What's stopping Woodward from re-hiring Wade now that we're officially in the age of NIL?

Penance served. 4-D chess. Alphamoved.

I think Woodward fired wade because he violated ncaa rules and fought it. Had his contract restructured saying he could be fired if the allegations were true. And they were. Nothing to do with football. It doesn’t follow any logic to say firing a basketball coach would atone football violations.

The OLOL case had not been closed
When OBJ passed cash to his foes
The NCAA saw a chance to expose
And lumped football in with woes

They threatened penalties severe
For both programs, far and near
We chose to roll over, without a tear
To protect football, our golden dear

This news is common, no surprise
Discussed ad nauseum, with many sighs

Are you a true fan of LSU, or just disguise?

How can anyone believe this? It’s akin to saying a criminal should admit to the murder when the police are interrogating him without the presence of a lawyer because the cop said they would, “go easy on him”

Nothing against CMM but I'd be all for it.
Today was a good example why it would be a good idea.
The effort was what you would expect for any game and there was some good execution on both ends. They've gotten better but they aren't as talented as who they play. Our guys have to do most everything well in every facet to win games.
Great players = Great execution no matter what Offense/Defense the Coach wants to run.
Wade is a TOP Recruiter. The players he's brought in have proved LSU could be Top 5 (IIRC) at either end. (In different years but that fact reinforces my point) The different kind of high level players he attracts can make whatever scheme he chooses successful.
IF it was going to happen I'd say it would be after the season. Prolly highly unlikely, though.
By the way, I was not a CWW sycophant. This is all just common sense. CWW is an established recruiter of elite talent. CMM is not.
BUT - even just on "general principles" - frick Bill Self.

Pat Forde, Dick Vital, Pete Thamel and John Calipari. Whether he knows it or not Woodward by his actions shows he really values their opinions.

The fact he and a lot of people in the athletic department did not like Will Wade.

Wade will be coaching at Ole Miss. And I will be a season ticket holder. LSU is too dangerous for my kids anyway

The minute the NCAA rules on Will Wade, if it doesn’t include a show cause, Wade should be hired back with a public apology from Scott Woodward and MM sent packing. Immediately.

While it would be nice for LSU to be better at basketball, it’s been the #3 sport here for awhile and football generates way more revenue. Easy choice especially with the women’s team final four locks for the next decade or so.

The fact that McMahon is here with a contract that all but guarantees he will be here 3-4 years.

Woodward isn’t a great AD.
