It's what Mascona is saying and he of course says he is getting it from big money donors in the know directly who have told him there is "donor fatigue".

Something tells me they'll find a way. I just can't see how they can go to the fan base and say we're going to continue in this direction...they have already lost most of it.....the basketball fan base that is.

If basketball disappeared forever, I wouldn’t even know it!
LSU needs a break between winning programs. That should always be mid January to mid February!

Worst news for LSU Softball fans...if Beth isn't run out of here! She's been milking it for years now, and still can't put a championship calibrer team together.
If she has to work at LSU, I say let her operate the concession stands.

I can’t imagine they’ll drag this out another year.

If Jay has a good season in baseball and the Lane Train rolls thru with any solid success, there’s no way they allow basketball to suck arse again.

Whatever "source" youre listening to is getting their info from mascona who has been carrying mcmahons water for the last few years. From what I have gathered they are friends. But at first mascona insisted he was a good coach, he was just in a terrible spot bc of wade. Then he insisted the team was terrible because they didnt have any NIL. Then he ran with the narrative that mcmahon is a good coach, just unlucky. Now hes pushing that lsu doesn't have the money to fire him. I think mascona just needs to be prepared to lose his buddy at the end of the season because its happening no matter what shite he tries to push out there

There's a term for this - or multiple terms.

One has something to do with posts and another with crawfish.

Yea its funny how this unlucky narrative is starting to just get slammed on this board and online all of sudden.


Just keep in mind if we didn't get curb stomp at home by an 11 win team and a 12 win team, CMM probably would be keeping his job.

Hell with our Kenpom, you win those two and you beat OK and OM we would probably be right on the bubble.

I agree, he said the same of Kelly. Of course he did point that out but said this is different.

Why not? The LSU athletic department has already proven they have no issues spitting in the faces of their own basketball fans. I’m just counting on him being here his full contract and if he’s canned before then, I’ll be pleasantly surprised.

The LSU men’s basketball program is not a serious one.

The cheaper fire is to fire Beth.


Not an either/or. I have zero inside info, but don't think either is here next season.

There's no way you can keep a men's basketball coach who is drawing 500 fans for home a game! No way he's gone!
