a school with an athletic department as elite as LSU can do better than Wade.



Then why haven't they?

We just ran off the best strength and conditioning coach in college football a couple years ago. Disgracefully I might add. Now he is at A&M.

I was upset about Wade being fired but I'm not still bitching about it 2 yrs later. Like I said, get a life. LOL. If Mcmahon gets his recruits next year then I'll judge him a little more harshly. Without a PG this team will be lucky to beat anyone. If Cook get approved they have a shot at being good.

It's also indicative or our society when one coach is fired, for no proven crime, to protect another coach's crimes and protect his program.
Kansas didn't protect his bumbling arse. They did what LSU should have done years ago.

“If Cook get approved they have a shot at being good.”


No they don’t and you can’t just keep saying next year when there’s no actual improvement in recruiting and the talent we already have is more than enough to produce much better results. As far as your obsession with fans who are upset, again there’s plenty reason to be both with the previous coach’s firing and the current coach’s hiring and performance.

Wade people will never admit that he caused himself to be fired, no one else did. And they will also never admit that woody can ever do anything good. They only deal in absolutes.

I can’t wait until lsu is back on top and they have to come back with their tails between their legs and admit they’re happy to be back because of woody.

As usual a lot of false statements, irony, ignorance and Wade obsession in your post.

Wade obeseeion? I was waiting for that. Wade people literally making late night wade threads. Yeah, that’s not obsession.

And I ask again, point out exactly what I said that was false, ironic, or ignorant. Because everything I posted is based on fact.

Has zero relevance to my comment. He said he was getting better and better, and he statistically got worse. No one said anything about CMM, you're brining him into the conversation is irrelevant.

Not to mention, Will Wade hasn't won 1 game as coach this year.

You know MBB is in the shitter when even the shill squad doesn't want to talk about the current coach.

Brah this is about as good as LSU Basketball can hope for. You just got to make it to have a chance at a run. Plenty of mediocre teams get hot. Except for Matt McMahon's Murray st teams. they lose to 15 seeds( i couldn't help myself)

Literally everybody agrees the current coach is sucking right now. No one has said otherwise.

So respond to whoever’s doing that because I haven’t yet you’re always projecting your vague, blanket assumptions onto me. You can’t discuss the facts so it’s constant hyperbolic false statements and assumptions with you.

Go read my history, I talk about him plenty...just didn't bring him up because he had nothing to do with Will Wade getting better and better when his record got worse and worse

Was he really a great recruiter if he was paying people out of his own account? The doesn’t seem like recruiting as much as it does purchasing.

Better and better as a coach is accurate. After the first 2 seasons, even though we won the SEC year 2, he began to experiment with defenses because we weren’t up to par in comparison to the offense. In his last year he found something that worked to an elite level on D that could match our offensive production. When you don’t really follow the sport you can’t know this but people who did saw the big improvement in having a top 10 defense nationally to match the consistent top 10 offensive production we’d been getting from his teams. You also ignore that we had 4 starters injured his last year, 2 of them for extended periods of time yet still managed a 6 seed in the NCAA tourney for a coach who was still under 40 years of age.

As much as I don't care for Wade, he at least struck gold with Shahada Wells at McNeese, so I'll say he's a good recruiter. Either that or he's still using his own money to get players in there.

what false statements and assumptions?

wade did some questionable stuff: fact
wade got caught: fact
wade didn't cooperate with his employer in an ongoing investigation on if the two items listed above were a big deal or not: fact
wade agreed to amend his contract to allow if lsu was served with level 1 or 2 violations he could be fired w cause: fact
lsu was served and wade was fired: fact
wade received a 2 year show cause and was also suspended his first 10 games at mcneese: fact

do they just hand out suspensions and show causes for fun? do coaches typically just accept these types of penalties if they are in fact not guilty?

all of theses things actually happened in real life.

That’s it, completely change the subject as usual and no, not all of what you just posted is fact.
