He would have had one of the most talented rosters in the country. Good chance to go to the final Four.

This is just incorrect.

Will Wade haunts you in your dreams. I’m excited about the first 2 guys Matt’s brought in.

Let it go. It's time to move on. Maybe we need a special place for all of you crybabies to post.

How do you know? He was paying good money, you think he wouldn't spring for tickets?

The Wade fanboys are the Wade haters. Nobody’s more obsessed with Will Wade than posters who bash him. These are miserable people looking for an outlet to place their vitriol. While most fans have moved on and care about LSU having success these people need Wade threads like a crackhead needs his fix.

Yet he continued to underachieve with that talent. Move on, everyone else is.

I’m the one who told the guy to let it go a-hole. Don’t come at me.

I can understand the hate. Wade did screw over LSU after all. His name will be mud around here for a while.

What I don't understand are the fans who jump in threads to defend him. He deserves every ill word he gets.

No he didn't. He had one year with a very talented roster and he won the conference.

He was hampered the rest of his time here.

Well, people continue to post extremely dumb shite about Wade, totally unprompted. It seems like they haven't moved on.

You’re telling me with the players that would’ve stayed, a healthy Adam Miller, the class that we had coming in and the players we would’ve likely picked up in the portal, there’s just no way you can picture in your head that Wade couldn’t have brought us to the Final Four? boy.
shite on Wade to your hearts delight, he had his shortcomings. He was an absolute idiot when it came to properly cheating. THAT’S how you get to the Final Four. Or were you under the assumption UNC, Duke, Kansas and Villanova were squeaky clean programs?

He made LSU basketball fun again and did things at LSU that hadn't been done in 30 years. Yeah it sucks that he got sloppy, but let's not pretend that it wasn't fun while it lasted.

A lot of fans are pissed because of the hypocrisy in college basketball but A. No amount of complaining will change that and B. No just because everyone else does it doesn’t mean Wade should’ve been retained. If landing elite recruits and taking the risks to get them brings this kind of trouble it’s a hard pass for me because you don’t need em to win. There are plenty of examples of good teams who win in March that don’t have elite prospects on the roster. Give me a good 3-4 year college basketball player over a prospect any day.

“Final Four”. …… our fan base is so delusional! All those stars and no Heaven. Dude was a great recruiter but a horrible X and O’s guy. He was so dumb, he told on himself….

Does this mean you will no longer attend the fan club meetings?

Except the opposite of what you posted is the actual truth. The projections and finishes have been posted here several times and debunked the statement you’re making.

Exactly. The guy cared so much about the program he was literally paying players out of his own pocket.

He had no help here in the beginning. That clearly changed after the Naz Reid class, that's why there was nothing in any report after that class.

The guy rebuilt what the two previous coaches managed to tear down. Just had to do it on his own to start and got too sloppy.

The only reason it lasted as long as it did is because his case got tied up in the FBI investigation. Without that he is busted in year 2 and run out of town by 2020.
