I just re-read the statements it just says the game remains as scheduled. He didn't say under no circumstances will LSU not play in Houston. It's insinuated that it's subject to change, but maybe you're so dense that he has to clarify even more for you.

Yeah, not every coaching hire works out. See Alabama's 2 hires before they lucked into Saban. See Texas, USC's prior 2, and countless other schools. What matters is when you finally get it right.

Blah, blah, blah. Already been though this. Not going to argue with you when you probably know the facts but continue to ignore them.

My position? That position isn't that the game will be played in Houston.

That position is that alleva is not in charge here, nor is the byu ad. However, YOU think he is. As it turns out, they are all meeting as we speak. But instead, you get on here and act like a childish kid blaming aleeva on something he has no control over. I hope you are 18 and not 30 something.

Hey, if you don't like objective analysis, I apologize. The guy has by no means been perfect, but looking at results, no one could possibly argue that he is an abject failure.

By the way, I can still say this because I'm typing.

If it is in Provo...LSU needs an extra day to prepare in the hiher 4,551 ft elevation. Players need the time to get used to higher altitude

Not all of but he was in control of LSU and he did a terrible job of getting LSU's position out there and why.

Instead of being proactive he reacted, he allowed Foley make him his bitch in the area of public opinion.

He had as much to do with that as he does with byu...which is only a voice...no power.



Lol.

Here you are again suggesting the AD has no power...despite this actually being his job.

Under your imbecile level analysis what do we pay him for? Being a cock holster?

I would not have allowed LSU to be painted the bad guy as they were without correcting the narrative.

But to begin with I would have gotten LSU's position out there ahead of the issue. Call a press conference of ahead of time stating everything about the situation. Say that LSU cannot and will not cancel a game on it's schedule for Florida and the SEC. That we intend to play Florida on that weekend but we do not care where it may take place. Put all of the eggs in Florida's basket. Then stick to it. The SEC had no power to force the issue yet he allowed Florida to play him. They never should cancelled a game to play the florida game.

I agree, there is some validity to that. He could have done a better job with the PR. I'm not sure the idiots at ESPN would have ever taken LSU's side no matter what he did though.

LSU should never agree to play at 5,000 ft. nor in Dallas where there will be no rooms cause all rooms will be filled with Houston refugees......

This is a no brainer..... gotta be the DOME....

Come on ESPN don't pull another Robert Lee incident.... do the right thing

It won't be Provo. 1. It has to be a neural site due to sponsorships. 2. BYU's stadium can't hold the amount of tickets already sold.
