Wade got the most of what he had to work with, only four legit D1 players

Thomas, Watford, Smart and Days. The rest were just role players at best. We had the weakest bench in the SEC Lack of depth was our downfall

There was never any attempt at developing the bench. Jalen Cook’s lack of playing time was criminal.

Oh come on. Just because guys aren’t superstars doesn’t mean they aren’t D1 players.

I thought Wade did fine this season. Good, not great. The roster had flaws, but he is responsible for some of those flaws.

This is true, and Gains ain’t got no business out there with his weight. They just push him out the way and do whatever they want...

This is why LSU will never be a basketball school. Low expectations. At least 3 of those guys will be on NBA rosters next year.

Wouldn't that be Wade's fault then?

So you’re absolving the HC of fault because the roster HE recruited isn’t very deep?

This rosters was more (individually) talented than most. This simple truth is Wade has a big flaw in his philosophy (Defense) that is creating a ceiling on the program’s success.

So you're saying that Hyatt is not a d1 player because he's a role player? Leblanc, Who was a significant player at Georgetown before coming home?

Doesn't Will Wade recruit the roster? It's like saying Orgeron did the best with what he had. Four years in basketball is enough time to build a roster.
