...which wouldn't be all that scary but for the worry that LSU's administration is going to end up firing Wade AFTER all the quality potential replacements are picked over.

Rumor has it A&M is going to throw the bank at Buzz Williams.

IF we have to fire Wade we wont be in the market for a good coach anyways more than likely.

We're gonna have Ed 0 2.0 here. Ton of SEC schools make home run hires and we hire some goon from within.

Deal with it. Tony Benford will be your coach for the foreseeable future.

That's what they said about Ed Oregon.

This administrations best bet would be to let the April 22nd trial play out before deciding Wade’s fate. They already made the mistake of suspending him. Don’t double down until we know the facts, which won’t be until after the trial is complete. You don’t want to make another mistake by prematurely firing him and then finding out he didn’t commit any violations.

I have to say if anything Benford has positioned Heiar to get a look if we promote from within.

IF Wade gets fired and a new coach is hired from within it will be Heiar, he's been the main scout the entire time he has been here and is just as responsible if not more for this team's success in the postseason than Benford.

Greg Haeir should be the guy if Wade is gone

Seems like a good hire, and I like him, but he's never been at a major college and was coaching high school 5 years ago.

Could be a great hire, but far from a slam dunk.

Supposedly Heier doesn't want to be a head coach.

He's certainly the best coach on the staff though.

EDIT: Best among the assistants, in case somebody wants to throw Wade in there.
