How did he fight for Trent Johnson? In his press conference after Trent left he basically said it was best for all parties involved.


The first go round Dale and Collis campaigned for him but joe who had been in louisiana a month though he knew better coming from duke and hired a guy who spent his entire career in the west coming from Stanford carried by two lotto picks from palo alto to be a fit in louisiana.

Smart move.

So hiring the Coach of the Year in the Pac 12, traditionally a better overall basketball conference than the SEC, was a bad move? In hindsight, yes, but that's because none of us are confused with Nostradamus.

To his credit, Alleva then hired the guy he should have hired in the first place. You can't deny him credit for making the hire.

Johnny Jones coming to coach LSU in 2008-09 would have been an insane decision. He would have had one of the worst resumes of an SEC coach since Brady.
