Verge gets it, and is on board with Wade doing whatever it takes for LSU to win. frick the haters.
quote:

Some people complain about Will Wade and the basketball players he signed. Well, if the rule is there and there are no rules against it, yeah, go for it. I want to win, LSU wants to win, and we're going to be competitive here. And I'm not going to give my team a competitive disadvantage to other people in the country.

Verge is the hero we need but don’t deserve!

Here the thing Verge seems to get -

Whether or not people outside of LSU like you is irrelevant. We don't care about national opinions at all.

Win or don't win

That's it

I dont follow much basketball recruiting besides LSU but just got a ESPN notification minutes ago that Ole Miss is signing 2 Australian pro players. Why the outrage when we do it but everyone else is doing the same stuff?

Woody bent the knee to the NCAA and the liberal national sports journalists so this is refreshing to hear

This is verge basically saying burn the fricking thing down. If the rules allow it and no one else acted on it first and even it appears “unethical” I don’t give a frick and neither should you. Fix the system or we are going to frick it and win.

Verge looks like he could still knock some mofos out.

Man, I miss those overpadded 80s defensive players.

Verge has been a pleasant surprise.

People throw out that "Coach O loves LSU! Bleeds purple and gold!" horseshite, but Verge actually does.

Love this from Verge. Everyone else is exploiting the exact same loopholes, so why should we play nice and put ourselves at a disadvantage? Just win, period

What Verge left out is an awful lot of coaches are recruiting the same guys and some teams like Nebraska, Purdue, Illinois, Michigan and others all signed players last year just like the one's WW has signed and you heard nary a peep.

But because it's Will Wade he gets castigated by the same folks who did the same thing last time around. It needs to be called out. Mascona ain't always my bag but he did a very good job of pointing out the hypocrisy and double standard a few weeks back.

I was skeptical of Verge, but I like that he's standing tall on this.

I just hope we have a little patience for his new hires.

And the journalist used that against him. Write your hit pieces on LSU, but when Verge and LSU doesn’t care, it won’t be effective and they might turn their focus to other programs.
