Culotta craps on the basketball team but doesn’t criticize Will Wade for any of it

Everytime he brings this up in football with what Brian Kelly has to deal with, he is quick to blame Coach O and Derek Ponamsky and crew (rightfully so) but when it comes to the basketball team that Mike McMahon has to deal with, none of it is Will Wade’s fault. He is saying how LSU’s APR is in danger and not impressed with the commitments and transfers because they are not 5 stars like Wade was getting. I love Will Wade and hate that he is not here anymore but it was his fault for being careless and stupid compared to how other coaches handle recruiting. You can’t shite on the basketball program and not criticize Will Wade for his part in it.

Yeah I like Culotta but he is loyal to a fault with Wade. You can wish Wade was still here and support the new staff at the same time, these aren’t opposing views. I really like the transfers so far they just need to keep coming. If we get KJ and another 4-5 on the level of the transfers we have gotten so far we can be a competitive team next year.

That's because it's a cult.

People got caught up in something exciting and can't let go.

He's been unbearable to listen to ever since the firing. Every time I tune in he's talking about it. shite gets old quick.

Because the "allegations" were just that, allegations.

Your expectations for the media is to bash a person based on allegations?

And JC is correct, MM's commitments are no where near as talented as WW's class for next season. That's not even debatable. It's a top 10 team for WW versus a cellar dweller team for MM.

I like Jordy & his show, but man he is delusional over anything regarding Wade. Has an excuse for everything. Yes Jordy, will Wade was just randomly in the same Birmingham restaurant as Watford was during a dead period & just so happened to talk to his parents. Yap, totally random.

Wade was frickin sloppy & Jordy admitted it the day the allegations hit. The backtracking since then is kind of sad on his part.

Jordy and his side kick producer Lloyd are tools. Dude can't even get the music right during the show. Jordy lets his personal feelings get in the way of objectivity. I was a Wade supporter but the dude was careless and it is what it is. Of course the new coach cant bring in 5 stars right now, I personally have been impressed with his commitments so far. Is it elite talent of course not but give the guy a reasonable chance instead of down talking the new guy.

If I'm an AD I can easily defend sloppy.

No one is taking down the new guy.

The new guy is doing the best he can in a situation that was caused by the AD. It did not and does not have to go down this way. It's so painful seeing this class dissolve and knowing what it could have been.

What JC is saying needs to be said, repeatedly.
Woodward biatched out for his buddy Emmert @ NCAA, an organization that's becoming more and more powerless by the minute.
Now we are about to watch current players and incoming 5 stars from Wades recruiting class kick our arses in- freaking conference.
Woodward abandoned the program. he needed to ride out sanctions with Wade no matter what.
NCAA will have no hold over recruiting violations much longer.

I know. LSU fans have such a low standard they named the court after a coach that had zero tourney wins in his first 5 years.

Something weird going on with that relationship between Culotta and Wade.

You would have fired Wade too

Imagine thinking Woodward should sacrifice himself for Wade.

A coach who brought Major NCAA Sanctions to LSU, a liar and snake oil salesman, named Dale Brown…..

This was a 5-lb-tray-of-crawfish sloppy, though. Wade was a moron. Jordy loves that man to a fault. It was sad to see Jordy admit Wade’s faults and then backtrack a day later when Wade (most likely) texted him all his excuses, which were reached at best

This team will be competing in 2-3 years. Just have to deal with Jordy’s insufferable bitching until then
