They should all shut up at this point, but here it is. Far cry from the done deal claimed by DA. Believe what you choose, but it was never happening. Move on.

If you believe that I have some ocean front property to sell you. If Miles was safe, why allow the scene that occurred in Tiger Stadium on Saturday to happen?

Even more damning was an interview Jimbo Fisher gave this week on the Rusillo show and he basically pleaded the fifth about the possibility of coming to LSU.

BOS was never on board. If they're not on board, it doesn't happen. Period.

Miles stated he hadn't talked to Alleva before Saturday.

Miles specifically said he didn't know he still had a job until after the TAMU game.

I'd believe Miles over Joe any day.

You know what happens if you start stirring up a big pile of cow crap is that you can get it all over you and you end up being the one that smells bad!!!

You'd have to be an idiot to not see Alleva is trying to save face and his arse now. How naive can people be.

Alleva left Miles hanging in the wind for 3 weeks... because he had Miles back and nothing else was happening.

Ok. Enjoy the fairy tale.

Should have told himself that while AD at Duke. Alleva isn't a leader, or accountable, he's a penny pinching frickwad circa Joe Dean.

Damage control for a ship on the ocean bottom. Even if Aleva had any credibility, no one is buying.

For credible analysis, read this and this.

The constant leaks and speculation by multiple parties to the media in an attempt to undermine Miles' ability to do his job and sway public opinion in favor of his ouster failed in a manner so spectacular that the farce will become an example of how not to do business in major college football for decades to come.

One more from me...

Fans like you are all worried about repeating the 90s. It started in the late 80s JUST LIKE THIS. And you're embracing it.

LSU could have had Spurrier after Arnsparger. Instead LSU promotes Archer on Arnsparger's recommendation. LSU fails again. Arnsparger hires Spurrier 2 years later and UF 90s commence. UF 90s could have been LSU 90s. LSU could have hired Spurrier in 2005. Instead they allow Saban to jet in and out on a Dolphins plane.

Now LSU has a chance to hire Jimbo and LSU does an LSU. Politics, simple minded thought, no foresight.

frick Joe Alleva for trying to spin it now. The whole situation is a disgrace from the way Miles was treated to the way LSU is now stuck in a time warp.

Mark Emmert, for all the other shite he's done, would never allow this to happen at LSU. And that frame of thought is the ONLY frickING REASON LSU paid Saban $1.6mil in 1999 to come to LSU. He had vision.

Quit saying this. This is a message board called the Rant. This is the place to rant about LSU sports issues we care about. If you have moved on, good for you. No one makes you read these threads. Some of us are still pissed about it.

Alleva controls the crowd now too? Look, he handled it poorly, but the fact is that Alleva's job is to make recommendations. Perhaps he did that, but he did not negotiate, he did not make an offer. That's because he has to have FKA and the BOS with him and they were not going to make a move.

Occam's Razor - learn wtf it is.

From reading the transcript, I feel like he called this interview at the request of Les to have an LSU official give him some strong public backing while he is out there answering all these questions about his future with recruits and their families.
