Aleva is ruining LSU sports for me.

I'm an old guy. I've been around to see Pistol Pete, Tommy Casanova and all the great LSU baseball teams of the 90's. There has been plenty disappointment along the way, along with a lot of great memories.
But, for some reason, this latest episode with the BOS and Coach Wade has been the hardest for me to get over. Basketball was fun again and you could see a potential dynasty in the making. It didn't have to come all crashing down like this. All Aleva had to do is trust in his coach and back him, as any boss worth is salt would do.
I know I would not want to work for this man again if I was coach Wade. So sad that the entire LSU fan base must now suffer through another major disappointment.
I'll always love LSU but its getting harder and harder to stay emotionally invested.
Now go ahead and insult away.

Sorry but I appreciate Alleva doing everything he can to keep the program free of sanctions. I don't want Skylar Mays to play his senior year on a team banned from the postseason.
Will Wade had a Scaramucci moment recorded and screwed the program in the process. It was very very stupid regardless of what the "offer" was. He got emotional and ran his mouth.

There's a difference between cautious and retarded.

Post season? Next year? That’s funny.

Are you serious or is this a joke?

A bunch of people on this board are ruining LSU sports for me. I get it... I do. I root for my Tigers but damn, some you guys are seriously delusional at times. I hope Some of you learn how to be a realist and more rational in your comments and judgments.
When it is proven that Wade did in fact cheat, will you all still have his back? I wanted this to be real but always questioned how the hell are we getting these guys? This is going to suck when the hammer gets dropped.

You're talking about KneeJerk Joe who relied on media reports twice now (Duke Lacrosse and LSU) to base his decisions on.
Alleva is a full-blown retard and has done nothing right for LSU Athletics. Nothing. His lowlights: increasing parking prices, Lack of tailgaiting on Nicholson, contracts with Aramark, hiring Orgeron in his "national search" to "I am the search."
Alleva should HAVE NEVER BEEN HIRED in the first place after the Duke fiasco.

LSU fan, New Jersey. Now this is making sense.

You should ask Joe about his lapse of integrity, when he allowed Smart to play an entire season, having known about the transcript in Oct'18.

Will Wade screwed things up and put the program in a bad light. Instead of taking responsibility he is "me, me me" by demanding to coach again instead of wishing the team well and holding any other comment back until after the trial.

Being overly emotional and reactionary are traits of Alleva, not Wade.

On the contrary. Thumbs up!

No need. I think the majority feels the same. Good post old timer

For most of us I think this is just the latest frick up in this administration's comedy of errors.
Trent Johnson hire - Fail
Johnny Jones hire - Fail
Miles/Fisher - Fail
Herman/Orgeron -Fail
Fargas extension - Fail
Corporatizing LSU football/tailgating - Fail
Now the Wade fiasco, which is virtually a mirror image of the reaction to the Duke lacrosse scandal.
They've proven time and time again they are completely incompetent. Anyone who has any faith left in this administration is lost.

How Alleva got the LSU AD job, I’ll never know. Just an all around bottom of the barrel AD. Joe Deanesk

That team has worked their asses off all season and gone through horrible adversity (Wayde Sims' death being #1.)
THEY DESERVE THEIR COACH IN THE POST SEASON. LSU's ADMIN is doing the team a disservice by not allowing Wade to coach.
If Wade is cleared, there will always be an asterisk behind 2018 season, even though we were SEC champs.
As far as Orgeron, whether he works out or not doesn't excuse the EFF up of Alleva's so called "national search" and all of the other dumb coaching hires/extensions.

Because he can be controlled. No one else is going to hire him.

What if the employee was lying? You know, Wade never did business with Dawkins? How does that sound now? At least in question?
Wade making offers to non-athletes to get athletes to campus? Does that sound like something that is within the rules? Or more like a major NCAA violation?
At what point is an employer justified in questioning a subordinate's ethical lapses?
Of course, here, the employer allowed the employee a chance to explain. The employee refused.
Again, at what point is an employer justified in seeing that backing his employee may be more detrimental to the company than it is worth?
I'll sit back and read.
