re: One thing that the McMen cannot deny is that excitement around the program is non existent

I think part of that is the team not being good, but also the Will Wade mafia plays a part as well. If anyone says anything remotely positive about McMahon on here, this board torches that person and is sure to bring up Will Wade. It makes people afraid to say anything positive at all on here.
This goes both ways my friend. Anyone who criticizes Mcmahon or brings up Wade gets flamed into oblivion and told that losing close games is incredible.
The issue is that we have 2 extremes that won't give the other side an inch.
There are plenty of fans in the middle that loved Will Wade but also want McMahon to succeed. We can understand the issues with Wade and why he was let go but we also refuse to prop up bad results as a moral victory. I want a good basketball program and thus far, McMahon has not provided that.

Lol, that's not true at all.
Wade is celebrated on here.

No one thinks this, let alone says this.
You're being hyperbolic.

I mostly agree here. I think there are some differences for people about "moral victories" I had no expectations regarding LSU winning or even being in the game vs Tennessee. so was not surprised at the score but disappointed a bit when I did tune in (I was late tuning in) and the team was already double digits behind.
But they mainly kept pace from the point I tuned in and made a run then seemed to collapse and give up everything they gained plus a bit. I was pleased they didn't quit but disappointed they started turning the ball over again and taking ill-advised shots. The way I describe this game looks like most of us who want LSU to do better would approach MM and WW. I can support and criticize them in the same paragraph without irrationally loving or hating either one. And I get tired of people glowing about one and pissing on the other.

You lost me here. You gotta be more patient.
What coach out there could provide that in year two? & on top of that, which of those coaches would have actually accepted a job to fix the dumpster fire?
Everyone underestimates the damage that was done

Of the two 'extremes' that you mention, the one that loves Wade is much louder than anyone defending McMahon.

That's me and I wish those still hanging on to Will Wade would just let it go already. I would be happy to have Wade here, but he isn't. That is the past and sometimes this board is like hanging out with that pathetic buddy that can't fricking get over an ex.
