If they can Wade and Alleva heads another search how can you continue to spend money and support this department?

It's a circus sideshow that is basically saying go frick yourself, we do what we want.

I love LSU and support my Alma Mater but man if they can Wade and are we are still stuck with Alleva how am I supposed to support this by giving them my money knowing I'm supporting someone and an administration I despise.

Do you just turn a blind eye because its LSU?

Us giving our money is essentially supporting the brass that calls the shots currently.

I'm not going to quit going to softball games and gymnastics meets because Alleva is a dumbass. It's not fair to those teams and the kids.

right and I agree, it is about the kids, but damn man it's tough spending money knowing I'm backing a group that is spineless and lacks any type of leadership whatsoever.

I agree 100%. LSU will probably not miss my $200 for two season tickets though. Just the fact that anyone has been able to pay $100 for a season ticket for the last 10 years is a joke. The joke is probably on me but I definitely got my money’s worth this season. Terrible ending but it was a good ride.

My wife and I have multiple degrees from LSU and have had MBB season tickets since we graduated in the 1970s. If our purchase of LSU tickets were based on competent LSU administration, we would have gotten rid of them decades ago as we have had consistent less than good administration of our athletics.

I guess I'm just looking at the future here.

we can Wade, I'm supposed to just blindly buy in and support Alleva on his next search considering what just happened?

it's a kick in the nuts because of course you want to support the school but I'm essentially supporting Alleva and King.

1. Wade needs to go.
2. Alleva also needs to go.

These are indisputable facts. The AD definitely needs a shakeup. We also need to shot can the cheating frick that is our Men’s Basketball Coach.

Yep. You support your teams. You support the young men and women, not the target of your anger which happens to be old fricks in suits.

We don't know absolutely know what is going to happen, but if it is eventually shown that Will Wade cheated and gets LSU slammed with NCAA penalties, will you still support him? Will you?

I don't care for Alleva or Alexander, and I wish they would be replaced. But do you support Will Wade regardless? It seems the majority of this board wants him even if he cheated and gets LSU hammered by the NCAA. Very odd.

but that's the ultimate conundrum right?

we are all gonna pay because we love the University, Alleva and King have has us by the balls essentially, and there's nothing we can do about it because we are passionate and love it.

Bad situation all around. Supporting your team keeps the guys in suits employed, and yet they seem to make endless bad decisions that affect the teams you support.

LSU is my alma mater and I like watching sports.

That’s my answer.

In no way, if Wade is fired, but Alleva is still here, will I support or watch LSU athletics till Alleva is gone.

This is a fricking fact

I'm with you, BUT most folks won't "pull the money." They'll talk a great game, but when it comes down to it, their a*ses 'll be right there in them seats. Their lives are 99% LSU FOOTBALL.

I will not. And as sad as it would make me to boycott the players at hand, it's for the greater good long haul. As until Alleva and Alexander are jettisoned(and they will be in due time when coalitions of the willing are at hand)..

With these two in leadership, LSU isn't gonna sniff that 1.5B Fund Drive by passing the hat with the common folks, it would take the few Billionaires and heavy Millionaires to empty their pockets to attempt to cover for the defections..

And some of those folks are amongst the Lipsey movement and/or amongst the PO'd..so good luck with that!

P.S. Any move to relieve WW before his subpoena date, is Foxx releasing Smollet..a unilateral whitewash of proper justice not being allowed to play out.
