he doesn't seem to be nearly as proactive as foley at uf. alleva has tons of patience as shown with trent and his telling him i dont care how much you lose last year.

You leave Foley alone. Plus, he still hasn't dated all the volleyball players at UF yet.

foley would be nuts to ever leave uf but it would be a monster hire.

Id take someone that is proactive like him. hell ticket hikes would be fine in the smaller sports as long as they start producing again

Who cares?


As long as he's willing to hold the football coach to high standards and the basketball coach to acceptable standards, I'm good with it.

That's what I was concerned about. Why is Johnson still there? Finishing behind Auburn in basketball this past season should have been grounds for immediate termination.

but some of his choices on coaches and ticket pricing might cause some frustration .


You mean people like Nikki Caldwell and Beth Torain could cause frustration?

As for ticket prices they have to be at market prices anyways.

when trent got here we were stacked his first year but had nothing behind that. so we knew the next year would be rough, the issue is we didn't improve this year and he extended him another year. It was more of recruiting ploy than anything though because he didn't get a raise with it

I'm not saying he is great or anything, but he did a god job getting Caldwell, and then we just got fricked over by the a-hole from Bama.

you mean he did a great job paying this chick 3x's what she was making at UCLA to coach a non-revenue sport , and LSU luckily avoided wasting more money on a sport ppl care even less about when the bama guy stayed in Tuscaloosa
