Those were really fun times. A lot of good memories. You can criticize Dale Brown about being a bad Xs and Os coach, and he was, but he was an incredible motivator. He would go to the mat for his kids and they reciprocated on the floor. They always played hard.

The current issue with the MBB program is not necessarily CMMs fault. It emanates from Scott Woodward. Woodward does not say that MBB is a low priority at LSU but he shows that it's a low priority.

The most disappointing thing a bout Woodward is that he takes the easy way out in terms of business negotiations with money. He is not a fighter. He is not the type of person that will intentionally cause conflict to change the frame in negotiations. He fully demonstrated his Republican RINO tendencies during the CWW debacle.

Think for a moment, for example.

Sit down with Will Wade and tell him to come clean. Once you understand the full situation you can then set the parameters to publicly defend WW. It would have been amazing public fight to see Woodward with WW versus Pat Forde and Dick Vitale (and by extension the NCAA). And if the NCAA would have sanctioned LSU basketball, who cares? Seriously would the basketball program being sanctioned in '22, '23 and '24 would have been any worse than what we are experiencing right now under CMM?




The difference between not fighting for WW and fighting for WW (at the time) is earned political capital from the fan base. If Scott would have joined WW for the fight instead of cucking out to Pat Forde and Dick Vitale his political capital reservoir would have been full to the brim.

Lessoned learned: don't be a cuck.
