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

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?
Most fans do feel that way and rightfully so. The playbook was exclusive and well written which every other program used except one, LSU. That’s why I believe most fans are even more upset about the situation today. Let’s be real honest here, with Wades popularity coupled with the teams success, a new AD looking at the situation objectively understands this was a small obstacle in the road and standing up for the head coach is best for the program. Unfortunately, Woodward chose to make it more about himself and possibly the couple short days of having to read a negative sports article from Yahoo sports.
He chose wrong because he didn’t spend the necessary time to understand the strong player/head coach relationship and the fan/head coach relationship dynamic that was established prior to him even being named AD. What’s worse is maybe he did understand all this and did it anyway. Either way he deserves all scrutiny he’s receiving right now for basketball.
