Alleva said he knew what was going to happen when he walked into the building.
“I mean, the fans … Will’s winning and he’s not coaching,” Alleva said. “And, of course, I’m going to get the blame for it. That’s part of my job,
“You know what, my job is to be there and support the players,” he said. “That’s why I was there, and it didn’t change because Will wasn’t coaching.”
quote:
That night, even though many fans unleashed their anger on Alleva over Wade’s suspension, he said his job was to “protect the institution and the integrity of the institution.”
quote:
When asked what he would say to the fans, Alleva paused and said, “You know, I really wouldn’t say much to them. I believe we did the right thing.
“It’s not all about winning. A lot of people just care about winning. … Winning is not the end of what we do. Our job is to prepare young people for the rest of their lives. If there is, and I use the word strongly, if there’s any cheating involved that is not winning, OK? That is not winning.”

I get the vibe that it was more than just Alleva a decision on this! Sounds to me the BOS and President forced him to make the decision. What a coward for not standing up to them!!

How did he prepare the Duke lacrosse team for the rest of their lives?

Wow frick that guy.

The guy still thinks the proper course of action in regards to any press is to react rashly and irrationally in under 24 hours.

What do y'all expect? We keep buying tickets. If you truly want to make a difference, stop spending your money on LSU. That is the only thing that will get their attention.

Absolutely. Which is why I know most of the complainers here probably never sniffed middle management
