You assume Alleva makes these decisions (like hiring Jones and O) independently, that is naive.

Very well written email. I made one minor edit at the end, that I think will drive it home to them.
As an LSU grad and longstanding financial supporter, I'm reaching out to you in hopes that strong consideration will be given to making a change in LSU's athletic leadership. MR Alleva has simply fallen short of the expectations in striving for and achieving excellence.
It appears that the tasks as LSU's athletic director have surpassed his competencies. The most recent hiring process of the football coach, which has now risen to a national embarrassment, further underscores my sentiment - and the sentiments of thousands of LSU supporters.
In fact the contract "buyout" for MR Orgeron is an example of MR Alleva's failed fiduciary responsibility to LSU. How in any way was the "buyout" aligned with the best interests of LSU?
I believe new and fresh leadership would be a positive step in protecting LSU's strong brand not just in athletics, but for the university as a whole. As Mark Emmert correctly stated while LSU's chancellor, "athletics can be and is the window for many to the full university."
Thank you for your service to LSU.

You capitalized the R in Mr.

Did you lead with that to passive aggressively threaten to end your longstanding financial support or to infer that your opinion is more meaningful than most others?

Not only is that a terrific email, but it's extremely mature and professional too, which is refreshing to see on the Rant. Cheers to you Lebowski.

I'm sure they will be honest with you and let you know if they were on the O train as well.

I am assuming Joe gets paid a lot of money to be the athletic director at LSU. I also assume that the athletic director at any institution’s primary function is to make the best decisions that he can make for the school. If he’s being forced to make decisions that he doesn’t want to make, then he needs to man up, say no, and be prepared to walk away.
Having a tough job is no excuse for making bad decisions if you know in advance that they are bad.

23 downvotes. Obviously the rant is not a golfer.

I know it was time for Miles to go, but not to hire fricking Orgeron. Miles needed to be replaced with someone that had a resume that was better than his time from 2012-2016. He should not have been replaced by someone with a resume that made his darker years seem "Golden".
