You’re thinking of the wrong 2019 team.

People say they know the metrics, but every year there are teams that were supposed to be solidly in, but end up left out. All I said was that they might not make it and that I still think they will anyway. Either way, the last month has not been a good look for NC State basketball.

From the lens of NC State fans (and they could very well be delusional), Wade hasn’t done anything different in his first year as the previous hires

I truly hope the last paragraph you posted above is truly how the NC state fans feel about Wade. The LSU fan base will welcome him back with open arms.

I would love to borrow Wonder Woman's rope so I could put it around you and ask you a handful of in depth questions to REALLY get to the root of your hatred of basketball, and your severe case of WDS. Anyway, since you're an ignorant frick (or you just play one on the rant), I can tell you that I've talked to enough people over the years (who would have an INTIMATE knowledge) that I've learned that 99% of football and men's basketball elite recruits have been paid HANDSOMELY under the table for decades.


Well said. Definitely a case of malignant WDS hiding behind Muh cheating. As you and many others have stated, if you don’t think college athletes in football and basketball haven’t been paid for the last several decades, you’re fooling yourself.

Who would melt? I stuck with McMahon longer than most (up to this season)… this would be hilarious and awesome by everyone’s standards.

I keep hearing “I will wade for you” to the tune of Prince’s “I would die for you”.

NC State won't miss the tournament. If they lose to Duke they'll still be 19-11 overall and 10-7 ACC. Their Kenpom and NET rankings are both ~ 30. Joe Lunardi had them as a LOCK on his latest bracketology. And if NC State wins its final reg season home game vs Stanford, a so-so team, that will solidify their LOCK status.

Lee Mallet and Will Wade are good friends. Mallet head of Board of Supervisors, Mallet big donor, Mallet lives in Lake Charles, Mallet helped get Wade to McNeese, Mallet & Wade became better friends in his hometown, Mallet/Rouse/Wade huge friends connections, Mallet/Rouse in contact with Wade often, LSU about to fire McCantwin?, Mallet rich with lots of pull in right position, Rouse President of LSU, Mallet/Rouse KNOW a GUY who’s also a friend.
Verge knows this, we all know this, let’s make THIS happen!

100%. I remember when Wade was here and we'd get these mid season panicky posts: "we're not making the tournament!!!!" after a loss.

Wade has this figured out. He's got a guy on the west coast who projects for him who will be good out of conference wins, but are yet winnable, especially by a good coach like Wade.

They're still top 30 NET after the bad loss yesterday, and have ELEVEN quad 1/2 wins.

They could lose the last 3 and would still sneak in.

Per Wade, we play in an arena not a gym.

Why have any rules at all? Hell, let’s just pay the refs and, when caught, just shrug our shoulders and pretend that “everybody is doing it.” Maybe we can have the players openly using PED’s and look the other way.

No sane employer would accept back an employee who pulled the nonsense that WW engaged in.

That’s the funny thing, we knew he wasn’t coming for free and Dawkins’ alleged pay sheet had both Jarrell Martin and Tim Quarterman on it with exact amounts that were paid to them but you’ll never see a mcmen or Wade hater acknowledge it.
