No shite?

Don't know much about the earlier ones, but unless they also came out and said the goal wasn't to win championships but to be in the hunt, amongst many other completely inexplicable things, I have a hard time believing any one is worse than joe alleva.

Lost two of the best coaches LSU ever had. Started the march to ending on campus tailgating and institute paid parking thus killing the game day atmosphere on campus. Yankees have no idea what we were about but we are about nothing but yankees now.

That one of lsu’s most popular and successful sports went backwards to the point of not making the post season after having won 5 champs in a 10 year period

And he hired LSU's best WBB coach in school history
5 consecutive final fours
and then administration caved in and made her step down after she had a relationship with a player that had already graduated.

Is this one of those threads where the answer is so obvious, everyone toys with other responses?

Brodhead actually did a good job in dragging LSU into the 20th century. He transformed LSU athletics into a money-making enterprise. His mistakes were pissing off just about everybody.
Paul Dietzel left a mess and LSU was about a million bucks in the red when Brodhead took over.
Joe Dean was really good at watching the bottom line, and not much else. I thought Skip did a good job except for hiring Smoke as head coach. At least he realized the error of his ways and fired him.
And Alleva is a trainwreck.

Bob Brodhead was despised but he hired Skip Bertman

I really dislike Alleva a lot
Only positive I can find under him is facility upgrades for many of the sports.

Joe Dean sucked pretty bad.

Dean and Alleva in no particular order.
