I’ve never watched more than a cumulative 2 minutes of basketball in my life. The only more boring sport is baseball.

Grow up. It's a game. Entertainment. Nothing more.

Why not? You can watch your crush coaching NC State every week.

People are viewing the OP's statement as he stopped viewing out of some sort of "protest". But the reality is a lot of LSU fans could probably say the same thing. Not out of protest. But because McMahon has never given them a reason to watch.

There aren't a lot of hardcore LSU basketball fans. But fans of LSU in general will become interested in any sport that is winning. See gymnastics and women's basketball as just two examples. MM played an uninterestingly weak non-conf. schedule in his first season, then went 2-16 in SEC play. He's gone 15-36 in SEC play since that first season. So there has never been any draw for casual fans to watch since Wade left.

I watched a few games a year just to see the caliber of team we had, but once it got to conference play i couldn't watch anymore.

Exactly. Winning draws interest. MM with a 17-52 SEC record = 0 interest.

You're proving the point I made about McMahon. There's a large segment of the fanbase who was never going to support him no matter what he did because they're obsessed with the last coach.

The continued losing doesn’t help things sir.

Probably not, and you’re certainly not the only one who has creepy man love for the “General”!!

Not a big basketball fan and IDK why but Will Wades teams win or lose are fun to watch. The fun factor is definitely missing from this LSU basketball. IMO
