This is factually incorrect. There was no tournament in 2020. If you want to say he would have made it if there had been one, that’s fine and I would agree.
Come on man, you know who you’re talking to.

Thanks Mrs. McBland, your mediocrity attitude I’m sure is greatly appreciated in your household. Better yet the disastrous season We had last year has lowered expectations of our fanbase into believing that the job so far 24 has exceeded their high standards of a winning record or should I even mention “playoffs”. Now the standards has become “playing tough” “never give up” and my favorite “they have grit”. Well basketball is one of my favorite sports especially March Madness, but I have resigned my hopes of ever seeing LSU playing in the near future.
Though I’m still comforted by the fact that your Great Family still has 6yrs and 24million$ to achieve this goal. Your legion of fans have assured me that we are improving every second except for the occasional 30pt blowouts to really Good teams(make that 22pts don’t want to upset the Moral Victory Crowd) so I’ll be patient. I will only say you are a Fine Man but refrain from saying your a Fine Coach until maybe you prove that by actually winning, pardon my frankness I thought that’s why you were hired TO WIN basketball games except when we have to play really Good Teams(those dam schedule makers). I will close by saying keep trying really hard and keep that grit thing up, I have no doubt we will make the tournament in your 8 years at LSU.

Sincerely
The Legion of the McGobblers

Last season was always going to be disastrous regardless of who we hired

Obviously the school has not prioritized MBB. We could certainly do better and Wade did show the potential but he’s still it irreplaceable


And that’s why we were fortunate to have Will Wade, a young, energetic coach on his way up. LSU basketball is not in the same stratosphere as LSU football and baseball when it comes to hiring coaches. LSU basketball can’t pull coaches on top of their game. We have to hope and hit with a hidden talent. That’s very low percentage.

Mcmen have no excuses. Even Trent Johnson was winning more with absolutely zero talent on his teams. His last season that got him fired he was 18-15 and 7-9 in SEC play but now we’re making excuses for a guy who’s SEC win % is 19% when he’s got 5 top 100 players, two 5* kids and a bunch of productive veterans? This is peak insanity even for the Rant.

No, LSU did NOT make 4 NCAA tournaments because one wasn't even held. You are the one who needs to retake Math 101, sit in the front of the class, and not fall asleep this time. And once again, he wasn't even at the 2022 tourney because his arse had been suspended.

No, the current #1 theory about Wade by the cultists is he was the 2nd coming of John Wooden! You cult followers need to find the McNeese sports forum or board and spread your sheep poop over there!

There should be no patience. In today of NIL and transfer all coaches should be on one year contracts. That way you can easily fire coaches and coaches can also pimp themselves out to the highest


Great concept...just let us know who is the first coach to agree to a 1 year contract.

Hey prick, I remember you from before. What drizztiger said was "The current number one theory on TD is that he’s equal to child rapists" I guess you don't call that a lie, huh, you pathetic POS! Oh, and BTW, I'm not an alter, so you just lied!

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


Um, don't we have like a whole month's worth of games left to add to the 4 wins?

IF they go forth and lose the next four games, which the odds overwhelmingly agree will happen, I won't be too disappointed...if, the team wins its last five, which seems possible.

Last 5 games:

Miss St-- 50% LSU likely to win, per ESPN
Georgia-- 65% LSU
@ Vandy-- 80% LSU
@ Arky-- 48% LSU
Missouri-- 85% LSU

I can't wait for this team to play this schedule. There should be success in these games, if Cook returns in good form

lol. I’m still pissed we bent the knee and fired Wade.

McMahon didn’t have a better situation than basically almost every other coach ever. He had zero starting players. The only coaches who have had it worse are schools who are trying to start a basketball program.

People here love to ignore this but it’s basically where McMahon started. First you find enough players to field a team and then you progress from there. Our fans are guilty of the “I want what I want and I want it now” attitude.

To be quite impartial, Tennessee is a good basketball team, who's well coached. They along with Auburn should beat not only LSU, but all the other SEC teams about 9 out of 10 times on their own home court.

In what basketball world do you count walk-ons who never play as part of a team?

Yes Wade just had to recruit following the worst season in years with a shite roster and no portal

For the record, Wade brought in Bigby-Williams year one as a transfer. And he inherited mays, Sampson, reath, Epps, and sims. The biggest thing he did year 1 was get waters, which was mostly luck because I believe he was committed to Georgetown who fired their HC.
