OK... TELL ME that you have FACTS that coach O would do worse than any other coach we could have hired..... Please tell me HOW you know..................
You don't KNOW the 5 star player will turn out better than the 2 star player.
But only a fricking tard picks the latter over the former given the choice.

What did Jimbo do to Florida? I didn't check the box score. How'd he do? What's his record like against Florida?

Alleva is lazy and without fight. He never acts in the best interest of LSU or fans. He does what is easiest, expediant and cheapest. He takes his ball and goes home because Herman wants to listen to Texas instead of getting on a plane and going to Texas to sell LSU. Oh my God, to think he might have to actually go close a deal with a guy on the fence. Who would ever think that someone making a clear life decision might need to be face to face with a future employer. He is scared to death of competition and does not have enough belief in LSU or love for LSU to sell LSU. If he loved this school he would not make a hire like Johnny Jones because Dale Brown insisted on it. Or any other coach just because THEIR dream job is LSU. It's about talent and big picture. Compare our the head coaches at LSU for basketball and football to that of other schools like TCU. Alleva's search never extended beyond Fisher, Herman or Orgeron and it's flat out lazy, irresponsible and malpractice and he needs to be fired.
This. Alleva would never make it in the real world of business. You have to check your feelings at the door and not get but hurt when the other guy does what's in his best interest. You can't just take your ball and go home when things get tough. Obviously Herman was their guy. Then get on the damn plane Friday after his game and don't leave until He's on the plane.He signed for 5 mil at Texas you think we can't pay that? Alleva really wanted O to do well so he could take the easy way out. I hope O does well but this could be 1986 all over again.

Well. Using your logic, hiring me to be LSUs head coach would be defensible because you can't PROVE I wouldn't do as well.

He is right. Alleva is in over his head. He needs to be fired before he makes any more hires.

The idiots really come out on this board. They ought to change LSU's nickname to the LSU Bitchers because that is what you all like to do. 1) Fisher won in a week ACC and because of Jamieous Winston 2) Tom Herman lost to Navy and SMU 3) Fedora was Les Miles #2 and yiu all would have had a meltdown over that had they hired him 4) PJ Fkeck is too young and would be eaten alive in the SEC according to some geniuses. 5) some wanted Gindy or Justin Fuentes, but others didn't and Fuentes would have a huge buyout that LSU would have had to pay and many of you all would have had a fit over that. Now Coach 'O' is a disaster. Don't complain about your wives giving you crap. Some you al, have more estrogen in you than them.

You sure do bitch a lot about people bitching.

I am just pointing the absurdity of it all. There was no coaching here ire that would have mad the fan bas happy, based on the posts other than Urnan Meyer or Nick Saban or Jim Hatprbaugh and I don't think they would be leaving their respective schools.

Your are pointing out the absurdity of people being pissed there wasn't a thorough, national search?
Alrighty.
Alrighty.

Look I will say there are better coaches that could have gotten a shot, but O is the coach and I hope he goes 10-2 next year...
Wait so 10-2 wasnt good enough for Les miles to keep his job yet if Ed Orgeron goes 10-2 then people should eat crow?
10-2 was considered shite with the amount of talent we have, right?

It's not the coaching hire!! It is the fact that no serious search was done. If due diligence is done, several candidates are interviewed and then Orgeron is the best choice, so be it. But that wasn't done!
To believe that the lone interview Friday night sealed the deal and allowed Alleva to tell Herman, "no thank you", is absurd. If that is all that took place then no serious coaching search was done.
The timing of this doesn't make sense either. Why did we have to announce Coach O right now? Other candidates are becoming available as the season ends. Why now? LSU had the biggest head start on every other team as far as who they wanted as a coach but it appears Alleva wanted Coach O all along and this is how it played out.
Some of us are upset at the process, not the hire.

I believe they talked to more than just the 'Big 2' and Ed O. But that doesn't matter either.
To your point, if they indeed did talk to more than that then the [valid] issue you have could have been easily resolved with just a little bit of PR and communication. So I can't blame you for feeling this way. It's either true or it could have been avoided easily.
The only difference between you and I is that I don't think it was that bad while you do think it was.
