If Will Wade stays on his current trajectory, we are going to have one hell of a basketball program over the next few years. Come on over, Trendon and shore up the middle for us!

I dunno l lou. Ww has something special going on in BR. This team may be at a level to challenge KU the next few years while wade builds his resume before he bounces for HC spot elsewhere.

Maybe, maybe not! Enjoy the ride!

Genestealer55•71 months

But can we challenge UK?

I'm a tiger fan, but I would go to Kansas out of everyone on that list. Choosing us over Kansas in basketball is similar to the dummies on this site that think that it's OK to choose kansas over us in football just because some dummy recruiter is from new Orleans.

Big fish little pond ( at least for now ) worked out well for Ben Simmons. Don’t count us out just yet. Wade is building something epic.

Farkwad•71 months

He SHOULD choose LSU.

pellietigersaint•71 months

If you want him to go to Kansas then you are not a tiger fan plain and simple
