In all the visible aspects of the job, Alleva definitely appears to be a weak AD. Which tells me there's some financial behind-the-scenes dealings that in some way pleases his bosses on the BoS. Enough to give him a raise when Tennessee's dumpster fire of an athletic department went after him.
Not on AMAB's schedule, that's for sure. http://www.myfoxal.com/story/23214626/university-of-alabama-releases-2014-football-schedule
The only game that should be on Thanksgiving day is the one that the Detroit Lions lose every year--LSU should be on the day AFTER!
There are talks about having two SEC games on Thanksgiving day in the future. Having a game like LSU vs A&M for an 8PM kick that night? That would be a hell of a way to end the day!
I'm surprisingly okay with the Thanksgiving Day game ... this is likely because I don't hang out with my family etc, and I'm always off work (or if I am at work it's dead and I can change our big screen over). Just means I watch a lot of football on that day.
Les should be doing cartwheels. BAMA is going to soften up Florida for you, again. Last time this happened, there was nothing left but a 3rd string QB for the Bengals to concern themselves with. You are welcome.
