It’s reasonable to expect he won’t return

If the new coach TRIPLES the conference win total, that gets us to .500 conference win percentage.

So what woukd be a REASONABLE expectation?


Win more conference game his first year than Mac won in four. Make the Tourney.in his first season.

Would that be a reasonable expectation in his first season?

Consistent tournament team, middle in the sec or better, sweet 16 or better when the stars align. Go look at dale browns resume. Pretty much that.

Zero expectations. Nobody cares. Football and baseball rule. MBB is not even basketball any more. I would rather watch the ladies than a bunch of meat heads take 8 steps without dribbling and miss half of their free throws. Give me MMA over mens BB. Waste of athletic department resources.

LSU1981 splitting hairs about whether Wade won 14 or 15 games in an SEC season yet he lays down for Mcloser who barely won more than 14 games in 4 SEC seasons...Jeez talk about moving the goalposts!

in his first year we will make the tourney and be around 8th in the league. in subsequent years we will be between 2 and 7 in the league and make the tournament every year, culminating in a final four in 2028 and natty in 2031

What a dumbass post.

Let me guess, you’re one of the idiots that still thinks the FBI was investigating Wade and tapped his phone.

Well obviously it guarantees a natty according to many on this site.


See, this is what you anti Wade folks don’t get. No, it doesn’t guarantee a natty and none of us who want him back think it does. What it does guarantee is immediate lifeblood and excitement into the program. What it does guarantee is that almost immediately our Men’s BBall program becomes fun and entertaining again. It means we become competitive again. It means we start going to the Dance again on a regular basis and with a coach who could potentially win a natty unlike the current coach who never will. And how do I know this, because he has already proven once that he can while the current coach has proven he can’t.

Are there other coaches out there that could be very successful here. Absolutely, and if WW doesn’t come back, I hope we get one of them.
