubbornness. As a dad, I think he showed much restraint.

The only people complaining are the media dips that didnt have the balls to ask the same question.....


And the talk radio guys that didn't have credentials for that presser..


Bobby knows more about football than 99% of the folks on this board....
