I don't hate McMahon, but what do people actually like about him as a basketball coach that they support him so vehemently (other than him being a seemingly great guy)?
It’s not about McMahon, it’s part about blind loyalty for everything Woodward does, part hatred for Wade from the coach O crowd (still don’t understand that dynamic, but it exists), and lastly some few naive virtue signaling fans who think that Wade is the only coach in America that gave improper benefits. The only other group is the “Wade was a terrible coach” group who can often be identified when they talk about him coaching “street-ball” and not running enough “plays.”
None of these individuals are objectively looking at McMahon as an upgrade in coaching in any facet of the game. Wade was a better recruiter, better developer of talent, better roster manager, had teams in the top 20 in offensive efficiency and top 20 in defensive efficiency.

It's mostly due to the fact that about 98% of posters on this board are basketball illiterate. Both in the sense of how the actual game works, as well as the inner workings of college basketball as a whole

Or there are some people like myself that loved Wade but would still like to see our current coach succeed. Not everything is a fricking conspiracy.
