Looks like we can field a team now with 5 eligible players!

Wade and LSU waiting for the NCAA where have I seen that before. I despise having to have any dependence on those fricks

Is he waiting on the NCAA though? We know their opinion on the matter. They ruled those players ineligible.

Are there any regular American's on this team? I can't pronounce half of those names.

Oh look its the weekly Will Wade doesn't have a roster thread that will go 10 pages with 8 of them filled with an argument between the ChatGPT moron and Madking.

It may work out but we're less than two weeks from school starting and since this is still a college team they will need to be enrolled. It's mid-august. He may pull a rabbit out of a hat and we may play all of those guys. But you have to also at least realize that this could be a thin team that has to be put together last minute that really struggles in WWs first year. Could literally go either way at this point. Silence about the roster 2 months ago was defendable. You're lying to yourself if you don't admit it's at least a concern at this point

As far as I know, that was only Luis has been ruled ineligible.

Most recent articles seem to indicate that Saliou Niang and Michael Ruzic are expected to be granted eligibility.

Brice Dessert is more questionable, as is Marcio Santos, though Santos seems more likely to have a favorable outcome.

At least that's my understanding. I'm actually more concerned about Skyy Clark since the NCAA is appealing the injunction in the Court of Appeals.

Nothing has been ruled on Luis, but I think we know what the ruling will be. Yam Madar was the only commit to officially be ruled ineligible so far.


With that said, it’s incredibly frustrating as an LSU fan sitting in the dark on all this just waiting on something. I’ll give Wade a break on swinging for the fences in year one, but there has to be a better approach next offseason if this ends up being a disaster.

Why do those guys have to be granted eligibility if they aren’t currently ineligible? That’s a serious question as I haven’t been keeping up.

There is apparently a process for all foreign players, and they have to meet certain criteria to be considered eligible. If they have played in a foreign pro or club league, additional criteria apply based on what they were paid.

Rest easy. The disaster was sent packing five months ago thankfully. Imagine heading into another year of that farce.

Exactly. This is a one time deal and there’s a reason Pear has taken this approach.

Annoying seeing the room temp iq fans and Pear skeptics on X who really think we only have five players. It’ll be satisfying switching from Lane ruining lives to our sweet juicy Prince

It’s going to be so funny when Wade shuts up the media talking heads and wins this year.
