Again, we supposedly made some great pitch and AT turned it down without even knowing what the offer was at UT?
How does that reflect poorly on LSU? AT looks awful, this supposed sooper genius future NFL GM can't read a contract or get an offer in writing. UT looks like they perhaps negotiated in bad faith.

LSU is the only one that handled the situation like they should have. Should Orgeron have reviewed AT's offer from UT?

Just shows how appealing the guys making the pitch may seem to those with other options. Or maybe it shows that no real pitch was made at all but Delly did Prince’s bidding as usual and wrote it up to make the admin look good and the fans feel better about him leaving, which is even more troubling on many levels.
seems like you REALLY want LSU to be at fault or O/Alleva to look incompetent in this situation and are bending over backwards to do so.

"troubling on many levels"

Either they made an effort to keep him or they didn't.

If they did and AT was so set on leaving that he turned them down without even knowing what the offer at UT was, AT looks dumb but it also shows that the situation in the admin just may not be that appealing at the moment to those with other options.

If they didn't, which would be troubling in and of itself, and the local media is just printing out whatever our admin tells them to to keep the fans sedated then yes that is even more troubling.
