Yikes...between this and no signees from the initial list of portal contacts, not a great start. Hopefully things turn around quick.

Thought of him as a prime candidate to see a significant improvement under new coaching. Oh well.

This was expected. He was buried on the depth chart and likely wouldn’t have played much this season. Current time is fine without him and will still compete for a tournament spot.

Yet I would take this current scenario 10 out of 10 times over another second under McLoser.

We all know you don’t really mean this statement, Mr. Guilbeau

Thought he was actually pretty good for a freshman.

When they say "Option of returning" is always interesting, we must have gave him an offer but he wants to test out the open market.

Then Wade should be given a 4 year leash. This is year 0… started with no players… he’s a great family man etc.

Current team is fine without him? What is this "current team" you speak of?

He was "buried on the depth chart"? What depth chart?

I’d like to see Reece come back probably more than any other player we had.

Did you actually watch any games this season? He was the backup PG and became starting PG for most of the SEC schedule after Thomas went out.

Not many portal point guards coming in with SEC experience, including taking important end of game shots.

I mean there's no way they're getting rid of him without cause anytime soon.

That being said, he's being paid more, given more staff budget, and given more NIL money than McMahon got.

And as usual Wade is going to do more with all of that. When Wade misses the post season we can cry about it.

The portal isn’t even closed for entries and plenty of good players are out there for the taking.

How are you buried on a depth chart on a team with no players.

So he's leaving now, based on this? Based on being buried on the depth chart when there's literally no one else on the team???

If buried on the depth chart means:
Playing in 32 games
Averaging the 5th highest mins played
Leading the team in Assist
2nd on the team in steals

I would like to see what starting is to you.

McMahon could be given $100M for NIL and would still be in the 11 seed play in game. He was the worst LSU coach in any sport that I’ve seen in my lifetime.
