Alleva is so bad! We all hate him.

He’s a complete twirp with zero leadership skills. None of his peers respect him.

He must interview like a boss because he sucks at everything else.

The guy has been at LSU for several years now. Did you just learn how to read an got all butthurt all of a sudden over what transpired at Duke?



What an asshat response. College freshman were 5 years old when this happened. Grade school children generally don't pay attention to the news.

Joe has been a piece of shite for long time.

Not even LSU deserves this arse clown.

His reported response when the coach pleaded with him to let the truth come out was "it's not about the truth anymore"..


So he was like 90% of the country at that time, and 50% country right now. To hell with the truth, let's do the PC thing. Imagine if that story came out today, there wouldn't even be an investigation before the lynching.

Yeah, it's old news, but there's never been a good spin on it.

It's such an odd pairing, Alleva and Orgeron. Ed O is almost stereotype 'dumb jock', which would make him an easy fallguy for the next scandal to hit LSU. And you know Alleva already has the inclination to hang his people out to dry.

I don't think Miles ever respected Alleva, which probably contributed to his demise. Les didn't have anyone in his camp, and when things went south he got taken out like Ned Stark.

You won’t find many LSU fans that disagree. With that said, this is super old news and he’s not going anywhere anytime soon.



That may be true, and while most if not all LSU fans were aware, I bet most of the rest of the posters here weren't aware or didn't remember. Most people remember the DA who targeted the players lost his job, was disbarred, and jailed, but probably not that Alleva was the AD. Unlike Nifong, Alleva didn't really become a household name.

The big boosters and the administration along with the national media criminalized the kids to a point where fielding a team for that year was putting the players at an enormous risk. Also at the time Duke did not have a true PR department to help with these types of situations so you add all that up together and it put Joe in an impossible spot. Having said that he handled it very badly on a PR standpoint


The DA in Durham County should shoulder much of the blame in all of this if anyone watched the 30 for 30 on the Duke lacrosse team. He manufactured evidence and ignored what should have resulted in a dismissal before the players were ever indicted. It led to his disbarment and criminal charges once the dust settled. It's hard to really fault Joe Alleva given those circumstances and how everything was being portrayed in the media and in the District Attorneys Office. However, with that said, Joe Alleva has done a multitude of other things throughout his tenure at LSU to show what a boob he is. LSU fans have never cared for him.

The 30/30 about the case is very good. Alleva is a douchebag for throwing those kids and program under the bus.



That’s how he operates. He wants to please the PC crowd so that he looks good on paper. In reality, he’s just another spineless admin.
