Screw Alleva-he caused this mess. He didn't handle it well and caused it to spiral out of control. Sure there may be an upside to this for LSU but right now it is hurting LSU. Stupid move by AD, on top of an incredibly stupid move. TAF and Les should be mad at Alleva. He needs to go.

 sure Chavis personally informed Miles of his intentions. 

Legally, that might be enough to cause the buyout to be paid. 



My guess the question is if the terms rolled to 12/31/2015

If we are trying to sue over verbal it is petty

He came hard and got completely played. Dude is a numbers guy with no personal/social/crisis management skills. The poster that said he was a bean counter nailed it.

Now he is standing in the middle of the room with his pants down and is mad.

To an extent I agree with this. We often talk return on our coaching dollar investment. That's on Alleva. Maybe he picked wrong time and coach to fix it.

It will tell us alot if we get cheap with new hire.

well we just lost our DC to a divisional rival over money, and if we sue him on a weak claim it looks terrible

Alleva is not getting the 400k back.

And even if he got a little of it back it wouldn't be worth the legal fees and the bad pr.

He was a dick and got owned.

Wat?

The $1.2 mill he got to come here was virtually unheard of at the time for a college coach.

Absolutely Agree

If we are taking verbal agreement angle and the date is 12/31/14 (weak petty)

If the date rolled to 12/31/15 it might not he so weak and petty

We just lost our best coach to A&M over money. Think about that. Unfuc*ingbelievable! What a message that sends to coaches being interviewed and recruits. Bush league.
