Idiots to let WW to be hired by an ACC team. With MM coming back even with NIL money, still is not a high caliber basketball coach for the SEC competition. Sucks. Another boring year for 2026'.

Talked to an NC State fan the other day. Told him I was “sorry” we stole their best baseball player. He said he was happy to see Tommy White get an NC and was excited about possibly getting Will Wade.

He's probably a very good coach, just no morals or character. And maybe he cheats at every job he's had, but just got caught by LSU and the FBI. But if that's his values, then good luck to him.

He “Dale Browned” and got caught

It's truly impressive that you're able to type a complete, coherent sentence when you have ZERO IDEA how things actually work in the real world.

Who cares. Let’ the Manchild develop and learn X’s and O’s and perhaps he can come back one day-just leave the personal checkbook at home

I forgive you, I forgive me
Now when do I start to feel again
I forgive you, I forgive me
Now when do I start to feel again
'Cause the lights are on
But I'm never home
But I'll be back with a brand new attitude
'Cause I forgive you
I forgive you
We were just a couple of kids
Trying to figure out how to live
Doing it our way
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you
I forgive you
We were busy living the dream
Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you
I forgive you, I forgive me
Now do I start to feel again
If I hate you, what does that do
So I breathe in and I count to 10
'Cause the lights are on
And I'm coming home
Yes I am back
With a new heart in my hand
'Cause I forgive you
I forgive you
We were just a couple of kids
Trying to figure out how to live
Doing it our way
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you
I forgive you
We were busy living the dream
Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you
I forgive you
For every time that I cried
Over some stupid thing you did to hurt me
That's alright, yeah I forgive you
I forgive you
We were just a couple of kids
Trying to figure out how to live
Doing it our way
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you
I forgive you
We were just a couple of kids
Trying to figure out how to live
Doing it our way
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you
I forgive you
We were busy living the dream
Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you”

I don't really understand what Woodward did wrong, I thought he had no choice but to fire him. Again I also don't follow LSU hoops much.

Woodward did the right thing. The Wadeophiles are worse than the Swifties - a bunch of grown men with Wade posters all over their bedrooms.
