re: CNN bigly mad at Wade hiring

The only winner in this whole sordid affair is McMahon. He will receive a buyout. But more importantly he can get the hell out of the bayou

Now THIS is what I call extreme competitive journalism. Someone stayed up all night to concoct such rubbish-- just putting the words "winner" and "McMahon" in the same sentence invalidates pretty much everything else in this narrative.

never spend one second watching or reading CNN. They lost all credibility as a news organization a long time ago.

They loved us when we were losing

It was masterfully done and they just can’t stand it. We have broken the sports world.

There are unconfirmed rumors that Matt McMahon had been told privately over the weekend that he would not be retained. It wasn’t “messy” (CNN) or “clumsy” (ESPN). It just wasn’t public.

This.

They say in the article that Schroyer is the AD and that isn't correct.

The author loses credibility by not checking facts. Schroyer was hired as deputy senior AD/executive director of external relations for the LSU System. He will oversee the men’s basketball program. We all know Verge has the title of AD.

Illinois's coach Brad Underwood left Oklahoma State after just one year. No one in the media bashed Illinois or Brad Underwood. OSU even got hit with sanctions after he left for recruiting violations. Not a peep from the national media.

More recently, Bryan Hodgson left Arkansas State after one season (2024-25) to coach at South Florida, where he left after one season (2025-26) to become the coach at Providence. You don’t hear anything about his consecutive one-and-one seasons.
Also, let’s not forget that NC State is playing the victim role even though its AD should’ve known to include an LSU clause in Wade’s contract. I mean, rumors of Wade’s return have been going on ever since he resurfaced at McNeese.

She conveniently forgot about LSU men’s basketball fans, whose numbers decreased as the losses increased. McMahon drained all of the energy out of the program.

CNN has two forms of TDS, this one is Tiger Derangement Syndrome.

LSU is now the evil Empire and I’m fricking here for it someone paint Darth vador in purple and gold and que the music
