LSU has months, and interviews virtually no one. Offers no other coaches.

We literally folded at the idea we may have had to compete with Texas. It was sickening.

That's the most pathetic thing about this entire charade. They've been planning to give the job to 0 the whole time. The fanbase got hoodwinked.

Nothing but amateurs over there looking smarter than our own administration now.

LSU was too scared to go into a bidding war with Texas. Top 5 program my arse. Top 5 programs don't fold like pussies like ours do.

Though we had a glimmer of hope, are we REALLY surprised that Alleva once again essentially held his status quo in hiring Coach O?

Hopefully - there's that word again, we'll have better results than we've had with some of his other hires.

The odds are not in his favor...

Texas is a dumpster fire. They will continue to be with that Mickey Mouse coach

Because Alleva is a coward and went cheap. LSU has gone back to mediocrity.

So the best case is you hire one of the top coaches on the market for 6 million and the worst case is you drive up the price for a competitor in your region? The frick is the problem with either of those scenarios? Is that you Joe?

So you want to help the guy who backed out of a verbal agreement with you to get mote money... just to make a school that is not in your conference pay more?

More clueless, morons thinking we can out bid Texas. You people are so stupid you remind me of most of the Yankee generals during the civil war that marched there men repeatedly into suicide missions.

Aleva might be worse than Joe Dean, and that's saying something.
