Scott Woodward is a good AD, AND he fricked up about Will Wade.

Can’t both be true? Seems camps are forming and I’m not sure why.
Do we not care about the two titles under his coaching hires?
A little baffled by the pure hate.

Yes. Both can be true.
The bigger question is if McMahon struggles mightily again in SEC play this year with he acknowledge the poor hire and make a change?

I agree, both can be true. Kelly, Johnson, & Mulkey are great hires, just wish he would’ve went the Kansas route with Wade. After last season and the upcoming sec schedule, my son doesn’t even bother to watch the games or even talk Tiger hoops. The program just feels dead, should’ve extended Wade as Kansas did with Self and ridden it out.

Whether the decision to fire Wade was correct or not, it was not made by Woodward alone, nor did he have the final decision. Not at LSU. Not with the group on the BOS.

I tend to agree here. It’s not just Wade, he has a huge blind spot for MBB. Aside from Williams the last two years, none of his MBB hires have been successful.
Not sure if it’s apathy or just an inability to evaluate coaches. With all the cards on the table, the McMahon hire is terrible. Both the current K-State and Mizzou coaches were available when we hired MM.
ETA. Don’t kid yourself, it was personal with Wade. Woody didn’t like him and really got his panties in a wad when Will publicly trashed the facilities.

That McNeese win over Michigan really has your arse melting hard tonight.

The blatant truth in regards to current LSU MBB and Will Wade is that the vast majority of the sports fan base has feelings of real resentment to the current AD and Administration as a whole.
An extremely an overwhelmingly popular head coach was terminated for operating in a “gray area” along with every single other collegiate program.
Now, in real time our fan base has to endure watching our recently proud, successful and exciting basketball team resemble the exact same rock bottom existence from which Will Wade resurrected it from…. All while watching him successfully operate a mid major program 2 hours away beating a blue blood on their home court.

Home run with Mulkey and Johnson. But the big two in most colleges are basketball and football. Basketball is not looking good so far and the Kelly hire
Has been fine but that contract is scary.

I think a lot of people feel he screwed over LSU basketball and bent the knee to the NCAA when he probably didn’t need to. Other programs ignored the NCAA and it worked out for them. Did he do it to protect the football program, which had some issues at the time too?

MBB had a different goal and that was to clean up its appearance. We have done that successfully and now it’s time to get going.
Painful - ‘yes’

Agreed. I love Woodward he’s done a fantastic job. He fricked up firing wade.
I’m holding out hope we make it right in a year or two and bring him back.

What he did with the way he handled the Will Wade situation should be enough to have his arse run out of town. A disgrace

LSU basketball needs a coach that will promote and bring excitement to the program. That was Wade. So if you’re gonna fire him, you better have someone with the same personality lined up. Instead Woody hired white Trent Johnson.

Both can be true, but are not. Will Wade is an arrogant clown who got his own arse fired. There is a reason why he hasn't sued for being wrongly terminated
Posted on 12/30/23 at 8:29 am to Nix to Twillie
What has he proven except hiring Johnson.
Mulkey wanted to come home.
Kelly is still below Orgeron in achievement.
Mac goes to sleep each night dreaming he will awaken and be Will Wade.
Woody's true record is Texas A&M.
