Oh you think Wade was the only D1 coach paying players. Thats cute.

Do you believe in unicorns, the tooth fairy and socialism too.

Still waiting on your response…who’s this great coach we’re going to hire instead of Wade. Who’s the coach with a better resume that would come to LSU.

Maybe Chris Beard since he’s made a Final Four. Oh wait, he’s making $6MM a year with a $4.5MM buyout.

If you believe the majority of other coaches weren’t doing the same thing , then there is no point in talking about this

If you genuinely believe that, you’re an absolute moron. Every single D1 program and certainly every SEC program was paying players between 2017-22.

The players played their azz off for Mac, that can't be denied. Impressed with that part. 

Is that why we got destroyed at home by pathetic teams like SC, OU and State?

Hahaha!!!!!

He’s set to make $5.5 this year and $6 next year. His son is already named his successor in his current contract and he’s coming off a national championship appearance. You think he’s coming to BR where we are crying about an $8MM buyout.

This tells me all I need to know about your IQ.

Why stop there, let’s make a run at Mark Few or Coach K or Roy Williams. Those are all realistic.

Stop funding basketball
I think this is the majority opinion


Do you really think the majority of this board wants the second greatest college sport to fail ?

An NBA assistant coach? You think that’s a better hire than Wade?

Based on what?

Between 81 and OP, this may be the dumbest thread I’ve read today. And that’s saying something, because there have been some doozies. The whole idiot brigade had been out in full force after today’s loss, and, of course, regurgitating the same incorrect information and trying to pass it off as fact.

Each one of those delusional simpletons deserve their own Twilight Zone episode and straight jacket.

No, just more than you. Of course that’s a pretty low bar. Guess you expended all your basketball coaching knowledge with throwing Sampson’s name out there, so you’ve decided insults and sarcasm instead. At least my sarcasm included actual information.

The post I replied to and quoted said "Don’t waste anymore money on basketball" not "stop funding basketball".

"Anymore"

I took that as increasing levels of funding over their current percentage, and I do believe that is indeed the majority opinion. The majority would prefer sending any extra funds to football, baseball, WBB, gymnastice or whatever their own favorite sport is rather than MBB.

MBB fans are very vocal, but are outnumbered by other Tiger fans in general that are apathetic to MBB unless they are already a winner, they don't seem to want to actually put resources into making them a winner.

ETA The Tiger fanbase is much more than "this board". Perhaps some should get out of the echo chamber every now and then.
