The problem is that McMahon doesn't inspire donirs to open their pocket books. He is a lower quintile sec coach. He has wasted donor money on poorly constructed rosters. He does less with more. Being that lsu and donors seem to nit prioritize men's bb, we need a coach that can do more with less.

Since Wade isn't coming back, we will either suffer more poor results with McMahon, go try to find a diamond in the rough with another mid major hopful, or go get a winner from another power 5 school. Woodward and donors will make that decision.

how hard to imagine is it? could a person with superior imagining skills do it?

I asked for a received a fairly credible reason why LSU would lie about an increase in money. it seemed imaginable that LSU lied. it also seemed imaginable that they were not lying and more money was coming and could help.

i mean if our own incredulity is what we are arguing with here, might as well be unable to imagine LSU is lying

topic is basketball, not your poor speculation on my mental state. I actually just won the gulf coast calmness championship. 4th in a row. but forget that.

lets say that since McMahon was hired, he was operating with less money than the top teams. this is imaginable. lets say 5% chance

and lets say LSU is telling the truth and now McMahon will have competitive money. seems possible he could win, if the thing holding him back was player prices, which seems possible.

today in a press conference, will wade says winning is mostly about the players. he said "its not the jockey, its the horse". maybe wade is correct.

Ain’t losing sleep over basketball period. Couldn’t give two shits about the entire program. If you bitches would quit crying about it, it would free up a lot of space on the board. Thanks

Corey chest is the 17th ranked player in the portal right now.



then the portal is currently very weak, because Corey Chest is not currently an SEC player, and will not be anytime soon. He and Angel Reece are head to head for the worst shot taker at LSU over the last few years.

You definitely have much more common sense and a brain than Mad. My question is why do you argue with that complete loser. Can't you tell he isn't working with a full deck? He is a legend in his own dream. Take a shot at him, but don't go back and forth...you will lose brain cells.

Corey Chest with a full season of minutes and not just one good game

6 PPG, 6 RPG, 0.7 APG, 1.2 TO-PG.


he has the worst shot I've seen since Angel Reece, and those two are the worst I've ever seen at LSU.

Don't argue with that absolute loser. Chest single handedly lost one game, I believe it was OM. Had it won....he misses an easy dunk that would have likely put the game away, then has another opportunity at FTs and air balls....then gets upset and draws a technical...all over a 2 minute span...allowing OM to get back in the game. That was the typical offensive game. Also, that nut job bragging about good stats against Alabama....EVERYBODY has good stats offensively against bama....they speed up play, getting many more possessions, and don't play much defense, or didn't for most of the year.

McMahon huggers blame everyone except the head coach. McMahon should have already been fired. That is the bottom line.

Texas makes the needed change and drastically improves the coach. LSU stays the same with a proven loser. Typical LSU basketball decision making.

I'm sold:

Let's put Madcuck, Alt, Saint22, and Adam on retainer. Could get them on the cheap, get mad out of his mother's basement, and they clearly understand what it takes to construct a competitive basketball team in the SEC. They have all the answers, have inside knowledge of our basketball team and athletic department, and understand all the behind the scenes things that are going on. As clearly as they value their own opinions (this new generation is hardworking, intelligent, efficient, and NOT entitled, and has great work ethic), I am 100% confident they know more about basketball than MM or anyone in LSU's athletic department. Seriously, throw them $25K each, and let them build our team for next year. We would minimum be middle of pack if not better in one year.....I'm all in.

So here is my opinion why keeping guys like chest is crucial. Let’s say for the sake of argument that your right and chest is garbage. At the very least you get bench players and DEPTH. Depth is a huge reason teams like Michigan state are successful this year. If this NIL theory would happen to hit, at most ya being in 4-5 players, I may be wrong but I’ve never heard of a coach bringing in 8-9 quality players from the portal. So now let’s just say we get the 4-5 quality players, you gonna need some depth so keeping players like cheat does have an upside.Even if ya believe his offense is trash, that’s ok, you need scrappy energy guys, every team has them. It’s rare ya gonna have 5 guys on the court who can all score.

Because we have limited financial resources and 3 other big men on the roster who will probably get minutes (and paid) before him. We're going to have to drop some bags to get the scorers we need.

Where exactly was WW getting money from- the $400,000 for Naz and the “strong arse offer” for JS didn’t actually come out of his wife’s ckbook


He can raise funds. Which is another reason the NIL Narrative loses steam fairly quickly. At a school like LSU where men's basketball is a step-child the mens coach has to be the main fund raiser.....we're not Kentucky or Kansas or Duke where there are huge coffers of money waiting to be used as needed for basketball. Money has to be actively raised in real time.

So if lack of NIL funding is the issue, CMM is complicit in that.

Tell Auburn basketball a large NIL budget doesn’t matter……they spend almost $9 million on their roster.
