Wait...you are saying a "drawn up play" would have resulted in a better look than what Gaines had at the end of the game. Pray tell which "play" would have resulted in a better look than the one that Gaines got. He basically got an open look in nearly the same spot he previously knocked down 3 3's. 3 point line is 22 feet and we had to take a 3. He shot it from 25 probably. What would you have drawn up, Wooden?

So we should never run set plays?
A set playground have gotten the ball up court faster and time was the enemy, clown. Not a great shot, but definitely rushed, after pump fake, and second player in proximity.

Nothing earth shaking, but maybe get a play with set screens and get inbound pass further than ONE frickING FOOT

You want Johnny Jones again? When’s the last time LSU basketball has been this prominent and winning?



What the hell does Johnny Jones have to do with anything!? What a stupid stupid comment!
It’s not a question of whether we get Johnny Jones or Will Wade. Jones is not even an option. We live in the here and now and plan for the future in the real world.


Bottom line here- if you’re okay with a winning season and maybe a trip to the ncaa tournament then wade is fine. If you want a championship caliber coach then he has not proven to be that guy! The evidence is clear from his results.

What is it you want?

He is about to make 4 straight trips with LSU, winning a game in every tournament.

It’s a combination of thinking (more than expecting) we need to win every single game like another sport, plus the catastrophe syndrome of losing to bama (again, like another sport)

You can't deal in facts with these guys. Wade has won 1 NCAA trny game. If LSU went 8-8 this year they would still make excuses.

It's actually expecting to make a deep run every now and then. This team once again has too many weaknesses to achieve that in year 5 of Wade. He gets talent, he wins games, but in college basketball you are measured by NCAA trny success.

This fanbase is bipolar. It's always feast or famine. Either we are going to the Final Four or we won't win another SEC game. Anything in between is settling for mediocrity and can't be condoned.

First, there's more than 16 SEC games each year, so you already don't know the most basic things to act like you know anything.

Second, outside of year one, coming off of a 2-16 conference record btw, Wade has not come close to being .500 in SEC ball.

In summary, STFU dummy.

I can assure you I have watched WAY more LSU games in person and on TV. Second, I'm very aware there are 18 games...I made a mistake. I've posted in many posts I expect 12-6 at best.

I assure you I hope Wade makes a very deep run this year. However, until he does...
