Will Wade has been built up to be something he wasn’t by a segment of this fanbase and it’s only them that can’t see it
Well if he takes the McNeese job, then it's one of the rare times a message board argument will be easily settled in real time
McNeese hasn't had a winning season in 11 years. They have been objectionably horrible for most of that time. There's really 3 options here
1) Wade comes in and recruits a totally different class of talent, and they win
2) Wade comes in and with the same talent level, they win
3) Without upgrading talent, they lose at roughly the same rate they have been
1 or 2 would prove his cheerleaders correct, he's an elite recruiter and a good tactical coach. 3 would prove his detractors right, that he can't win without buying superior talent
Let the games begin

If he is "just a guy who buys talent" then how do you explain his success at Chattanooga. Wade was 32 years old when he got the HC job there. The program had not had a winning season in 4 years prior to Wade's arrival. The coach Wade replaced was so good that he coached high school basketball for 5 years after being fired.
Wade went 40-25 in his two seasons at Chattanooga. Finishing second in the league in both of his 2 years. The team he left behind won the conference and went to the NCAA Tournament...for a HC that would in two years get the UMass job and never have a winning season.
Must have been all that money Chatanooga booster were throwing around in those days
