Bobby Hebert Thinks He Has Forgotten More About Football Than Les Miles Knows
Bobby Hebert has been a noted Les Miles critic in the past. The exuberant LSU fan/radio host (and former NFL quarterback) is under no illusions that he’s Sean Payton, but believes he would do a better job coaching LSU’s offense than Les Miles.
“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,” he says. “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 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.”
Les Miles is an offensive guy. LSU has had nine offensive players drafted in the past four NFL drafts. Their highest national finish in yards per play since 2008 is 50th.

Yes, he is a clown. He clearly has a personal ax to grind with Miles. God forbid Les wins at least ten games every year. Pretty good for a guy who knows nothing about football.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:44 PM
So basically he wants to treat LSU as a video game and just call plays. That isn’t how it works, Coonass. Recruiting, working 25 hour days, etc…
November 27th, 2012 at 2:44 PM
My least favorite crutch to demonstrate someone’s knowledge. Forgetting stuff is not impressive.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:44 PM
So what happened to all the Saints fans saying Brees should be MVP?
November 27th, 2012 at 2:46 PM
Coonass
Well this was unique.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:48 PM
I think 20 years from now when all head coaches have played over 10,000 rounds of EA football simulations timeouts, challenges, play calling, risk taking and most of the all the clock will be run competently. This may actually be the only positive I see in our world’s future and I am sticking with it.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:50 PM
No one is maligning Les Miles the recruiter, he just should not be anywhere near the field and game day decisions.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:50 PM
Wow. Nice work there. You’re only the second person I’ve seen use it. Correctly, no less. First was my mother-in-law, who correctly described herself as a coonass.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:51 PM
Would you midwest folk care to explain to the rest of us what a coonass is?
November 27th, 2012 at 2:51 PM
Surprised not to see a Sean Taylor post. I could watch Taylor highlights all day. Meast.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:52 PM
Bobby Hebert is an offensive guy, too. They should chat.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:52 PM
I agree with this. Oh, you meant it another way. Les is a 1980s offensive guy. There’s no imagination in the passing game (heck, there’s no real passing game). He just lines up against you and says he going to outblock you and outathlete you. This ususally works, but I don’t think anybidy’d call it a great offense.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:52 PM

My Uncle married into cajuns.

We’re two days away from the one year anniversary of the Craig James post. Momentum has slowed but there is one new comment.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:54 PM
Explains that.
MS: coonass generally is used to describe a poor cajun hick. Not unlike Bobby Herbert.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:54 PM

it’s a synonym for n*gg*r, but it’s applicable to white skinned people from the bayou. And that’s why those people say it’s offensive, because they know what it’s a tantamount to calling someone.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:55 PM
Well that explains how KC knew what it was, but how did that expression make it’s way up to Minnesota?
November 27th, 2012 at 2:55 PM

Agree. I’m just saying Bobby (you are a grown man, Robert. Drop the “Y”) wouldn’t put forth the effort that it takes to be coach. Coaching is more than calling plays.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:56 PM

Makes sense. I’m fascinated by the fact that this is the first time I’ve come across this term.
November 27th, 2012 at 2:56 PM
so if a coonass calls a coonass a coonass, like for instance in a coonass rap song, that’s cool. But nobody else gets to call a coonass a coonass.

I have no cajuns in my family and nor did I marry into them.

I hadn’t heard it used in years until Saban used it in talking about LSU fans back when he was a coach there. As Dirt, says, it isn’t really an expression, but an insult. An insult they embrace when they use it, but nobody else can or PC police come out and, oh, I’m just kidding. Nobody cares when cajuns get insulted.

How much does he make per year? I’d rather have him than Cliff Avril and KVB.
November 27th, 2012 at 3:14 PM
Nevermind. Just looked it up. Yes and how if it means getting rid of KVB and Avril next year. Then trade Suh and go invest in LB’s and secondary in the draft and FA market.
