LFG. I can’t wait for this. Will always be my favorite LSU basketball coach. I was never more into LSU basketball than when Will Wade was the coach.


Amen brutha and I've been a passionate LSU basketball fan since the 70's but he had me as fired up as ever.

He did it at VCU


Will Wade made Javonte Smart a "strong-arse offer" to play for VCU? That's news to me.

quote:

“I was thinking last night on this Smart thing,” Wade told Dawkins in the audio clip. “I’ll be honest with you, I’m f***ing tired of dealing with the thing. Like I’m just f***ing sick of dealing with this s**t. … What do you think? Because I went to him with a f***ing strong-arse offer about a month ago. F***ing strong.

I fully support this. Heck, I don't know if I can even stomach attending LSU basketball games after what the administration did to Will Wade.


Spoken like a fan of a coach and not LSU. Will Wade did it to himself. And it cost him and LSU.

But I am looking forward to the podcast. The guy sure was easy to like as the LSU coach.

But no other coaches had evidence of them paying players out of their own checking account.

What evidence has been shown of this? Isnt it an allegation?

Someone responsible for much worth just got hired at Auburn so this is great timing.

You're not replying to my point. Wade used his wife's account as you pointed out as happening while at LSU. That is blatantly false and too many people are running with that lie as gospel. Anytime I tell someone that incident happened at VCU, their jaw drops because they've been told it happened at LSU. The whole story can be found in the notice of allegations. It's not hidden, it's in plain view!

Wade was dumb at VCU for that. But he notified law enforcement and admitted that during his hiring process at LSU.

So in the spirit of integrity, you should edit the post to reflect the truth.

Ngl, I’m having trouble getting into the new basketball regime. We’ve never unceremoniously lost a coach in such a manner before. When most coaches leave, the handwriting is already on the wall. Wade’s departure felt abrupt and without closure.

Completely agree. I've got nothing against McMahon but I'm just not feeling it.

Will Wade deserves someone with Culatta’s technical proficiency managing his podcast.

Wade needs to get lost and go.

Decent LSU fans don't want him around. Why worship an ex-coach who put the bball team on the ropes with his shenanigans?

It is basically an ad for a podcast.

I wish it was because the admins are sick of hearing about Wade.

everything he was accused of doing has now become completely legal and legitimate!


If you really are a LSU graduate the school should take your diploma back. Nothing Wade did was legal under NCAA rules before or after NIL was passed. Why you dumb asses keep saying this is beyond all logic. Wade was paying players directly from his wife’s checking account. This is still not legal under NIL.

Please explain how this is legal now under the NIL rules and how it can be retroactively applied in a way that allows everything he did to be swept away?
