High blood pressure and heart attacks skyrocket in Kansas causing unnecessary deaths due to playcalling. Get those plots ready.

Lol. I didn’t think anybody in Kansas cared enough to watch.

If he were answering questions about Ming dynasty art, okay.


Welcome to the Les Miles new language tour!!

I thought they may have been exaggerating his response but after watching the particular part they pointed out, some concern may be warranted. Most of it is typical Les though.

Kansas is in for a world of hurt if they don't readjust their expectation bar in terms of pressers.

Les does seem worse than when he was at LSU. It wasn't his choice of words or "Les Speak" like when he was at LSU but his numerous moments where he just simply froze up and said nothing. It was strange to say the least.

They'll love him when he refers to Texas as "UT at Austin"

And turns Provens into a 2000 yd rushers.

I thought the same thing. A couple times he just froze up and said nothing for 4-5 seconds. When he did answer the answer was worse than "Les Speak". This was different. Normal Les Speak was normally on the surface where you thought WTF? But if you really thought about it what he was saying made sense he just said in a crazy way.

His opening presser at LSU wasn’t the greatest either.

His KU team will have a want to compete at the highest level. They will enjoy this competition and their ability to build their lives as strong, young men.

There were moments near the end of his tenure where I wondered the same, dementia or series of mini strokes

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”

“MY GOD!”





I can now be like all other fans: I can enjoy Les Miles because he isn’t my coach.

Man, I wish him the best but I'd be worried to if I were a KU fan. The cat did not look in good health at the end of his tenure here and he's 65.

Now he could never talk. There are still some who think that was a Columbo-like ruse and he was playing all of and was a contriving genius.

I think that is maybe partly true. I think he likes to play to that image but I've seen him behind the scenes and away from the spotlight and in several different settings, and what most of us saw was pretty much who he was.

Did Provens transfer from LSU or do you mean Pooka?

This will be fun to watch. All the arse clowns try and defend the shite show Kanas will become.

What is the over under on Miles, I have 2.5.

He won't make a full 3 years.

I’ve always thought he had some type of health issue (mild stroke or something else) before he was let go.

Wish the man well & good health at KU. Time will tell.
