AD Joe Alleva comments on protests and fan unrest directed at him:

quote:

“You know what, my job is to be there and support the players,” he said. “That’s why I was there, and it didn’t change because Will wasn’t coaching.”

...

When asked what he would say to the fans, Alleva paused and said, “You know, I really wouldn’t say much to them. I believe we did the right thing."

“It’s not all about winning. A lot of people just care about winning. … Winning is not the end of what we do. Our job is to prepare young people for the rest of their lives... if there’s any cheating involved that is not winning, OK? That is not winning.”


Added to OP.

hes clearly trying to bring some integrity and respectability back to a state and institution that is widely known for corruption and backchanneling, and all LSU fans can think to do is crucify him for it.

Imagine believing the sports boards and not your own officials who have actually seen info pertaining to the case

Is Joe Alleva brilliant? Probably not. But, why would he want LSU to fail or even achieve anything below their best?

According to them it's because Alleva is bending the knee to F. King, who "hates athletics."

Seriously.

Honest question, what is the reason for your weird obsessive nature regarding this LSU matter?

Obsessive nature? I simply started a thread and compiled the available information, adding to the OP an average of maybe once per day - for the benefit of the board, so as to reduce the clutter.

You're welcome.

so alleva is enjoying the championship celebration. yet, he suspended wade over the implication that wade cheated to win said championship. so logically, he should NOT be enjoying the championship. otherwise, don't suspend your coach because nothing's been decided yet.

Go read your own posts in this thread.

You started out upset that we were suggesting that Wade was suspended for refusing to meet with his administration, seen in these three posts:






You also ridiculed others in the thread for refusing to educate themselves, also seen here:




For not reading the blog post you linked here - "in case we want to get educated on the issue":




Which goes on to explicitly state this:





Any other questions?
