Keeping Mainieri from Texas was also smart.



we’re really reaching for things to credit him with if this is an accomplishment. “Hey he gave his NC baseball coach a raise and extension to prevent him from leaving”

We’ll see what happens when Texas A&M shows up at the end of the season with a Brinks truck loaded with cash for Will Wade. If not them someone else will. He is going to be a hot commodity.

Wonder what people will think once they realize Wade used LSU as a stepping stone to a real basketball program?

Glad we had him in the Joe Alleva era when it was way more likely he'd hire a random shitcoach because "he wanted to be here".

Well...wade kind of pursued the job the summer before and the Nunez connection



No use crying over spilled milk, but I wonder what Wade could have done last season with Blakeney and the rest of that roster.

Would have been interesting to see

The AD and some staff went to last years Battle for Atlantis Tournament. They all saw Will Wade coach VCU there. He lost to #20 Baylor on opening night, after leading the majority of the game. (Baylor went on to smoke Louisville and Michigan to win the tourney.) VCU won the remaining games they played, including a convincing win over LSU. That tourney performance by Wade, his court presence, and Media press conference Q&A's after games left a long-lasting impression.

Wish Alleva could hire a young fb coach like Wade in 2016 instead of a dumpstered hire of O. Can Wade coach fb too?

Yes. I think Coach O should hire him as Offensive Coordinator. Wade could brush up on football and do that gig on his off season. Wade has the juice.
