Miles and Alleva made this mess. Chavis was wise to move on. Cam was making equal pay and he has witnessed first hand the decline of his former boss and program. Sumlin is on the ascent, with more hunger and imagination and an AD who has an eye for talent.

Alleva = Joe Dean redux. He needs to be removed. Once the new AD is in place, he will put his people in which means adios Lester.

Well, Sumlin is 0-3 vs LSU.

I'm moving on. Alleva isn't going anywhere so I'm going to live with it.

I hate CLM and Alleva but there is nothing that can be done about it now. They thought that they had the upperhand in the negotiations, but they were so wrong

Maybe you should get over Chavis leaving and move on. I don't want a guy who leaves LSU in the manner that Chief did. We could be in for an even bigger hire so relax.

Why does a North Carolina fan care about LSU's coaching situation?

The board of directors makes the call not the athletic director. He just implements what he is told.

from a business POV, LSU was wise to let Chavis move on.

from a coaching POV, the next guy will determine whether that was a wise decision.

Getting rid of 3rd and Chavis is a mess? Besides the man wanted guaranteed contract even if Miles was gone. That's ridiculous. Let him go fack up the 2 minute drill at College Station.

are you kidding? The AD is there to run the business. LSU is making money hand over fist. His job is not in jeopardy. and I'm no Alleva fan either.

Sunlin has done nothing. This was a money play.

This. Yes - there was the quibbling about money, but Chavis is no fool. He sees a program in decline and wishes to no longer be associated with it. There is no more upside at LSU and no reasonable chance for another NC.

I agree there, but thats all.

There is no reason that LSU should have went to the last game of the season without knowing if he would be back. He should have either be resigned, or not coached the game...bottom line.

Sumlin is on the ascent...
he took over a team with these players already on the roster:

Johnny Manziel (QB) - Heisman winner
Mike Evans (WR) - 7th pick in the 2014 NFL draft
Jake Matthews (OL) - 6th pick in the 2014 NFL draft
Luke Joeckel (OL) - 2nd pick in the 2013 NFL draft
Cedric Ogbuehi (OL) - projected first round pick
Christine Michael (RB) - rivals 5 star

he went 6-2 in the SEC, then 4-4, then 3-5.

"on the ascent"
