Les Miles is a great football coach [View all]

But seems like he might be a heap short on the "book learning."

“I don’t understand the words. I mean, I really don’t. If you think about it, I don’t know what a tide is. ... I don’t know how you put those two words together.” — LSU coach Les Miles, when asked, “Roll Tide, what does it mean to you?”

Maybe he should have asked Bill O'Reilly. "Tide goes in. Tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. You can't explain that."

I looked for a clip on YouTube, but didn't find it. I did see it on TV though.

Plus, his name is grammatically incorrect. It should be "Fewer Miles."
