re: MBB Offseason '25 Transfer Portal Tracker

Nobody is defending McMahon or predicting he will turn it all around. We simply accept that he is here another year and are trying to be objective about what the roster looks like while wanting to be a little hopeful. Trolling every thread with how bad he sucks and insulting him is just grown posters throwing temper tantrums because he didn't get fired. On Wade if there are posters who didn't want to keep him they can be counted on one hand. He had us where we wanted to be every year. We all wish that crap didn't happen but he gets some if not the majority of the blame. He admits he screwed up. It isn't all on LSU he absolutely fricked up big time, a lot of it before he even coached here. He admits this but some posters here can't, it's laughable

So you just ignored the post I responded to with the clear personal attack? He called the coach a clown, what would you call that? Try to keep up if you are gonna jump into other posters interactions and don't use hard to understand terms like "ALL" if they are beyond your understanding.

I would say calling him a "clown", while maybe not the adjective I would use, was an attack within the context of his professional capacity as a coach. Semantics, I suppose. But no one has really knocked McMahon as being a bad guy in general...just a bad coach.

It has been “player X isn’t good, player Y isn’t good, this transfer class is so mediocre, international player with no American experience won’t do much, we have less talent than last year…”

Then it is “McMahon with this roster has ZERO excuse not to go to the tourney.”…what? Do we suck or not? I’m so confused. So the roster has no talent, but they have enough for McMahon to get to the tourney. So if we miss it he sucks and if he makes it still sucks but the talent was good.

I don’t know how anyone can be a fan ridiculing every player we get and bashing the coach nonstop. It is McMahon’s last chance. I don’t think anyone will remotely disagree. We had 2 shite years and 1 year showing promise. It is WILD to me that so many are clearly hoping for us to suck, but they will try to say they aren’t even though post after post after post it is obvious. What a miserable way to be

If McMahon doesn’t do it this year, I will help him pack his bags. But when November comes, I will watch every second of every game and root like Hell for us to win.

What's laughable is that you think Wade was being TRULY contrite when admitting his past "mistakes".

The fact is, EVERY MOTHERFLUCKING TOP PLAYER has been ILLEGALLY bought and paid for since before the John Wooden days.

It's beyond hypocritical that grown ups act like there is this rogue element in college sports that breaks the rules just because they've "bad dudes" and that certain coaches St. K at Duke and others do it the right way.

That is so far from reality, and it's why it's so hypocritical to go after a guy like Wade who was just doing what had to be done to win.

Meanwhile, all the "respected" news mouthpieces like prick vitale and gay Bilas COMPLETELY IGNORE what is going on across the board, especially at Duke.


Gay Bilas played for them. He knows exactly how the sausage is made.

There aren't many things worse than a hypocrite. I do my best to not be one EVER. I'm not perfect so I probably haven't succeeded in that. But I still try my damdest.

But Will Wade is Jesus Christ right?

Nope. Not even close to a correct assessment, at least where I'm concerned. I want McMahon to turn into Bruce Pearl IMMEDIATELY so we don't have to fire him, and we just keep him and let him win big here. Any rational thinker knows this is like hoping for a lottery win. I've seen enough of him. There would've been signs along the way. An upset or three. Nope, nothing. Just horrible performances stacked on top of each other.

…you literally proved my point

You want him to win but you are so wise you know he won’t, therefore you are ready for him to lose…which is what I’m saying

Listen closely retard.

Will Wade is an INFINITELY better coach than this really nice guy we have running our program now.

We had him here, and we pissed that away out of some duty to appear to be against breaking the rules which is absurd. You can run a clean program or you can win, but you can't do both.

I would take Golden, Pearl or Oates over Wade. And there are others.

But we had Wade here and by all accounts, he was in it long term. How a true LSU fan can't be so mad he wants to spit right now is beyond me.

If you enjoy LESS than mediocre teams yearly, that really nice guy we have coaching us now is YOUR MAN!!!!

Retarded is what your posts are , is Will Wade through Dogshit, better than John Brady, one has a Final Four and one is done in March like Dinner, what about Dale Brown is he better than him doubtful, he's your delusion, but he's mediocre

I don't have a translator handy so I'm having trouble understanding your post.

Compare the first five years of Dale (who I LOVED as a young tigah growing up in the 80s) with Wade's five at LSU. It's not even close who was better. Give Wade 25 years at the helm, and I'd love to have seen what happened.

Brady took over a truly impossible situation at LSU and did about as good of a job as could be expected, eventually making a final four.

Brady's problem was that at that time, his momma didn't even like him, much less the players or most involved with the program. He also produced McMahon type seasons way more than he produced good ones. Wade had us highly competitive every year.

Hypotheticals aren't easy to predict. I believe Wade would have won for years here, just like he has everywhere he's been. Look at Wade's career record and how he has won conference CHAMPIONSHIPS and made the big dance at every stop he's been. Then look up the definition of mediocre and see how well that matches your description of Wade's performance as a HC.

And he's about to GO OFF in Raleigh, which will further illuminate how our AD completely screwed our program into the ground. Lucky us!!!!

I’ve come back to some very interesting discussion here I see
