And that would all be more than paid for by the increased profits basketball would make by having NCAA tournament games and more than 3 conference games on a network other than SEC Network.

Its just clowns that dislike Wade

Also McLoser has never beaten Oats.

How any person could think MM is better than Wade is insane

Wade didn't do shite at LSU; you people are delusional. Nate owns him!! Delusional LSU fans and Nate are the only people clamoring for Wade to return.

If Wade "didn't do shite at LSU," what kind of description can you give the for the moment current coach?

Ah yes. 4 straight tournament teams while battling his own dumbass administration and the media along the way.

Such a terrible coach

If Wade didn’t do shite I would love to know what you think about the McMahon product.

Wade did the following at LSU which is the best we have had in about 30 years with a debate on Brady as the only one even close.

Took last place team with no portal to NIT and won a game - better than anyone season MM has ever had

Won the sec going undefeated on the road, made the sweet 16 - we were screwed in seeding - sec title and more tourny wins than JJ and Trent - sweet 16 matches Brady’s second best year

Then was on pace for back to back tourny before world decided to be gay over Covid

Then made ncaa again, won a game lost to the 1 seed

Team he coached made tourny again

So 5 years- 1 NIT 3 tournament teams (3 more than MM, 2 more than TJ and JJ) 1 other one that everyone agrees he makes but was canceled. So yes Wade did nothing we haven’t seen in 30 years other than lead us to essentially 4 tournaments in a row.

Brady might have an argument for being better because he has the final four but he also had much worse down seasons.

So yes continue to be a dumbass

The current coach needs to be replaced without doubt.

While Wade brought in talent it was frustrating watching his teams with poor fundamentals and being poorly coached. To me, Wade is another Dale Brown that could bring in the talent but was a poor coach. If you get Wade another Tex Winters will be needed.

This is simply not true. Wade knows how to coach. You don't have the record he has and not know what you're doing. He's turned every program around that he's been at. Is he perfect? Well, no. He has his flaws like many coaches do, but he has proven he knows how to turn a program around. People also forget just how young he still is. He started at LSU when he was in his 30's. There is still plenty of time for him to get even better.

And many of the street ball accusations come from people that said McMahon was an x and o expert.

That’s the reality MMs best year even with a transfer portal is on par well technically below since north Texas rinsed his arse.

Exactly and Wade was an extremely young coach here, he still is but now has 3 more seasons on him. So that means high floor, high ceiling with a coach that still hasn’t tapped his full potential yet.

So Wade will only continue to get better and evolve, it’s not like he is static at the level he is at

Don’t underestimate the ego of donors with money to piss away. The amount of shite they get to talk if they can pull Wade away would be well worth it for them.

Wanna take a wild guess who WW’s final win in the PMAC was against… oh yeah it was Nate Oats.
