I said now. Your hate for Alleva is disturbing because you are a pretty well informed mf. It couldn't be unfounded.
Huh. I gave alleva a pass last year. I don't hate him. I feel sorry for him and esp us bc he's naive. Nothing we can do now will make any difference.
I just hope he isn't as incompetent as he comes off, though I wonder how competent he can be with the beating he takes in the media. And all the hires that have fallen through.
The simple fact is that LSU will not pay for a quality basketball coach... Hell, they went cheap on football which is by far the most important program on campus.
I don't understand why you keep saying they went cheap with the football hire. O wasn't hired because he was cheap, he was the best option available like it or not.
Nobody on the Staff could be any worse and all of them would probably do a better job. Don't want who takes over to win many games though, or "Snow Peas Alleva" will hire him permanently. (Not much of a chance because there's little SEC level talent on the squad) The Athletic Department has to do something now to save face, stop the embarrassment and show recruits and the college basketball world that changes for the better are coming. BTW, I was not only a Tiger Band drummer during my time at LSU, but was also in the Basketball Band in 80 and 81. Would like to see the PMAC get back to that level of excitement. Fortunately, a basketball program can be rebuilt rather quickly. The fans will be back if LSU hires the right coach. Just spend a few $$$$$$$$$ and get that guy in here..............................
