They knew this the whole time. Why now? Wait another few weeks and let the players have their coach for the NCAA.

Thanks a lot Will,Les,Ed, Verge, James, and Frank ( the list is longer much longer). You morons have ruined my alma mater university with egos and hubris . Verge and Frank need to go next.

CharlesLSU•45 months

How do Verge and Frank tie into the Wade situation? Confused….

LSU82Cajun•45 months

Well football is involved in this and administration to. So Verge Ausbury and Frank Wilson are both involved in litigation that will have a profound affect on LSU sports for years.

I guess you can cheat and not get fired. But when you cheat AND suck, you gone. I’m as big an lsu fan as anyone and I couldn’t watch our Bball team this year. No offensive game plan/coaching whatsoever. Maddening

Lsutigerturner•45 months

This fricking sucks. Man WTH he has done great things for LSU bringing us back to relevance and we don't stick by him. He must have known this was coming.

Slipperytiger•45 months

So..we’re not a basketball school?

pitchandcatch27•45 months

WW should have been let go the minute thier was suspicion of mis-conduct. Feel bad for the players. Use this for motivation. Hate this happened. Love this team. GEAUX TIGERS!!

CanebreakCajun•45 months

Just mere suspicion? Hope you’re never on a jury.

slowmoe•45 months

We got new sheriffs in town expect changes everywhere. No one is safe.

Dale Brown beating his chest with dickeyV for sure.

Dale Brown isa cancer on LSU Basketball.

theBru•45 months

Was a a damn strong firing?

SeanLSU•45 months

D@#! strong was Miles' phrase. Will Wade's was strong-@$$ offer.

theBru•45 months

Was a a damn strong firing?

moontigr•45 months

I think we all pretty much knew that some shady stuff was going on under the table, but we were ok with it because we know other programs do it, too. But that still doesn’t make it right.

cheeto225•45 months

It's happening now! it's just called NIL..

moontigr•45 months

Yeah, but the offers Wade was making weren’t NIL.

Tiger in Texas•45 months

Good bye LSU basketball! Program will not recover...

cheeto225•45 months

Why? We can pay them legally now!

arcalades•45 months

stop being overly dramatic. the program wasn't doing anything anyway bc wade sucked at coaching. it's addition by subtraction.

BlackPot•45 months

"will not recover" To getting back to average? I think they'll be ok.

ThatTahoeOverThere•45 months

Next woman up

Jabontik•45 months

If Mulkey can coach two programs shes the best choice

Undertow•45 months

It’s the selective enforcement by the NCAA that is frustrating.

ShadowTigerTX•45 months

I liked Coach Wade enough but he was not going to win us a championship -- he was going to get us close a number of times but that's it -- and I would have been pretty happy with that compared to the past. But man is he a moron. I seriously doubt he ever coaches in Div I again.

Lowes knowsLSU•45 months

Well of course not, he wasn't not with out any strong arse offers

LSU-DUDE•45 months

Good!

CanebreakCajun•45 months

Fire the guy who may have paid a player, keep the executive who hushes sexual assault. Makes sense.

19•45 months

Wish we had an OG like Wade that won games, but they had cause anyway...but the fact remains: this current incarnation of LSU is an embarrassment.

JOHNN•45 months

This is what really baffles me. Verge has to have something big on the school if they are still keeping him around. At this point the school is in so much sh!t that they might as well just let him go and take whatever the NCAA gives them.

LSU82Cajun•45 months

Ausberry! Don’t understand why he’s still at LSU.?
