What positive has Alleva brought to LSU in his tenure as AD?

He made tiger stadium look a lot better and he hired Will Wade. That’s about it

(no message)

Hmmmmm tough question. I got nothing

Did you forget who hired Will Wade?

He’s proven he knows how to manage revenue growth and facilities improvements.

He’s abysmal at personnel matters. He’s yet to have a non-contentious hiring or departure of a coach in a major sport.

He helped Fulton get reinstated I guess. That's all I got.

But is that something that happened because we have Joe Alleva?

I mean, any AD would've done this to keep up in the arms race. What positive does Alleva, specifically, bring to the table that other AD's don't?

you could say this about basically any AD.

right. i obviously meant in the sec

Even though how he handled the process with hiring a new head football coach was questionable, frustrating, and poor in general; Ed O was a good hire... so far. That’s hard to argue considering the success he had this year which was a significant improvement compared to Miles’ downward trend. 2 seasons is a decently quick rebound, and high hopes are held leading into his 3rd season, not to mention the incoming top 5 class. The players love him and the media gravitates toward him in a positive way.

Wade was a great hire, but Allevas’ involvement was small.

Development and renovations of facilities are definitely his strength, but there is still much more he can do.

Getting Kristian Fulton back was great and appreciated.

We all know his weaknesses.
