True.

We’re fricking worse now than we would have been with Coach Will Wade and men’s basketball on probation with a post season ban.

Bring back the General.

LSU wouldn't be under a postseason ban this season and Wade was going to put a Top 10 team on the court. Is LSU better off with MM and not a Top 10 team?

And before people start with the, "Oh, it takes time to rebuild a program!" Texas Tech and Missouri both had massive turnover in their programs, new coaches, lots of transfers, etc.

False

Football would be under a microscope and basketball would be blackballed.

We saw it last year. Let’s just pull the damn bandaid off and start fresh.

This is so dumb. So the GOAT AD got manhandled by the NCAA? They called him to a dark room and showed him a picture of a tombstone in Tiger Stadium, and he crapped his pants and fired Wade?

Why doesn’t Scott get on the phone with his buddy Emmert and make something happen to get Wade back? Work some kind of deal and publicize our punishment of a year or two postseason ban.

We will be bad for the next few years anyway, might as well correct the mistake and get some life back in the program both in the short and long term.

How would a 2 year ban have affected our roster and recruiting? What if the NCAA did some sniffing around the football team too?

of course its true. even if wade lost players because of postseason ban, he would rebuild immediately.

shoulda kept wade and he woulda been hanging banners evnetually.

that said, we must be patient. none of this is mcmahons fault. if he cant bring in good transfers next year and win we can start being angry at him. this year was hopeless from the start.

This is the most important part. MM came in and Noone was left in the building. He had to hit the ground running and it wasn't like the cupboards were bare. There weren't even any cupboards. Don't grade him on this year. Just because you had higher expectations for year one than we're achieving doesn't mean his whole term here is a failure.

Not a microscope.

Football Cheated and Wade is being punished.
Let’s punish basketball because football violated some rules also instead of fording Orgeron and not paying him 17MM to shut his mouth.

this is such a false narrative. Just STOP.
There are no more than 5 players on thr court at any given time. He brought with him 3 players from HIS previous team that won 31 games including an NCAA game just last season. 2 were starters and one played a significant role. He had Miller, who by all accounts was likely starting but at a minimum a 20+ min guy last season u til his injury and Wilkinson who has shot 40+% from 3 all 3 previous seasons and is a dog defender. Then he brought in a top 20 class with 3 6’10” centers 2 being 4* and one 3* and a 6’7” swing man that was a high 4 low 5* freshman have not played or developed. Then there were all of the other transfers that are playing.

There is talent. The fact is I don’t mind losing. It is how poorly this team is playing and his inability to get them competitive is a problem.

While they beat LSU Texas Tech hasn’t won a game in the Big 12. Let’s not act like they are having a great season.

True. McMahon is going to be a 3 or 4 year self imposed ban on NCAA tournament play. Then he will be replaced hopefully.

Are we going to do this after every game? Wade is gone and never coming back. Get his cock out your mouth. MM might not be the answer but we 100% know WW isn’t.

When bringing up Wade gets people to react, it is worth doing it! I recall the time when we were in the postseason every year under Wade.

Woodward gave us his own version of the postseason ban!

This is troubling. No doubt.
