Case 1: Pat Murphy. Alleva shot for the moom and spent the whole time selling LSU to Murphy. Murphy didn't really want the job so he reveres field and the situation was embarrassing.
I don't think it was all that embarrassing...
quote:
Case 2: Trent Johnson. Again Alleva picks someone out of nowhere and convinces them to come to LSU. That person had no passion for this state or university. Epic fail.
Out of nowhere? Johnson was one of the most sought after coaches in the NCAA at that time! Not Alleva's fault that it didn't work out.
quote:
Case 3: Nikki Caldwell. It worked this time. Alleva is 1 for 3.
Um, he did also hire Maineri - does he not get credit for that? That has worked our pretty well, no matter what the uber-negatigers say.
(before you respond without reading...yes, I now know Alleva did not hire Maineri)

Alleva didn't hire Mainieri. Mainieri came the year before Alleva got here. Alleva's first hire was Trent Johnson.

Don't go overboard. He was considered a good, solid hire, but certainly not some blockbuster coup.
