That Alleva, F. King Alexander, and the Board of Supervisors caved to the likes of Dan Wolken, Pat Forde and Dick Vitale isn’t surprising given LSU’s recent history. This is the same university that was going to fire Les Miles after the Texas A&M game in November 2015, changed their mind at halftime, extended his deal, only to fire him the following year.

The supposed people in charge of LSU have shown incompetence internally be it with wanting Jimbo Fisher to take over the football program from Miles, or going after Tom Herman to be the new man after Ed Orgeron’s interim stint. The people in charge looked like complete dopes in how they handed the Florida situation with Hurricane Matthew.

But now perhaps worst of all, the people in charge of LSU athletics look weak.

I've not read or heard anyone outside of ESPN supporting what LSU is doing. If major changes don't happen soon with the so called leadership at LSU, the damage will be virtually irreversible.

So are Alleva and Alexander in witness protection?

If I were them I would be, considering they are the two most hated mfers in Baton Rouge.

LSU just wrapped up a perfect 9-0 road record in conference play. Wade said “our guys enjoy that ‘us against the world’ when it’s just 30 of us against 10-12 thousand of the other folks.” By throwing Wade under the bus, you can add Joe Alleva and F. King Alexander to the 10-12 thousand.

They say you can take away the wins but you can never take away the memories. Whenever the season ends, this LSU team will undoubtedly be remembered fondly as the group that made basketball relevant in Baton Rouge again.

The people in charge of LSU, however, will be remembered as weak, incompetent cowards.

What if after Wade takes the stand, the NCAA isn’t able pin him for any wrongdoing, and the leadership who didn’t have the guts to stand behind their guy in his most trying time has to welcome him back?


That’s where CWW tells Alleva/F(uc)King to go frick themselves and quits.

This article is spot on in so many ways. I wish somebody would print out hundreds of copies and post them around campus before the game tonight. Sadly, knee jerk reactions and overall incompetence are par for the course when it comes to LSU athletics.
