Couple of things I saw in this Final Four.

1.) Will Wade is a JV coach compared to the 4 coaches involved. He was never gonna take us where LSU could be.
players never developed.

2.) If Efton Reid is a 5 star recruit then the Banchero and Griffin are 8 stars. They are so much better than him.

3.) We cannot even cheat and get the best players. If Wade was gonna get caught cheating, he should have spent more $$ and get better than what he got!

I liked Coach Wade. He made Basketball relevant, but that is it. He was nbever taking us to the NEXT level.

Lol, the rant never fails. Wade was night and day to what we had the previous 30 years, yet it still wasn't enough. Remind you that he did that in a 5 year span. Wade was a young coach who in his own right would still grown and learn. The fact that there are still these kind of post is laughable. Yes, Wade should have been let go for making poor decisions. But, the guy was a good young coach he turned this program completely around in a short amount of time.

LSU's postseason play in this period don't agree.

Wade is the most overrated coach ever at LSU. Smoke and mirrors. You'll get better and forget he ever existed in a few years.

You are finally getting it. LSU basketball has been completely irrelevant to recruits outside of LSU since 1996. Will Wade was building a name brand. Next year’s recruiting class combined with what should have been retuning was going to be another good step into building a winner.

But we tucked tail and ran. If Will Wade was the only coach “paying players” we would have inked all the great high school players. But we all know he was only trying to catch up to what other programs have always been doing.

Was Wade going to grow as an offensive coach, because we ran no offense. No motion, no offensive sets, just dribbling and somebody jacking up a bad shot more times than not.

So was Elizabeth Holmes. The ending of these houses of cards is inevitable.

Gotta love the rant, we endure 20 years of sucking with Trent Johsnon and JJ; Wade brought us to post season play EVERY YEAR and we shite on him. Some of you are just down right sad, and most have real tiny peckers

AJ griffin had 6 points and 4 rebounds in 29 minutes on 1/7 shooting in the final 4.

Think about how fricking stupid you sound while thinking you’re intelligent.

It is pretty sad how obvious they make it. Yet another thing our athletic department can't do worth a damn.
