This isn't a real question but I'll enjoy the responses.

Based on level of competition and the caliber of coach at either institution the answer is McNeese

But..but..but sanctions and no players.

Yeah. McNeese has the same sanctions and nearly turned over its entire roster.

For a charismatic coach, it is McNeese hands down. For parlaying the turnaround into increasing future success and sustaining competitiveness at the highest level, LSU.

It's a function of their respective conferences. A few really good recruits, guys who would start at a mid and get minutes at a top-level program will dominate in the Southland and probably get you in the tournament most years by winning the conference tourney.

It's easier to get good players at LSU, but considering the southland is one of the worst basketball conferences in the country, it's easier to have success at Mcneese

It’s a hell of a lot easier to compete in southland with average roster and great scheme. You need great roster AND great scheme to compete in the sec. Neither CWW or CMM has a great roster, but both coaches are scheming this year. That’s why CMM’s record isn’t as good as CWW, the competition in the conference is far more competitive.

Much easier to turn around LSU. Look what Wade did for us in year 1 and 2.

Mcneese is a complete afterthought and somehow Wade has those guys on the verge of the top25 and an automatic bid.

Has McNeese ever won their conference?
Where did McNeese finish last season?

Your eyes really light up with glee when LSU loses a game doesn't it? Why do you claim to be an LSU fan when it's obvious you aren't?

At McNeese the Coach is the star
At LSU there is no identity, except for
Nope there is no star

McNeese must be easier to turn around.
It took Wade two years to win the SEC and make the tournament.
It appears he may win the Southland Tournament his first season at McNeese and make the 64 team tournament.
McNeese soundly beat Michigan at Michigan.

The same people who say that McMahon should've rebuilt the team within 2 seasons also say that firing Wade set LSU basketball back 10 years. Not sure how that math works.

You’d have to be a complete imbecile to not be impressed with Will Wade winning road games in year 1 @ VCU, UAB, Southern Miss, Michigan, etc. Undefeated in league, 17-2, etc. Its incredible. If it was easy McNeese wouldn’t have been in the continuous college basketball dumpster for multiple decades.

An elite coach makes LSU a winner instantly. Just like an elite coach makes McNeese a winner instantly. Obviously it’s easier to do at LSU.

Anyone saying McNeese is an easier program to turn around I'd ask this question:

If McNeese is so easy to win at, then why haven't any other coaches ever gone there and won?
