re: Anyone have a feeling the hire will be underwhelming?

With this administration? Absolutely. I have no faith they can hire a good coach here and Alleva's past hires in the entire AD prove this. Let's not forget how he handled the situation last year and now this clusterfrick. I agree, change needed to be made but the way they did it here was very shortsighted. Forget anything about money, it's arrogance. Don't be surprised if coaches say thanks but no thanks to even 6 million+ paydays by the way this administration just axed Miles without at least waiting until the end of the season. It could've been handled much better especially a guy who did so much for the program. Yes, we sucked the past few years but they could've at least let him retire or something at the end of the year. Mutual agreement, anything but this.

I'm sure many would love the job here but it also wouldn't surprise me they don't want in on this baggage. Alleva really needs to go. He's a terrible AD. Always has been and always will be.
