MCMahon gonna need at least 3 full cycles to get LSU BB where it needs to be. Be patient with him and he'll deliver. He's another character hire.

If he's TRULY a character hire, we are DOOMED.

I think he was a lazy, incompetent hire. I DESPERATELY want to be wrong about that. I want LSU to win like they did for most of Dale's tenure, and would have FOR ALL of the general's tenure.

If you or others think we aren't still paying under the table to our football players/families even under nil, just wow!!

BK has the luxury of the infrastructure being set up to illegally induce these guys to come to LSU. Wade obviously didn't have that same perk.

Recruiting is a cutthroat business. If you don't dance all over the rules, you have ZERO chance of being competitive.

Psst!!! Don't tell anybody else, but coach Gay at Puke, Self at KU, Cal and Pitino WHEREVER they've been, hell any successful coach anywhere, run FILTHY programs.

You cannot win without doing so. Period. Stop.

If this offends anyone's set of ethics, I would suggest you not watch big time college athletics (football and men's basketball).

There are plenty of examples in today's college landscape, especially in men's basketball, that show a team can be turned around IMMEDIATELY if the coach has the skill set to do it.

I am positive that if Wade had inherited what Eminem did last year, you can bet your arse he would have been at least in the NIT, and maybe even in the NCAAs.

Doesn't work like that anymore hoss. Especially with NIL and the transfer portal. Texas and OU also coming in, LSU is in serious danger of being left behind even further in the SEC

You know what brother, lets give him 10 cycles. Actually, 15. In 15 cycles he’ll have us right where we were when Wade was at the helm no doubt. He’s a man of great character — we’re lucky to have him. We should give him a raise and an extension so no one tries to poach him!

You can only live off MoRat for so long, but hey he signed up for 10 cycles. He CAN’T recruit like Wade but does win like Jones. Though he is a nice young man with a great family.
Keep dreaming because after this season you’ll say he needs another year, the next another year, etc etc, recruiting doesn’t seem to be his forte. When you win 30 games at Murray St you can afford to recruit hidden gems, when you win 2 games at LSU the hidden gems are hiding from you. I felt sorry for him for a minute last year, but he’s making 3/4 million $ so far that’s 1.7 million per SEC win. That’s not a bad gig he’s got going.
