I did a search and didn't see anything.

LSU related: How in the hell did LSU ever hire Alleva after this scandal? If you haven't seen this, you need to watch it! Can't believe how wrong so many reporters and others (Alleva) were!

Didn't say a word about Alleva in that doc.

More or less made the DA a bad guy; but I'm no Alleva supporter either.

I just watched this documentary today. I am not an Alleva fan either, but he had no choice in the Duke situation and it was not his fault. All of America was crying for the players and team to be suspended. He was handcuffed into a decision.

If you watched the documentary....then why would you be mad at alleva? His name was never even brought up. And he had no choices to really make.

Alleva had no choice, but to suspend the team for those few games. Once the joking email came out, the feds shut the team down.

I agree, though. That lacrosse team got the banana. All that woman did was make it harder for future rape victims.

It was not Alleva; Broadhead (president) was the one that immediately threw them under the bus. Also note that their school mates were all in for hanging them. Mob mentality is scary, which makes Tiger Rant scary.

That just shows how bad the media and journalist are today. The journalist was once a profession that people trusted and respected. The profession now is just narcissist people wanting to have their fame and being the first to report a news worthy issue. Those kids from Duke got royally screwed and I am glad they sued Duke. The DA ended up being disbarred and the lead investigator ended up committing suicide.

He was handcuffed then just like he is handcuffed now because of the LA budget crisis..he cares more about public perception than making the athletic Dept better.

Two-thirds of the faculty at Duke were complicit in going after the Lacrosse players.

Not sure if any have said, opps sorry.

On tonight with several repeats for the DVR.

A must watch.

Alleva was and is a douche.
