LSU Fans - Why Were You Willing to Give Alleva a Raise in 2011?

In remembrance of LSU's last day of football relevance, I thought it was interesting to look at just how close LSU was to potentially remaining on top.
In 2011 Joe Alleva was offered the Tennessee Athletic Director position, but instead of letting him go, the LSU bigwigs decided to outbid Tennessee and give Alleva a raise. Clearly in 2011, LSU was willing to make the tough decisions to keep their talent in-house. They refused to let an SEC opponent up and take someone of importance.
So LSU fans, what has changed in your athletic department since 2011? Why were y'all willing to give Joe Alleva a raise to keep him from going to an SEC foe, yet you rolled over when Chavis left? What gives? Is Alleva that important to the success of your program?
And stop blaming these DCs for using your program for a raise. Clearly your athletic director doesn't have a problem with it. In fact, he's a real pro at it.

That's interesting. First time I've heard that he was actually offered the position. Tennessee definitely dodged a bullet.

All LSU. All the time.

How many jokes can you make about the same subject, my god. And the LSU fans don't decide on athletic raises, we all wanted Alleva gone.

Another LSU thread? whoa.

Why did we give kennedy an extension? Because A&M thinks he's the best coach for a&m?

You still haven't told the board how old you were the last time you watched A&M beat LSU in football.

All LSU all the time.

in 2011 it made sense to give fricking everyone raises.

Why are you so obsessed about LSU to the point you're looking up our AD's contract history? this is getting so beyond pathetic

LSU:

And TAMU didn't play in a championship game

The same reason we don't understand why Sumlin gets paid so much and has a job......
They both suck

When did we get to vote on it? Was it one of those Verizon Wireless sponsored polls during a game?
