re: Why is there so much hate for Alleva?

He's actually one of the better ADs in college athletics. The tards here are just too simpletons to see beyond the basketball records. There's a lot more to being AD than most of our Simple Jacks can understand. His job is to raise money and improve facilities as much as it is to win football games(a job he has very little direct influence on). He's bungled some PR moves and comes off as a douche, but he does the job he's being paid for rather well. It's just the criteria his employers judge him on is significantly different than Joe Fan, most of whom can't forgive him for his mishandling of a very unfortunate--while wildly public--situation that happened years before he stepped foot on LSU's campus. And if we're honest with ourselves, in today's pc climate, he erred on really the only side he could have. But no matter to the insecure, small-penised Louisianans. We don't just want good coaches or ADs--that's an ancillary by-product. We want ones that are revered and envied by the masses. If Bubba from Bama isn't jealous, he's not good enough.
