This guy absolutely has to get fired at the end of the season.
Terrible coach and terrible hire.

Pain, as Mr T once wisely said.

Very well could be by seasons end. We may have trouble hitting double digit wins this year.

Why don’t we take men’s basketball seriously here?

Obviously going to be much worse considering we started 12-0 last year.
We wont come close to that.
Woody needs to get that buyout ready, he did this to us.

Pathetic to see where we were going now, and to have zero backbone and bail on Wade.

But even if the Wade firing was inevitable you can’t go hire a guy like McMahon. There were plenty of up and comers who can actually do the job available but we chose the cheapest guy possible. If we were truly serious about basketball we’d have paid McMahon to leave last year and hired Beard. We’ll never get another chance to hire someone that age who’s that good again.

We’d have been better off keeping Wade and dealing with whatever the NCAA would do. Postseason ban? No problem McMahon won’t even sniff the tournament. How the frick did this guy even get hired here? Pathetic.

More disappointed at Mulkey with all the super stars she has. She is a good coach but winning the NC so early could be bad. Does she have Orgeron in her?


Good lord

I'd argue culture. Depending on the state certain sports take precedent over others. Basketball is king in Indiana, for example.

Football is just more important culturally to the state of Louisiana than basketball. The Saints are more popular than the Pelicans. LSU Football is way more popular than Basketball.

To basically see that this guy was a Dead man walking year one is a huge black eye on Woody.

Might be one of the worst hires in LSU history.

Not sure that’s it though. I agree basketball is 3rd on the totem pole at LSU but if you just hired a basketball guy who could coach and recruit locally you’d be fine. Baylor, ATM and Houston are full of Louisiana players nobody else recruited. Houston has had 2 total 5* recruits in Sampson’s entire tenure but are 4th in wins nationally over the last few seasons.

It seems that way. He could very well go down as the worst hire in school history if you factor in the contract we gave him. What the actual frick.

McMahon might not be the answer but Will Wade needs to be kicked in the nuts. His laziness has got us to this point!

This hire of McMahon is on the same level as Curley Hallman . The fans have to stay out of the PMAC until this error is rectified.

I was not happy with the hire, but I was unprepared for how bad he was gonna be.

Look Wade did some dumb shite, but at least the guy had the balls and it factor.
Guy just wanted an even playing field so he could also compete and play for championships and our administration rolled on him.
