re: Odd feeling that Alleva let this get out of hand....

Alleva is an image guy and has been waiting for this opportunity. The whole Miles clause with the Chavis situation shows clearly that Alleva was counting the days till he could get rid of Les. Tough situation for a coach when you don't have full support from above. But, I can understand Alleva not wanting any more buyout problems if a change was inevitable. If Alleva was handcuffing Les with the DC hire, he should damn well have his guy lined up. Otherwise he is as poorly prepared as our team was yesterday.
