Basketball-We need a coach-UNACCEPTABLE RESULTS!

Why do you assume this? This team is limited offensively due to lack of shooters. They also go through stretches of games where they don't give great effort defensively and dig themselves a hole. They're middle of the pack in the league all things considered.

WW does not have the character needed to lead young men but he is a great recruiter. Would need really good assistants to run the program with him as head coach.

When is enough, enough? Wait until next year gets really old. WW makes life changing money in one year. The fans should expect close to the same, IMO.

Just my opinion... sometimes one has to look no farther than the assistant coaches! This corps of assistants has proven to be great recruiters, but don't seem to be very good at player development into a system on both ends of the floor... defense seems to be fine, but offensive philosophy seems to be almost non-existent. Let's get more on the floor coaching during practice and during games! Again, just one man's opinion!

I don't think anyone argues his recruiting success. People do have valid concerns over his coaching ability. You talk about the success and how quickly he turned it around. In basketball some teams literally rebuild annually. He has 1 win in the NCAA trny at LSU and is in year 5. This year has tanked. How long do you give him to perform in the post season? I don't think fire him, but next year he better turn it on in March. I do not think he is Woodwards guy. Jmo.

Surely you are old enough to have experienced the highs of March Madness in the past?

We went to the sweet 16 3 years ago.

That was 2 tournaments ago. I old enough to remember a lot of 1st round exits, a lot of missing the tournament.

I am Also old enough to remember that NO LSU coach has made the final four in their first 5 years.

This is the best start to a career in LSU history.

He also has one of the lowest salaries in the conference. The “we pay him 2.5 million he should make the sweet 16” argument is retarded when you consider there are probably 25-30 coaches with higher salaries out there.

If you watch our shooting and think we are super talented you don’t know anything about basketball.We have great defenders unfortunately you also have to score and besides Eason no one can create their own shot.Murray will get there with some experience but other than that we are a middle of the road team.Just cause we started hot doesn’t mean we are some juggernaut,Will Wade didn’t simply stop coaching just because we were winning games.Other teams just realized they can defend us by forcing us to shoot the ball from the outside and unless we just have a great night shooting we will never consistently win if we are relying on the 3 and Reid is just not developed he is not a big presence in the middle and we get out rebounded.So if you thinks team who cannot shoot 3s and doesn’t rebound the basketball better than their opponents is suppose to make the elite 8 or some dream in your head you are lying to yourself.Will Wade is bringing in the 2 way players needed to play this style of defense and score the basketball but he will need a couple seasons before we are at our full potential.You don’t just go from being a great offensive team and totally transferring into a defensive team for no reason,he was forced too cause the one shooter we had in Miller is hurt for the season and the rest of the team besides Eason is very inconsistent

Everybody needs elite talent to make it to the final four or elite 8 you bafoon

At best Will Wade is like the 8 highest paid coach in the SEC (he is probably lower the list I could find was the top 25 paid coaches in the country with 7 from the SEC) behind the likes of Conzo Martin, Buzz Williams, and Tom Cream.
