re: Satisfied with mediocrity & no accountability - The Joe Alleva Story

When Les Miles was given his last contract revision Alleva said "it is not about winning Championships but being in the hunt for them", or something to that effect. You can argue that at any point in any teams season they are "in the hunt" for a Championship until they are not. So according to the standards that he laid out for the coach in the most important sport financially at LSU, year in and year out all sports are meeting his goals and are not mediocre. It's all about what you expect and accept, just as in life.
