This has the makings of a jubilant disaster.

Not true with Jones. He was pushed on Alleva by previous coaches and players. They put him in a corner. You can blame Alleva for a lot, but Jones was shoved down his throat.

In all fairness, Jones coached a hell of a game yesterday against Duke... oh wait, that was VCU and they stomped LSU.

Alleva has destroyed both our football and basketball programs.

Successful ADs don't make emotional decisions. Successful ADs show profits instead of losses on the financial spreadsheets.

which is why I said they were emotional decisions, influenced by people who have too much of it

There's only one way to fix the basketball team...fire jones and promote Ronald Dupree. That's our MO, right?

You're right except the basketball program is dead weight on the books.

Go to a basketball game this year and tell me what you see.

Major revenue potential. But we don't care about that right?

Miles had too much power...Orgeron will have no power...Just what Alleva wants

Johnny Jones was just an average coach at North Texas. He's total crap at LSU with his parking lot style of play......And yes, Alleva was stupidly bamboozled into hiring him by Dale Brown and Collis Temple Jr.

Wouldn't hurt my feelings to see Alleva go.

Do you know for a fact that O will fail, or are you just hoping he will?

BYU will beat us 50-3 next year. Not looking forward to Alleva and O ruining our program.

It is amazing, isn't it, that his "national searches" for "proven winners" always end up being guys with ties to LSU?
