re: What’s your biggest gripe with Alleva

This looks like his best move yet. When are people going to get over it and realize that O is doing a good job?
It isn't that O is doing a good job. He's greatly exceeded expectations thus far.
But you can't deny that the process which produced O as the head coach was a textbook example of what not to do. It was a staggering amount of mismanagement, even down to the presentation of a contract for Orgeron that was written for Tom Herman with only the salary changed.

His completely incorrect actions and words whenever he makes a public statement or appearance.

my biggest gripe is that he somehow manages to screw up everything he touches. Name one situation that he has handled properly? From Jimbo, to Miles, to Herman and O, and now to Wade. You would think that eventually the law of averages would come around but I'm sure he would screw that up as well.

Honestly, the current WBB situation is easily the most outrageous. I don't really care that much about women's basketball, but I can't fathom how Fargas got an extension instead of a pink slip.
Most of the other stuff that Alleva has done is at least somewhat debatable. There is just no defense for Fargas.

Mine is the chicken little mentality of Alleva...so tired of his the sky is falling attitude ....dude is a WIMP

He sucks at everything he gets involved in. Plain and simple.

Agree with screwing with football tailgating. The $20 to $60 a vehicle (and never knowing which or what time), really screws with the game day experience.

I don't know that it's so much a chicken little thing. It's a lack of conviction thing.
Joe Alleva won't put his job on the line for anything he really believes. He thinks Miles needs to go, but he won't stand by that call. Thinks Wade shouldn't be suspended, but won't fight F. King on that. And on, and on. It's never his fault, and it's always somebody else's call that he's saddled with - but that's because he's never willing to say "This is my best call, and if you don't like it then fire me."
In short, he's a yes man. And I don't need to pay a yes man 750K - I can get a yes man for 75K.

I’ve posted this list several times over the years. Updated for this debacle.
Alleva's Bad:
Screwing up firing Les Miles in 2015
Screwing up the football coaching search in 2016
Screwing up football gameday experience.
Allowing the basketball team to bow out of postseason play in 2016
Getting worked over by the Florida AD and SEC in 2016
Screwing up the hiring of Softball coach Pat Murphy.
Hiring Trent Johnson.
Hiring Johnny Jones.
Canada as OC debacle.
Suspension of Will Wade
Alleva's Good:
Hiring Beth Torina (although he initially screwed it up)
Hiring of Will Wade
Posted on 4/17/19 at 5:52 am to geauxtigers456
My biggest gripe is that he’s still employed by LSU
Posted on 4/17/19 at 6:04 am to geauxtigers456
Easily Les Miles 2015. Should have let him go that night (not that I wanted Les fired) just so we could watch him bow out like Chollie. Then he caved again to people.
Matt Canada situation with O.
Trent Johnson hire.
Florida debacle.
Jeez. That's about half.
And of course, blabbing to the media about what WW "should have done" at SEC tourney.

Duke Lacrosse case
He got hired at LSU after that.
Same, how he ever got another job as an AD is baffling. Could only happen in Louisiana.
Posted on 4/17/19 at 6:17 am to geauxtigers456
It's simple really. When we need a leader to drive the public image of LSU athletics in a positive way he has continued to fail. When we need to show strength he has continued to fail. Basically anytime a public facing decision or posture needs to be made he has continued to fail.
