They say this years game pits the legendary Joe Paterno against the 'intense' Les Miles. I'm not sure that's the first word I think of when trying to describe him. Something tells they struggled with a one word description of him.

I was thinking "unpredictable" but with Crowton calling the plays that's definitely not the case anymore unless Les pulls another Ole Miss out of the blue. And even that wouldn't be unpredictable to about half the fans on this board. lol

Then you've never spoken to him one-on-one. He is intense.

How does it feel to have a dumbass make more money in a year than you'll make in a lifetime?

About 500k a year.

Some of you may actually come close to making more than him in a lifetime. min wage X 40 hours X 52 weeks X 50 years = close!

Are you implying that Lombardi would be a good fit with the Oakland Raiders organization?

A good, one word description of Les would probably be something like "unusual or quirky".

The ad should have a guide to Lesisms so people will understand what he's saying. I guarantee you no one around here has any idea what "we certainly relish the opportunity to demonstrate our achievement of a want of victory" means.

How is this even relevant?

In the history of humanity, many dunces have managed to become affluent.

Hell, even many poor football coaches have received compensation they didn't deserve.

How much did Franchione get paid to dismantle the A&M program? How about Weiss?

Yes, but I would have actually gone for something like "goofy". That would fit since he's coming to home of 'Goofy'.

I think they meant coach to got to 50 wins faster than any other coach and the coach that momma's love to give their children to.
