Theoretically NC State should have the ability to compete monetarily. They’re a massive and highly respected engineering school.

I enjoy that we haven’t had an official MM fired and we already have general details

Big difference was the resources - he will have more NIL, staff salary, etc. in Baton Rouge.

But the SEC Rant and Reddit said that NC State was a much better program with more resources

How strange

NC State allegedly offered to double Wade's salary. Clearly, Wade just got that Tiger in him.

I'm pretty sure that didn't factor into Wade's decision.

No, I’m just saying they should have an alumni base capable of generating resources at least on par with LSU.

This is one of the greatest stories in college sports history and will be talked about for generations if/when The General leads our Fighting Tigers to a national championship.

It's really almost surreal right now. I can't imagine how the people who have been calling for his return for years must feel today. Probably popping champagne.

Guess this shows it is not always about facilities anymore and its more money for roster. He knows as well as anyone that our facilities are not great yet he is leaving another program after 1 season to come back.

Let's freaking go baws and bawettes!

I can't wait for the press conference. I'm getting a chubb just thinking about it.
