LSU head coach Les Miles visited the hospital on Monday after feeling ill in the morning, but he was back at the football operations building by Monday afternoon.

Miles, who turns 62 in November, was scheduled to attend his weekly media conference at 12:30 p.m., but when Miles did not appear for about 40 minutes, athletic director Joe Alleva made a brief statement, saying Miles was not feeling well and was advised to go to the hospital by LSU trainers.

Alleva said Miles went to the hospital "on a precautionary basis," and expected Miles to return for Monday afternoon's practice.

When Miles returned, according to the New Orleans Times Picayune, he joked, "I OD'ed on coffee."
