First off, Coach O will be a better head coach the Les Miles. 2nd, there were better coaches out there to be had, and I mean better than Jimbo, Herman and O. Last, Alleva mishandled this entire Miles transition starting with last year. Alleva must go.

Negotiation isn't giving and giving more and waiting for your target's window. At some point, you have to draw a line, both with regards to time and money.

If the story is true that Alleva refused to be held hostage by Herman's timeline with Texas and that the money discussion had gotten unpalatable, then you could easily argue that Alleva did the right thing from a negotiation perspective.

Now, you could certainly still bemoan the O hire, but not due to negotiation skills.

We have winner!!

Cogent and spot on commentary on the Rant. Who'd a thunk it?

If it's true that Herman covets the Texas gig more than LSU, no money would have brought him to Baton Rouge. Texas has far more to offer than LSU above money. Only the homers on this forum can't see that.

Every hire that he has made has been questionable and the only one that seems to be panning out is Torina and that hire wasn't his first choice. Murphy accepted the job and they threw a party/presser only for him to turn it down afterwards.
