re: Easier program turnaround, LSU or NcNeese St.

The only reason of course that any comparison of basketball programs is made or for that matter that Mcneese gets mentioned here is that they obviously have Wade as a coach. They have also found some success in beating Michigan. But there is no comparison between the two teams. While Mcneese beat a not so good Michigan team, they also lost to La tech and should have lost this week to Texas A&M Corpus Christi. While LSU lost to Nichols earlier in the year one of their starting players could not play. McMahon has done tremendous job bring the program back from where Wade left it. But to answer your question it is easier to have a competitive team at Mcneese with less talent because of their schedule but much harder to recruit LSU type talent. I think most would say that Mcneese is having a great year but would not likely beat LSU at its weakest point in a rebuilding year.

Point of clarification: Wade “left” the program as a #6 seed in the NCAA Tournament (would have been 4th appearance in a row) with a like top 10 recruiting class coming in for the next season. The LSU administration left the program in the position McMahon found it in. Whether or not it was necessary to do so will always be a topic of debate.
And your definition of “tremendous” seems a bit odd. I don’t know if I’d call a 6-22 record vs SEC opponents “tremendous”. However, I’m interested to see what superlative is used when McMahon gets to 10 career SEC wins early next season. What’s tremendously better than tremendous?
