I will also express my displeasure at Woody for feeding the media a heaping of bullshite after the OU win to find a hole to escape from and basically flip off fans while exiting.


I'm of the opinion that the decision was already made before the Oklahoma game. I think the purpose of the announcement was to make it known that basketball will be getting more NIL money. My hope is that was a signal to potential future coaches. I believe LSU has to show itself serious about basketball in order to attract top coaches or even serious up-and-comers. I am not convinced McMahon can be effective enough even with better talent.

Oh it definitely was decided before Oklahoma. The only question was when/how they were going to let it known he’d back.

I don’t doubt there was never a real decision. But the leaking to media after a win was done purposely to placate the easily manipulated fans. It makes zero sense that in year three of what has been a horrible regime, we’ve found the money to support the program and now is the time. I’m not buying it at all.

I get what you’re saying and I don’t disagree with the logic but keeping McMahon is a signal to everyone that you aren’t serious

On the flip side, it does tell any future candidates that you can suck for years and we won’t run you off.

Trying to find silver linings

The entire NIL story is 100% BS. We just lost the best in state prospect in years who’s going to be a freshman next season but we’re supposed to believe they’re committed now. Cmon, that was a sucker story.

I think the real reason to give McSuck another year is to make sure Wade goes to another school so he doesn’t have to “pass over” him on the next coaching search

Keeping CoachMc and announcing it during the window prior to the season ending blowouts we’re going to suffer, while also floating nonsense that AU and Bama are rolling with $20mil in MBB NIL is just too much for me. Lol.
