SEC is sticking it to LSU yet again, and Coach Wade is rightfully pissed. LSU plays late game at 8 Wednesday at Florida, then early game at 11 Saturday vs. A&M. This is the second time this has happened, after having to play late Wednesday game at Vandy, and early Saturday game at Auburn.

LSU is the ONLY team in the conference that's had this type of turnaround involving a road game, now TWICE. Auburn had it once, but both were home games. For LSU, 3 of 4 are on the road. How is this scheduling by the SEC fair? Sure looks like they're targeting Wade and LSU.

This sucks and is totally f'ed up. Props to our fearless leader for speaking out on this BS shafting, sticking up for his players, and having the balls to tell it like it is.
quote:

We’re the only team in the league that has to do this, and we’ve had to do it twice now. That’s not how it’s supposed to be. The schedule is supposed to be balanced. This isn't balanced. This isn't right.

We’ve had three out of four road games with this same setup and it cuts our guys’ preparation time down. We talk about student-athlete welfare and all that. This is not student-athlete welfare. It needs to get fixed for our players.

I don’t think any coach in the league would be happy. It just so happens it’s me and I got to stick up for LSU, and I got to stick up for our players and our program. So, I noticed it the first time we did it, but for us to have it happen twice in one year is awful cold.

While i agree with him for competitive advantage reasons, using it for student athlete welfare is pretty laughable. The time of the game on saturday has very little impact on student athlete welfare

I see way Will is upset we play the last SEC game of the weekdays on the road then have to come back and play the first SEC game of the weekend. We basically lose a day of preparation because of travel.

Will’s trying to hard here. If the Tigers win enough games in March, the SEC will make them play three games in consecutive days



ETA: Trying way to hard.

Jeez, I tend to agree more and more with other fans about how whiney some LSU folks are.
CWW had to find something to take light off him, I guess.......

So many assholes in this thread.

“Fans” complain that will wade throws his players under the bus.

Next week, will wade sticks up for his players and calls out some sec scheduling bullshite and “fans” call him a whiner.

So many fake “fans”.

Although I don't have a problem with him fussing about the schedule, you have to play 2 days apart in the NCAA tournament and less for SEC tournament. It shouldn't be that big of a deal.
