I’m an LSU fan and not a fan of any coach. You Will Wade cult members are as bad as the Texas 8&4 cult. He’s gone. He fricked up. He made one of the dumbest moves in the history of recruiting by using a personal checkbook. That’s on him. Let it go. It never ends well for a cult


My hope is that one day the basketball program can become good enough that we can have discussions with “LSU fans” who actually know that they are talking about.

The “personal checkbook” narrative keeps being repeated over, and over, and over again as justification why Wade should have been fired without any understanding that narrative is, in fact, something the investigation never established as true.

You hate that some LSU fans continue to canonize Wade, that’s fine. But at least get your facts straight when chastising them.

Actually not a single charge against Will Wade was ever established as true. Not one. LSU in essence pled no contest and presented voluntary sanctions to resolve allegations against the football and basketball programs. The allegations may have been true, but there was never a formal hearing with evidence on both sides. The allegation regarding Wade's wife's checkbook was regarding a player he coached at Virginia Commonwealth.
