Kelly hire Has been fine but that contract is scary.


Ruhl, Smart, Dabo, Franklin, Stoops, Day annd several others all have enormous buyouts. It’s becoming the norm.

Your coach will likely get an extension and raise with an equally high buyout after this season.

It is what it is.

The reason Wade was fired is that unlike “every single other collegiate program” he was NOT operating in the gray. He, unlike every other coach, had no plausible deniability.

He may be exciting, he may be what LSU needs, heck, there might even be a path for both parties to reconcile and make another go at it; but don’t pretend Will Wade was operating in a GRAY area.

What has he proven except hiring Johnson.
Mulkey wanted to come home.
Kelly is still below Orgeron in achievement.
Mac goes to sleep each night dreaming he will awaken and be Will Wade.

Woody's true record is Texas A&M.

Wade has yet to show humility and accountability. It all starts there. It's why he was fired.

Camps are forming? LOL. We are just tired of the whining and bitching. None of you know what the NCAA would have done had Woodward stood by Wade. Do I wish he was still here? Hell yeah. But the adults have moved on. The emotional bitches are still crying. It way past old. Get some therapy.

Stop comparing Self to Wade. They didn’t have self on a wiretap talking about a big azz offer. Self didn’t use any personal accounts to pay the girlfriend. If you think lsu would have gotten a slap on the wrist if they would’ve retained Wade, then you are sadly mistaken. I’m more than sure lsu would have gotten post season bans and scholarship reductions.

Wade was given every chance to come forward and tell his side. By not doing so, and hiding behind lawyers, the admins had no choice. Wade quit on his team by refusing to speak.


How did the admin have no choice? If they were demanding he answer specific questions about impermissible benefits, they were gunna fire him whether he answered or not. KU’s AD never asked Bill Self to confess to shite, I can guarantee you of that

Why would he dream to be a coach who hasn’t won anything? I would dream to be Phil Jackson, Coach K, etc. Will Wade took a bunch of 5 stars to the 1st or second round of the tournament that’s it. Will Wade = Jimbo Fisher

The now dead pac 12 has won 184648266484794 national titles, and 175% of those are in water polo and field hockey.

I don't care how many (who gives a FLUCK nationally) baseball, lesbian basketball or track and gym titles we win, none of those come close to equaling ONE in football or men's basketball.

So while Scott has done well in a couple of the tallest midget sports, and imo hired a top flight football coach who will win natty(s) here, he has ROYALLY FLUCKED UP one of the two sports on campus that register on a national scale, and the ONLY two that truly matter in his performance evaluation.

Is it really that impressive to throw obscene amounts of money at big-name coaches though?

What happened to your other thread where you said frick Will Wade and said he was dead?

All your threads should be pulled. Enough with the revisionist history protecting this poster.

I’m really not sure why people like the man. Is he better than Alleva? Sure.

All he does is throw large amounts of money at coaches with a proven track record.

Anyone with that follows sports and access to LSU’s funds could do what Fat Scott has done.


We will be Notre Dame 2.0 under Kelly. Always in the national discussion, maybe get in the 12 team playoffs several times, but will never be a real threat to win it all. I don’t see him stringing together 3 straight wins against top 5/10 teams to win a title.

Both can be true, but my God, the Wade sympathizers have made it unbearable to read any basketball threads. You would have thought we lost the basketball equivalent to Nick Saban with Will Wade.

What's done is done and time to turn the chapter. If people want to talk McNeese Basketball, do it at the More Sports board instead of spamming us over spilled milk.

No both can’t be true.

Because he can’t be a good AD if he doesn’t fix his frick up.

Everyone has frick ups. We get that. But if you don’t fix your frick ups you’re not good at anything.

Got pulled. And you know by dead I meant “dead to LSU,” which is a true statement.

No one wants to discuss LSU basketball losing to Nicholls and beating Southeastern by a bucket. Should we discuss losing to Syracuse by 20?

Wish the politicians and admin had to live with that rule.

What did Kelly say his team was going to do with Florida State.
Did he lie to us.
