LSU reported $22M in donations directly to the athletic department attributable to football for the 2016 fiscal year - that doesn't include TAF donations. You think that if LSU's program deteriorated to the point that we're barely making bowl games every year, that those contributions would only drop by a few million?

Agree to disagree on the expectations - I do not think Alleva believed we would be squeaking by to be bowl eligible. My thinkining is Alleva believed we would stay middle of the pack - not much dropoff from the past 5 years with Miles, but at a discount.

He holds onto Coach O as long as he can until the right coach comes around, or Saban leaves.

Explain to me otherwise, why would we hire Coach O?

He either isn't convinced we can win a championship, or is the stupidest person on the planet hiring a DL coach with a terrible, losing SEC HC record?
