I'm not sure if I'm more shocked about a positive article about Wade or that the author, Toyloy Brown III, is the third person in his family named Toyloy.

Thanks for posting. Our general is clearly cut from his own unique cloth and will work his tail off to get the job done.

The writer is the LSU basketball beat reporter for the Advocate. I think he at least knows enough about his reading audience to know that bashing Wade isn't going to help his career.

I am pleasantly surprised it was positive. The writer even commented on what a good person Wade is to people that are not in a position to advance his career.

Hamilton made a mistake early on after agreeing to join Wade’s staff. He said he can’t wait to win as they did before.

Wade corrected him.

" 'No, that wasn't enough, Vern. We gotta win more,' " Hamilton recalled Wade saying. “That told me right there his expectation for me as an assistant, his expectation for himself was higher.

“I think coach is going to win a national championship one day. I'm pretty confident in that.”

Wade spent extra minutes chatting with gas station cashiers instead of hustling back to the car to attack the recruiting trail with Nickelberry. “Will Wade treats people that can't help him better than anybody I've ever been around with his stature,” said LSU senior deputy athletic director Heath Schroyer,

That's a powerful positive statement. You can't fake that type of character trait.

I know a guy named Dougal. It’s an old family name that the first born gets and it goes back to the 15th century.
