I understand. You're immature dweebs who can't get over it. I was a Wade fan but I damn sure not gonna be on here bitching about him being fired 3 years later. But then I'm a full grown man with a life.

This is accurate. Although he has evolved into a better motion offense coach. He used the time off to study some of the most efficient offenses in the game.


Completely inaccurate. Explain how he was consistently in the top 10 in offensive efficiency while at lsu.

What makes you think that WW can win in the NCAA tournament at another school when he couldn't even win in post-season at LSU in 5 years?


Considering he wasn’t on the bench of 2 of the 3 NCAA tournaments at LSU, I’d argue his postseason record here is moot. He was 1-1 the year he was allowed to coach and was an 8 seed so his record that year is consistent with seed expectation.

and if he weren't such an idjet to say damning words over the phone in combination with being a certified cheat he would still be the coach at LSU. But that proved to be a bit too much to ask of him.

LSU is a football first and baseball second university. Most reasonable fans understand this. Knowing this, most reasonable fans don’t expect LSU to be in contention for a basketball championship or even final four every year. Most reasonable fans honestly would be very satisfied with a team that plays hard, is competitive, always in the running for a SEC championship, makes the tournament every year and wins at least the first two rounds and makes a run at sweet 16 or better once every several years. Most reasonable fans just wants a competitive team that is fun to watch. This is exactly what Will Wade brought to the table. He built basketball teams that were fun to watch and were competitive. He would have had us in the top of the SEC every year, in the tournament every year and with a chance to make a deep run every several years. He loved being here and would have been content spending his entire career here.

Makes perfect since to me and I would take that back in a heartbeat.


None of this fricking matters. The decision to terminate Will Wade was made based upon whatever reasons the administration thought best whether it was right or wrong. Whether McMahon is retained or not for another year will be based upon what the same administration believes, again right or wrong the choice will be made and it makes no fricking difference what you or I or anyoneLSE believes.

WHAT DOES MATTER IS THE POSTS ABOUT WADE OR MCMAHON MONOPOLIZING OVER HALF THIS BOARD EVERY DAY, NOT ONE frickING ORIGINAL THOUGHT JUST A BUNCH OF PITHY COPY CAT COMMENTS. iTS GODDMNED TIME FOR THIS TO STOP.

Explain the high rankings in offensive efficiency when he was here? Just luck?


Tremont Waters. Jovante Smart
As I said he could really bringem in. And these two were top 8/10 point guards in the sport at their time. Both saved many a possession w the clock running down. The dribble drive offense requires superior point guards play. He relied on it much more than motion to create open shots. He has evolved into to coaching both. But recruiting the right guards was/is his best talent.

You are mostly correct on this. Currently, baseball is second at LSU because everyone loves a winner, and our basketball program is sucking hind tit.

What these mouth breathers don't understand however, is had we kept Wade as we should have, basketball would be firmly second to football, because Wade would have had us just like AUB, bama , and Tennessee right now, and that level of excitement in a winning men's basketball program would DWARF the excitement our fanbase has over baseball.

Also, (and this probably won't happen again because Saban elevated our football program after his hiring to an elite level) , there was a good 10-12 year period where basketball was NUMBER ONE on campus, when Dale was at his peak.

I understand this makes the youngsters that don't know any better head's spin, but it is ONE BILLION PERCENT TRUE.

That's the case with most of these baseball over basketball retards-and not all of them are self aware enough to realize it.

Yes he cheated. No excuse right. Except that if you didn't cheat to recruit you were going to get your brains beaten out every season cause everyone else was doing the same thing, with only a few exceptions. And its been the culture since sometime shortly after Dr. Naismith nailed up the first peach basket!

Everything I said was accurate.
I can only explain it to you. I can't make you understand. That probably stems from your childhood upbringing

Holy shite. You ranted all last night trying to frantically reply to me and other people at the same time without ever really saying anything. You got proven wrong and just called everyone a liar and stupid. That was your defense. And now the first time I look at this today and reply to someone else,.... you're immediately on it again. How did you even see my reply? Lol.. Do you just hover on this board? Wow That honestly just makes it worse. You're like a nerd but without information a nerd would have lmfao )

Are you two people? Are you on Adderall? Why are you replying to me when I'm replying to someone else. Are they both you? Lmfao! Everything I said was true. Every single thing. You can call it dumb if it makes you feel less dumb yourself. It doesn't change facts

A- you’re incorrect again, everything you said has been false. B- I had a reply from this thread so I looked at the thread. Are you so insecure that you think you can police peoples habits on the board? Are you so embarrassed for people to see your incredible idiocy that you believe you can only fool new posters? Yea, that makes since coming from someone who makes silly and fantastically stupid posts like yourself.

He’s seriously the dummest I’ve ever seen. A religious devotion to his imagination and a total rejection of reality. Maybe he’s the next evolution of low IQ, ignorant fan. They’re getting worse you know.
