re: What's the latest on Clark, Niang, Levy, and Dessert?

The fact that Levy hasn't been cleared seems to give credibility to this. There is no reason he shouldn't be cleared other than it just hasn't been processed yet.

I'm never one to buy into baseless conspiracy theories.

But it is very clear the SEC has made LSU, specifically Kiffin and Wade, its target to use as the example to show the rest of the SEC teams/coaches, and the rest of the country how much "might" the SEC Commissioner has in being the "savior" of college sports. This, despite the fact numerous other programs throughout the nation and SEC have done the same things with their rosters. So I would not be surprised at all to learn there is some behind closed doors instructions to delay, or put LSU's players at the back of the line simply for optics

There is a reason Dessert and Niang were on the roster for UCF game but not Levy.

Alt, you're wasting your breath with that imbecile.

He's either being intentionally obtuse, or has ZERO ability to read between the lines in regard to what's actually going on.

Your explanation on the decision/circumstances to bring McMahon back for a 4th year is damned close to unimpeachable.

There are still simpletons on the rant that believe 2 and 2 equals 5.

please try to be civil.

Please try not to post like a retard, and you won't have to deal with it.

I truly hope for.your sake this is all an act. If it isn't, I don't know how you successfully navigate your way through life.

the made up bit is your theory that the university was leaking false stories about the funding of McMahon's team. the proof you have offerered is that you put it in quotes.

---

As I've said many times, the proof was circumstantial. You aren't going to get Woodward or Tate to give a sworn deposition to get the smoking gun you want. But many, many court cases are proved on circumstances leading to the obvious conclusion. Just like the circumstances last year for months told anyone who wasn't obtuse that Wade was coming back to LSU. Yet, MANY refused to use a small bit of critical thinking to see that inevitable conclusion coming a mile away: (President and AD who fired him and refused to rehire him, gone; McNeese president named LSU president; Big supporter and donor Wade in LC named LSU BOS chair; total silence about McMahon after yet another miserable season; reports that McNeese AD was going to be hired by LSU). Those dominos were steadily falling. Yet, we had people who were either too dumb to recognize them, or just refused to do so because they desperately wanted to believe a different reality.

So yet again, here is your evidence

1. NIL funding is committed in the spring/early summer. If a team hasn't spend any money, that would be known well before the season for anyone willing to look. Yet, the implied argument that LSU spent little money on its roster didn't arise until February, at a time LSU was near last place en route to another shitty season. The report that came out at the time was LSU was going to retain MM and increase the NIL expenditure...implying that what it did that season wasn't enough and the cause for he losing

2. The story was broken by a guy who covers football recruiting. That's an odd person to get the scoop. But he also was married to a member of the athletic dept.

3. It's not speculation that there was a push for LSU to hire Wade at the end of the 25 season. A certain person who has an office in the State Capitol demanded LSU hire Wade. Those who had the power to do so refused. That's why a few months later both were out. The Governor holds grudges and keeps score. If you are against him, he gets you out of the way. Tate and Woodward did not want to deal with the Wade problem. So no matter how bad MM sucked, they were not going to make the LSU job open at the same time Wade was in Louisiana. It wasn't going to happen. But they were also smart enough to know that MM had the basketball program at rock bottom and coming out and saying "we are keeping him simply because we think he's doing a good job" wasn't going to instill any hope in the dwindling customer base. They had to give the fans some reason to think things would be different and that all of the losing wasn't because of the HC they were inexplicably about to keep for a 4th year. To their credit, it worked! We had and STILL have dumbasses who think the miserable last 4 years of LSU basketball occurred for any and every reason except MM was just a bad coach.

could be diabate over ruzic or niang

If/when Niang becomes eligible, he isn't coming off the bench. Coaching staff loves him, and thinks he can be the best defender in the SEC this season.
