Bobby Hebert: I have forgotten more about football than Les Miles knows

If Bobby Hebert disappeared off the face of the earth, I highly doubt LSU coach Les Miles would shed a tear. Hebert is a die-hard Tigers fan but also one of the biggest Miles critics going, and he was back at it again during a recent interview with Les Carpenter of Yahoo! Sports.
Hebert is a former New Orleans Saints quarterback and has a son, T. Bob Hebert, who played for LSU last season. After the Tigers lost to Alabama in the BCS National Championship Game last year, Hebert went off on Miles during his postgame press conference for calling conservative plays when his team was trailing by multiple scores. Bobby stands by that criticism, to say the least.
“I know this and I actually believe this, and people say ‘Oh come on;’ but I know I’ve forgotten more football than Les Miles knows,” Hebert told Yahoo! Sports. “If you could bring me down and call plays and know what you’re doing. I would never make that statement about Sean Payton. Come on, I know. But I know when the defense is doing this and blitzing how are you going to attack it? What do you need to do?
“Like its 3rd-and-10 against Alabama, you’re going to run the option? Come on. You can get away with that against Washington. When you’re playing Alabama and you have 15 NFL players, well so do they. And you got to have some imagination.”
Earlier this season, Hebert was ejected from the press box for cheering LSU too loudly during their most recent loss to Alabama. At least you know his heart is in the right place. After bashing Miles for not knowing as much as him about the game, Hebert then seemed to take a full 180-degree turn.
“With the success that Les Miles has had he is probably in the history of football the most successful unloved coach I have ever seen,” he said. “To dominate and as much as he has had success [to] have people not think he walks on water? No, it’s unbelievable.”
So wait, does this guy love Miles or hate him? Chances are not even he knows the answer

If by football, Bobby is talking about beer, then yeah, maybe.

Does a high level NFL QB (not Bobby Hebert) like Manning, Brady, etc. know more football than Les Miles? I think they do. Probably high level students of the game at the NFL level like Brees understand the game at a higher level than Les does. I believe Chavis knows more football from top to bottom than Les does. That said their is more to being a college head coach than just being a student of the game. Being a good college head coach has many facets to it such as administrative duties, recruiting, etc.

Hebert is spot on even if germanic.

I bet that Georgia gets the ball to the 4 yard line but the clock runs out on them and Alabama wins by 4.

u may be correct. but, i did a couple of searches. i'm here daily and didn't remember it.
would you help me search and find the posting?
thanks, 'cause, i'd hate it if i posted something that might be already posted, and i'd double hate it if i called someone out for an old post, and then it hadn't been posted and i hadn't done my own search.
wow, the power of the internet.

All the vacant coaching positions he could pick and choose from, but he continues in his field of choice, Professional Blowhard.

until he actually coaches a college game, so we can see him apply his so called knowledge, it's all hot air.
