Dean was hilariously worse than Alleva.
Dean was a cheapskate, but I think he was a far superior administrator to Alleva. Dean was turning a profit without the current TAF commitment level, a losing football team, a stadium that held 20,000 fewer people, no bowl revenue sharing, no SEC Network money, and TV contracts overall were a fraction of what were during Alleva's tenure.
Like Alleva was awful at evaluating coaches with his sole criteria being are they cheap. Dean was by no means a visionary, but that he was able to bring the AD into the black is nothing short of miraculous. If Alleva had been AD in the 80s our Athletic department would have been hemorrhaging money.
