I mean according to the Rant he is the worst AD. Does this mean we got Wade in spite of Alleva? One thing I do know if the Wade hire god forbid goes south,Alleva will be the first to be blamed.

He is the worst. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while.

He had to hire someone, should he get credit if it works out? You could have had an athletic department intern make the hire. His track record of gross incompetence doesn't give him the benefit of the doubt.

OMG Alleva competently performed an expected part of his job! Let's throw a celebration and heap praise upon him!

Too early. Wade has not coached a single game at LSU yet. Duh.

This is correct. Let's not pretend Alleva made this informed steal, Wade wanted the job and was cheaper than Crean that's why he's here not because Alleva is smart.

While there is reason to be optimistic, Wade's record at LSU is 0-0.

It's going to be a few years before we know if this was a good hire or not

Curley Hallman beat #5 Alabama in Tuscaloosa and broke their 31 game home win streak. He still finished 5-6 that year and was a terrible coach.

Do you think he's done a good job as AD since he's been at LSU?

Should he not be blamed in that case?

The Wade hire looks good on paper. I wouldn't call it a homer type of hire...but it's a solid A-/B+ hire. Having said that, you have to wait and see how much success Wade will have to completely evaluate.

This is his 3rd basketball hire. If he got this one right, he'll be batting .333.

Sure Alleva gets the credit for the Wade hire just as he got credit for hiring Johnson, Jones, Caldwell and Torina.


And I hope Wade does great.
