What must Willy Wade do to win over more of the LSU fan base? LSU basketball (while at times frustrating) is simply the more entertaining product at this point in time. What says the rant?

If he somehow skates the NCAA his popularity will soar to unpearalleled heights.

Consistently in NCAAT. Covid killed that.

Also, his style of play is fan centric. Lots of running and points. Once fans can get back in the PMAC, in force, watch out.

I think there are simply more baseball fans than basketball fans in south LA right now.

Also basketball sucks, so there's that

Winning championships.

Think about it, if LSU baseball makes the equivalent of the sweet 16, fans want the coach fired.

Will Wade has only coached one tournament game and some basketball fans want a statue of him.

The expectations are not even comparable at this point.

There was a time when basketball at LSU had phenomenal suppport considering they never won an NC. Dale Brown had his shortcomings, but he sold the program like no other. But if LSU ever wins an NC or consistently goes deep into the tourney, then the fan support will increase pretty dramatically.

It’s way closer here than you think now. NCAA Hoops all over the world dwarf college baseball. From a local viewers standpoint more will watch tomorrow than have ever watched CWS game. Fact

Been way more popular in this household for years. No knock on baseball, but college hoops is infinitely more enjoyable.

College basketball is far more popular than college baseball,
99% of the country could give a shite about college baseball.
