Oh, to be 17 again

It's Monte Kiffin's birthday today, but he wasn't born on March 1.

Solve that riddle.

The legendary defensive coach in his first year at USC, Kiffin was born Feb. 29, 1940, so he's now 70 years old, though he's actually only celebrated 17 birthdays in his lifetime. So even though he's officially as old as many players' grandparents, you can still consider him a spry teenager who's still waiting to vote, enlist in the military and reach the legal drinking age.

And in case you were wondering, Kiffin said he celebrates his birthday on Feb. 28 whenever it's not a leap year.
