chinhoyang thinks we should have held on to Johnny Jones.

For a championship??? Are you delusional? Brady has been our "best chance this century" by far, followed by Trent with Brady's players.
Couldn't agree more. Brady was way more successful at LSU than Wade. Brady has a final four appearance and a sweet sixteen appearance.
I remember all the Wade cocksuckers on here saying he wasn't going to get a show cause. Well guess what, he did. Everyone mentioning that Bill Self wasn't fired, he didn't receive a show cause. The penalties Kansas received weren't nearly as bad as they could've been. You're genuinely stupid if you think the punishments our school received for basketball wouldn't have been worse if WW was still coaching here.
The hard truth is, Will Wade underachieved. He had multiple top 5 recruiting classes but only made one sweet sixteen. He wasn't even the coach at the time either lmao, he was suspended. The writing was on the wall for years that he was going to get fired for cheating and you're idiotic if you couldn't recognize that.
Remember all the people criticizing Wade? Saying he was a terrible Xs and Os coach, couldn't win with his recruits? Seems like everyone is short sighted. None of you are true fans, you just bitch in the present moment. Grow up and get over losing Wade. Y'all treat him like an ex girlfriend you never got over.
The reason Wade is stuck coaching at McNeese (one of the worst schools in arguably THE WORST conference in D1 basketball) is because no bigger or better schools wanted him. No school thought hiring him was worth the risk of a show cause, suspension, and restrictions. I don't get what's so hard to understand. It's like all of you forget basic logic and reasoning to defend Wade.

It is bullshite. I'm glad Auburn stood by Pearl, but we still self-imposed penalties. I can't believe Kansas got off completely free.

Well said. Wade was the king of big talk.
I'm not a fan of coaches that have a cult following.

He showed up to LC in a private jet.

Wade was also less than 40 years old at the time we fired him. Self is 20 years deeper into his career.
Before 40 Self had two elite 8s and a sweet 16. Wade has 0.

What was embarrassing? Is paying a player (allegedly, don’t forget the NCAA investigated Javonte Smart, the recipient of the strong arse offer, to no end and found nothing) really that embarrassing?
Is Michigan getting rid of their head football coach, or are they drawing a line in the sand and standing up for their guy?

You know why Wade had a “cult following”? Because he brought excitement to a dead basketball program. 2 NCAA Tournament appearances in the 11 years prior to Will Wade arriving. He had us in what would have been 4 straight NCAA Tournaments (Covid team would have been a 6-7 seed).
But you are in luck, there certainly isn’t a cult following for the current LSU basketball coach.

At this point I have to assume these Wade-a-maniacs are getting paid to post

You could say he was a man ahead of his time really
Coaches still can't pay nor setup payment directly to players even in the NIL world. Wade was dumb then and would be really dumb in today's world.
