1. We may have won the game and been cheated out of it. Now nobody is going to talk about that; Alleva didn't even bring it up.
2. Unless it's something really bad, you don't fire your 11-year, multi-championship-winning coach midseason - you do that after the season is over.
3. Our goals are still in front of us, and with the talent we have you can't put it past Les to turn things around. Especially when we've found a really effective QB.

Edit: my bad, this applies to MILES

Alleva can gtfo

This couldn't be discussed in the other fire Alleva thread you made?

Have to fire both a king and alleva. But yeah.

He has been kiss of death. Pretty obvious if you read between the lines on what players are saying, why they are tweeting, what coaches are saying, what former and current coaches are saying outside LSU.

It's clear that alleva causes all sorts of bad karma throughout all the different athletic departments and the only reason we have sustained the football we have is les took it and shielded everyone completely from it and just ignored alleva. Some will say that ignoring him cost him his job. However you have to ignore someone you don't respect. It's just human nature. No one respects alleva in athletics. Did anyone hear what Chavis had to say about the firing? Chavis isn't really bitter; many of the other coaches have said the same. Nick Saban hit the nail on head by simply calling it a douchebag move. He's specifically calling out alleva. All the coaches talk to each other about their AD's and booster idiots and whatnot.

In summary the football program will not be successful under alleva and he has to go. We may win out under oeaux but only because he won't take shite from alleva and will shield players like miles did. Once oeaux is gone or demoted and the new coach is in you will all feel the full burn of alleva. He's just kiss of death.

Not to mention he destroyed people's lives at Duke because he has no fricking backbone-- which is why miles never respected him-- and we had no business hiring him in first place. If you look carefully at the program, alleva is why we are where we are because and coinciding with alleva.

1. Tiger Stadium looks better than it ever has... Drastically better.

2. Hiring a new AD would inevitably prolong the HC search because new AD would be hired before proceeding... We don't have the patience as a fanbase for 2 searches.

3. Alleva has been trying to give us what we wanted (Miles gone) for 2 years, and whether it was his call or not, it finally happenned.

I'm not for or against Alleva. I do think Alleva gets a lot of shite for really no reason.. An AD should be judged on $$$, brand awareness, and football hires. He hasn't even had the chance to make a football hire yet. We're healthier than we have ever been as an athletic department when it comes to money and brand power.

I guess you could say his basketball hires sucked, which they have, if you care about insignificant stuff that doesn't matter in the grand scheme of an athletic department in the SEC.
