Have a feeling that this guy will hold down LA for our top talent then raid, TX, MS, Ark, MO, and TN for the best we can get in those areas. We now have coaches that can identify talent then get them here while coaching them up. Love this new hire and I really believe he will have the seats packed in very very very soon. Making moves already!

I'm all in. Couldn't have had a better introduction that this. Our players needed what he brings. Many of our players have talent. Some are out of place. He will fix that and get some bigs.

2017-2018 season is already better than this past season.... There is energy and there is hope! None of that this past year!

Good luck Coach Wade! We could use the optimism around here.

Nowhere to go from here but up! Great way to start career in the SEC! And plenty of time to get everything and everyone in place. I would be very surprised if we don't have an awesome season next year!

How long until someone from TD asks a question in a press conference? "Hi Coach Wade. Chicken here from TigerDroppings...."

Go Tigers!

Somewhat irrelevant, but that suit color combination Alleva is wearing is atrocious. He looks like a poor person in a cheap mismatched suit that's too big for him.

Their tailor should be embarrassed.

Anyone can talk big. I'll wait to see how the team really does. No NCAA tourney next year we will know it was all talk.

Is this a joke? If he makes the NCAA tournament next year he should be in the HoF

Jesus Christ, the guy is taking over a young team after an embarrassment of a year. We don't need no bandwagon fans here.

Someone educate him on how New Orleans isn't part of Louisiana, screw the Saints.

Stick to what you do best. That is, screwing your boy friend.
