LSU fans shouldn't want Joe fired.
His culpability is negligence for letting the story leak from his department, but he's looking out for LSU's best interest here.
What? The President of the University put academics before Athletics (or more precisely, the politics around academics). His actions, while perceived as detrimental to the athletic program, we're aligned with his job description. Alleva is responsible for the AD. If he's ineffectual at making his case, he shouldn't have that position.
It's not worth discussing here, but the President of a flagship University is supposed to consider more than athletics. The AD has one job.

Considering the University wasn't going to be paying the buyout, F'King should've stayed out of it.

No, don't patronize me, I understand and maybe I should have expounded more. In the vacuum of analyzing Alleva, he is looking out for LSU's (the part he controls) best interest.
I believe King Alexander considered what he did in the best interest of LSU, the university. It sounded, but I didn't mean to, like I was implying Alexander wasn't looking out for LSU's best interest. However, on the merits of the course of action he took, I believe he did a very poor job at it.

Academics has nothing to do with private donors paying for a coaching change. But way to make that straw man. Hopefully nobody is stupid enough to believe anything that you have written. This wasn't about academics it was about.public perception.
