I believe Mcneese offered when Wade was there but Santa Clara reminded him a lot of ponchatula and so he felt more comfortable there bc of the similarities between the towns


I’ve been to Northern California and I’ve been to tangipahoa parish.

I’ve decided your post is satire.

He practically had zero coaching. I wonder how he would do playing for a real coaching staff.

For every glimpse he was soft we saw glimpses he was turning into something special. He would have extremes of both ends of the spectrum. The athleticism cannot be questioned. Plenty of times he looked like he just started playing ball. I’d like the new staff to give him a shot if he wants it.

He isn't soft, he just doesnt have a feel for:

rebounding
playing defense
passing
cleanly catching the ball

He never got comfortable on offense or defense this year. Not getting into coaching but he has a very high ceiling if you can get him to buy into 1 aspect. Would have chosen trapping top of key screens, be available to deflect, run, and score

The kid is soo long and fast, his offense would come once he knew his role. Don’t have to teach rebounding unless he’s your starter on block.

Hope lions offer him if CWW has better options.

Yep, looks like he just started playing at times for the reasons you listed.

Every McMahon team was soft. No urgency, grit, or toughness. Seemed under conditioned. Wade’s teams were gritty and had plenty of effort and appeared to be better conditioned than opponents.

I don’t disagree that Miller is soft, but it could potentially be fixed with a better system. I thought Thomas was soft too, but would have loved for him to stick it out here and develop a toughness edge under Wade if he had it in him. We’ll see for Thomas in Houston bc that program has similar grit expectations. Wade could potentially coax it out of Miller too and if not, would be a good depth piece.

If Madar is on board then just need to go lock in 100% Graves and Dessert and get Hampton to reclassify. That gives you a pretty solid 9 and then fill in the rest with unpaid or very minimal paid guys.

I'm starting to think all these Euro based news reports are very suspect. Why are no US outlets picking up on these? Why are NIL deals for signings with other teams not being reported in advance as breaking headlines?

Yea I just think we are getting wacked with 75% accurate news.


In sure we have a deal with Madar.

I doubt it's 5 million and I'm willing to bet we haven't announced it yet because he has to get cleared which may take some time depending on each Euros situation.

This kind of information would be the ones you hear about because of the transfer fee, so it could very well be accurate.
