I love Les' response, but all the people ragging the reporter's question need to take a step back.

When reporters interview people (especially coaches who are experts in the art of sanitized bullshite answers) a lot of times they have to reword a question that they know a coach won't answer to get the information they need.
In this example, the reporter wants to know "who are you grooming to be the QB of the future," but he asks a more general question in hopes that Les gives him something to work with. Thus, the question isn't as dumb as you people are trying to make it out to be.

It's interesting that as a society we crave information, yet we so disrespect the facilitators of that information.

Which is a dumb question to ask in an interview after a game that has just been completed.

Even if Miles knows the answer to this question, he isn't going to just come out and answer it.

...had CLM actually answered, the headline would read

"MILES ABANDONS SEASON: ALREADY LOOKING FOR NEXT YEAR'S QB"

I think the facial expression at the end was classic.
