Actually talked about how he was moved that Les showed up because no other coaches on the book tour did. Les told him there was no way he would let him come to his town for a book tour without showing up to greet him. Paul joked with Les and said "don't tell Nick Saban I was here" and Les laughed.

Les is damn good Louisiana people, and I love him for it.

Love Les -- and his --- it's summer -- I'll wear a jacket if I want.... and socks with my sandals - I eat grass, joke with the media, love my team and put my heart and soul into my job!!

Great guy, great representative for LSU.... and great leader of our team.

My guess is a belt.

Except for a few college students cramming for final exams, I think most individuals do read what they like in bed.

Paul's wife must not be a very good cook.

I think some of you guys are reading too much into what Les said.

I took it as a compliment saying that Les wanted something to read to go to bed because Paul's book would be too good to put down (I.E. he wouldn't want to go to bed while reading it)

That's a more likely explanation IMO.

Exactly what I was wondering. They prolly are stapled to his underpants.

While 90% of us want him to lose his job after a loss, I have a strong feeling that all of us are going to miss him and want him back after he's gone. He's going to go down as the best football coach LSU has ever had.

I thought I was missing something, but if this is what's making everyone ROFL, I think yall are a bit overeacting.

If that really is the interpretation of Miles comments, which I don't think it is, it's not that funny. Les can and has come up with much better.

I don't believe Les was trying to put PF down. When someone refers to something as being good bed time reading it means that it is boring and will put them to sleep. I think Les was complimenting PF by implying that PF's book would not put him to sleep.
