Dude is one of the most popular athletes and celebrities. He has an ego that I think he would take on the challenge. He loves LSU and his son plays. No doubt he could recruit. Could generate enough good will to offset the rage much of the fan base has for Wade’s firing. Everyone will support Shaq!

Would probably need some solid coaches underneath him.

Ok when we hire Bob Smith from East Nevada University desert community college, support for the program is gonna fall off the map. But ok. I was suggesting a famous alum in the same vein as many other schools like Memphis and Michigan have done.

A Shaq/Barkley duo would actually make sense and I think there’s a pretty good chance they would accept.

Howard had extensive coaching experience prior to being hired as Michigan's coach. Shaq does not.

You are suggesting we hire a man that has never coached to take over a program that will have its two hands tied behind its back is insane.

This sounds like something my mom or wife would say. Is it a bad take? You tell me.

This post has to be a goof, right??

You think Shaq wants to put his celebrity life on hold along with all his business dealings & general freedoms to come run a college basketball program & spend every waking hour recruiting & coaching? Do you understand how stupid that sounds?

Would you say we should make him a ‘strong arse offer’ ?

The idea of Shaq coaching LSU makes no sense.. sure, he might do an ok job.. but he already has the BEST life, a fairly cushy schedule and has generational wealth.. hiring Shaquille would indeed make a huge PR splash, but then after a few days he’d have to grind it out in the high stress coaching world, and i just dont see him wanting to do that .

Great idea OP.... and let LSU be the first to have a negative shooting percentage from the foul line.

Shaq makes way too much money to consider dealing with the bs of being a college coach

Great idea. Shaq could just pay his bribes and blackmail in cash so there's no trail.
