lol never fails, can’t refute the statement so you go straight to name calling.

You conflated my point and turned it into something that it wasn't. Again, just because there are other good guards in the league does not make Thomas any worse of a player.

And miss me with the "muh name calling" after you're not so subtle jab about "you guys."

You act like he did no due diligence and just kicked them to the curb just because they were on a crappy team last year. We don't have any idea why they left or why they didn't re-sign with LSU or if Wade pursued them.

I feel like assuming he reached out and couldn't reach an agreement he felt was in the best interest of LSU is lot more logical than your assumption.

Worse than a high level power conference guard yes it does, those players are that and he isn’t because they’re better. Thats not conflation that’s refutation. You skipped over me saying he was a good player to misrepresent my statement.

This right here drives home the point. There’s a difference from saying that a group who shares your opinion said something crazy and calling someone directly retarded. So you not only accuse me of what you’re doing, you’ve twice intentionally misrepresented what I’ve said. None of it necessary btw, if your argument could stand on its own.

No it doesn't. There are 4 other power conferences. Cherry picking the best guards out of arguably the best conference and saying they are better doesn't make him any less of a "high level power conference guard."

You conveniently skipped over how, by your own metric, Ugo can be considered a better player than Thomas when he wasn't even close to being one of the best in his conference.

Correct one of those things gets directly to the point and the other dances around the insult so that the person who posted it can attempt to "woe is me" out the situation.

I didn't say it was a mistake. I said time will tell if it proves to be a misstep or not.

No one is saying he didn't reach out or try to recruit them back. The question is did he assume there would be better talent available in the transfer portal when he was doing that negotiating. This ended up being a weak portal cycle. He said that himself in a recent interview. That is totally logical for anyone that has followed the transfer portal over the last few years.

Just because you disagree doesn't make it a lie. I am once again asking for you to tell me how, by your own metric, Ugo is better than Dedan Thomas.

The same way I never said Dedan Thomas was a top 5 PG in the SEC last year. Glad we're both on the same page.

And I never claimed you did. You can continue to lie if you want, it doesn’t seem to bother you and seems to soothe your rage.

You said that = "high level power conference guard" and since he wasn't top 5 he couldn't be a "high level power conference guard." You can continue to lie if you want.

If wishcasting that this exchange somehow has me in a rage makes you feel better, go ahead.

I think Wade is still trying to get Qadir Copeland to run the point. He's gonna need a few breaks to make it happen though.

Yes, my claim not yours and a rough example. You said “top guard”, there are more than 5 in the SEC outside of PGs. I can run off a long list of other guards from other conferences off the top of my head if you like. You seem to have alot of trouble with simple distinctions and truth.
