It's depressing and infuriating.

Based on what I've seen so far I hope Miles sticks around awhile because I don't want Alleva anywhere near a football hire.
quote:
It's no secret Alleva hires cronies with whom he has connections over qualified coaches.
quote:
"Duke's last president, Nan Keohane, made a terrible choice when she selected Alleva as athletic director in 1998," wrote well-respected sportswriter John Feinstein in a 2007 column for the Washington Post. "Everyone at Duke knew that Alleva was a pleasant man whose next original idea would be his first, someone whose main asset when applying for the job was the fact that his racquetball partner was Mike Krzyzewski."
quote:
Dan Radakovich was our man and we let him go for this assclown we have now.
quote:
He may wind up being the worst AD in LSU history,
quote:
"Alleva, 56, is well-respected for sustaining high standards of excellence and integrity in athletic programs, hiring the finest coaches in the country and the high level of success achieved by student-athletes."
Does that include hiring Ted Roof, who went 6-45 while heading the mockery of a football program under Alleva's watch? What about Bill Hiller, who led Duke Baseball to a 121-214 record after Alleva hired him?
quote:
Guys I don't post much, but I definitely wanted to chime in on this one. That whole Duke lacrosse thing, and Alleva's handling thereof really bothers the crap out of me...I do think that that one particular incident, and how he handled it, is pretty telling.
It definitely took CYAing to a new level, and I'm not sure we'd want Mr. Alleva in the trenches if the going got tough, or if he ever had to make a decision as important as the hiring a head football coach.
