Media picked us to finish, what, 11th in the SEC?

You might want to have saved that argument. Since they started 3-1 and now 4-5, and they will likely lose at least 4 of the next 5, I predict LSU will finish 10th or 11th.

While I hate to bring politics into a basketball discussion



McMahon’s last year before LSU was 31-3? There was a cloud over our program when he arrived. This year is much, much better than last year, and he has a good class coming in.

Literally no one is “satisfied” with aiming for .500 in league play, but damn let the guy work!

Either we will continue the trend of improvement… or stagnanation next season gets him fired.

The McMahon hate has more to do with Wade than the defenses of McMahon, which are really just reactive. I liked Wade.

Some Wade supporters get a bad rap because they sound like they just started watching basketball & never heard of John Brady.

Even if you disagree on McMahon’s trajectory, it would be an awful look to fire a guy who stepped into the scenario he did after two years — just not gonna happen.

This is such a joke. This board feasts off of being idiots. There’s no reason LSU should be this awful with the portal.

Or maybe it is ok to not be an over-reactionary bitch and support the guy who is in year fricking 2 of a rebuild? Jesus. If this was year 4, then fine.

Maybe if you knew what you were watching you’d understand that we could wait until year 7 and he’s still not going to turn us into a winning program.

I think that’s putting it lightly tbh. Imagine McMahon builds something here. Imagine the improvement from this year to next is equivalent to the improvement from last year to this year.

I’m trying to imagine how these posters would cope. They may claim to want to see LSU succeed, but idk… feels like they just wanna be right.

It isn't even that. They see that McMahon is building something, so their attacks are intensifying and getting more desperate.

They are jumping over a road loss to one of the country's top rated teams. They are claiming that half the roster was still here after Wade. They are forgetting they championed Missouri last year and are jumping on any team they can. Flat out lies and exaggerations.

Once McMahon has this team back in the tournament they know that all hope is lost.

The McMahon family is all CLASS
Ran into them after the North Texas game and man do they love LSU. I’m a McMahon critic, but had some great conversations with them and now I want to see what he does with that class coming in next year. Just a great group of people and McMahon wants nothing more than to turn us into a contender and he hears the criticism loud and clear. Told his mom we can be the biggest assholes and it wasn’t really McMahon, it was more the cards we were dealt. Anyway, in short for all of us keyboard warriors, meeting and actually talking to a human involved is a game changer and just an outstanding group of people.

This is a flat out lie. Brian Kelly had one of the most talented teams his first year. I think the overall composite team talent naming for LSU in football was #6 in the country, per 247sports.

In today's day and age of college athletics, especially with how much more turnover there is in basketball compared to football or baseball, how are we still talking about giving a guy 4 years in a rebuild?

The acceptance of going from 2 wins for 4 wins is laughable.

That’s absolutely garbage that you think McMahon inherited a worse situation than Mulkey

Same for Brian Kelly. Kelly actually walked into a program with standards lmao


What’s so laughable? McMahon brought his entire starting five from a round of 32 team, top 30 class and contributors and we were historically bad.


- I guess? Dude should have lsu in the NIT easily with the new rules

One of the most talented lsu teams lmao you typed that with a straight face?

Half of you are so hopeless lmao you’ll defend this idiot to the grave and not be patient with mulkey and Kelly. No serious human being thinks McMahon is doing a great job.

It's called being realistic. And anyone who even thinks anything negative about Kelly or Mulkey (or Johnson) is an idiot, like you.

Do you really think your temper tantrum in thread after thread about McMahon is going to change anything? He's getting a third year. The team has improved this year, clearly not to your satisfaction, but the program is moving in the right direction. If he doesn't
move the program forward in year three, he'll be canned. But he's getting one more year. Do your blood pressure a favor and distract yourself for a while and, for heaven's sakes, quit making 10 threads saying the same thing over and over.
