Pay Will Wade whatever you have to keep him here. As much as I am

excited about a local guy like Coach O winning big you just can't let this guy leave like Saban did.
Duke, UK & UNC will have openings soon. You have got to sell this guy on staying & going to Final Fours like we used to do regularly when we slept outside in tents the night before. LSU has 3 players in the top 50 of all-time NBA greats. Sell that too.
I Will Wade I Will Wade For You.

He has coached zero games. He has a contract that encourages both parties to stay together for more than half a decade. Relax

I'm genuinely excited about Wade and basketball again, but let's actually see the on-court product first.

God I love this place. He has never coached a game here, but already the expert knows he will be our Saban of basketball.

Or we could let him coach a few games first.

I'm excited about the prospect of BB under Wade but how about we let him coach a season or two before we renogotiate his contract?

final fours regularly?

Let the man coach a season first. Jones brought in some good players and we see how he turned out

You are a fricking delusional clown.

What I posted on the RB about any coach at any program that has a marginally decent college basketball history.
To further elaborate LSU as a basketball program could be the best possible destination for a rebuild of any Power 5 school in America. You have a blue blood practice facility. A blue blood tradition player wise, meaning if you go anywhere in this country the world for that matter, basketball fans of any generation will say that is amazing. Shaq, Pettit, Maravich, Chris Jackson (some people actually compare him to Stephen Curry in CJ's prime which is saying a lot). Then on top of that the PMAC is not very nice right now, but when it is rocking it really is something special. A lot of the big name programs play in venues that are solely theirs, many play in NBA arenas and many just frankly are not that loud.
In the SEC Bud Walton and then of course Rupp Arena are the only two facilities when they are full blast I would put above the PMAC. The only arenas I have not been to are SC, Missouri, and A&M.
I think LSU relates a lot to Florida in terms of what we can be basketball wise, but we also have some of the all-time greats. Regardless of what you think of Alleva the guy was the AD at Duke he knows what it takes, obviously he could just sit back and let Coach K do his thing. If we make basketball just tourney team year in and year out, we could have one of if not the best major athletic program in the country.

with college basketball now a days unless as a coach you grew up coaching or played at a said "blue-blood" fewer and fewer coaches are jumping ship. Look at Marshall at Wichita, obviously Mark Few at Gonzaga has been doing it for well over a decade but just made it to a Final Four. LSU actually has a very very appealing job. It is not known as a blue blood program, but has blue blood tradition player wise. Has a very good practice facility which is a huge plus. It does matter still when an entire state gets behind the school, and you have a nationally recognized powerhouse program in Scotlandville right up the road. The Big Dance is the goal every year, almost all of the basketball supporters are okay with this, and certainly your football/baseball fans. For a school that has not won that much recently still have a pretty good contingency in the NBA. If LSU gets bounced in the Round of 32 the AD is probably not coming for the coaches head. If CWW has success he will not be going anywhere.

you are either a child or senile, we did not just simply let him leave, he wanted to go to the Pros, end of story. quote:

Cal unless he gets in serious NCAA hot water is not going anywhere anytime soon, Roy Williams has had some medical issues but has his job for life now and could go another 3-5. Coach K also has had a lot of medical issues/surgeries recently but to everybody that follows college basketball Coach K will have a big say in the next coach (rightfully so) so it is believed they will go with a familiar face from the coaching tree or somebody he is very comfortable with. Believe it or not it might be a tougher sell for a top end coach than people realize. It will not be a given oh Duke is calling im gone. Coaches at programs with sustained Power 5 level success like a Bennett at UVA will think long and hard.

You may want to pump the brakes a tad...
Let's see game 1 first, hmm.

It great to be excited about Wade and LSU's future in basketball but....
Let's see him actually coach a game before you annoint him as a basketball equivalent to Saban.
Wade has done a really good job of turning over the roster in a short time. But this roster is still very weak.
He needs a couple of solid classes and then we can talk about Tourney bids and he needs to show he can put butts in seats before possibly even talking about extending his contract.

Should get rid of basketball and spend that money on football and baseball.
