Call me crazy, but when I saw Les Miles lift the crystal ball as LSU won the 2007 national championship, I turned to the person sitting next to me on the couch and said, "One day we'll watch him perform the fava beans scene from 'Silence of the Lambs' as he launches a second career as an actor." If you don't believe me, you can ask my guest that night: Count Chocula.
Okay, that didn't happen. But we do live in a world where the former LSU coach is launching a second career as an actor, and he shot a video with AL.com showing off his acting chops.
Take a look.

This isn't a career path any of us saw The Mad Hatter following after he was let go from LSU in 2016, but more power to him for living his dream.
