Derick E. Hingle-USA TODAY Sports

LSU athletic director Joe Alleva spoke at the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation Quarterback Club on Tuesday to provide updates about the athletic program and urged fans to be “patient” with LSU coach Ed Orgeron.

Orgeron, who is in the middle of his first season at LSU as full-time head coach, started slowly with two bad losses to Mississippi State and Troy but has quickly rebounded to put the Tigers back on track.

Alleva commended him for "righting the ship" and began his speech by joking about not having to watch game film with Orgeron this week:

Alleva also provides updates about facility upgrades, the possibility of beer sales in Tiger Stadium along with cheaper football ticket prices in the future.

Unless he was offering his resignation, I don't care the hear from this clown

So if u stay true to yourself u shouldn't care what the football team does the rest of the season. Alleva = rough start on the front end of his tenure as LSU AD. 2017 LSU football season = rough start on the front end of their season. Let it play out u might be in for a pleasant surprise. After reading his quotes, if he is true to his words, both Alleva and LSU football are trending in the same direction. ??

Well I’ll be damned, he sounds competent. Still want him gone lol

OchoDedos•78 months

Lowering ticket prices and beer sales? PR campaign to save his sorry arse.

WJ•78 months

He's a baboon. Im not buying his ACC BS.

ibleedprplngld•78 months

frick that guy.

marklsu•78 months

Gives silence, and dodges during embarrassing moments, and times to criticize decision making. Walks to the podium as the team rebounds some. The problem Joe is that you gave O the buyout, you flubbed firing Les, you gave Les the buyout, and in general, you make horrible decisions. Don't take a PR tour now.

blaine159•78 months

he needs to go, sorry I cant stand to look at or listen to this dude. What a joke for an AD.

texastigerr•78 months

He is the worst thing to ever happen to LSU Athletics. He needs to go.

Mr. Hangover•78 months

He’ll be gone after football season

ByUselves•78 months

Sounds almost too good to be true. Usually, when that happens, it's generally BS.

Genestealer55•78 months

He’s a charlatan. And he’s desperate. And he sucks

Lebowski•78 months

He should wear a dunce cap when in public

There wasn't any gaps in recruiting. O secured 3 of the states top 10. The lowest we've had in 12 years. Juluke failed to sign a RB and was fired. But that wasn't going to hurt this season it was for next season. Grimes has recruited great but hasn't been able to develop them on the line and because of that we've had some transfer out. The rest have been injuries and discipline so we've led in freshman seeing time.

Sounds like Joe reads tRant

thanksjhester•78 months

Joe definitely reads the rant lol

TigerNlc•78 months

Joe is tutoring athletes when he isn't watching game film.

They can't even figure out how to sell cold bottled water, no way they figure out how to sell beer.

fatboydave•78 months

Beer. It's beer. The missing link. Coach O and a Natty depends on beer. A Natty beer.

CharlesLSU•78 months

Reading anything about him gets my blood boiling. Screw Alleva. He should never have been hired in the first place. It’s pathetic. While we will let O play his hand, Alleva has played his on several occasions and failed. LSU is far too good to have this incompetent excuse for an AD be at the controls.

partywiththelombardi•78 months

considering how much revenue beer sales alone would generate for LSU I am surprised LSU took the "high road" this long. Beer sales should have long been implemented.

Read above... it’s the SEC, NOT LSU dictating those terms.

alumni95•78 months

It’s because the SEC Office sits squarely on the buckle of the Bible Belt.

Anemone•78 months

Stupid Bible Belt hypocrites.

alumni95•78 months

“Joe Alleva talks about Ed O, et al.” But did the BoS y’all about Alleva? THAT is the question.

Skooter•78 months

Uhhhhhh. I don't see a question

alumni95•78 months

*talk about Alleva
