Well if everyone else is doing it then it’s not an advantage.
So which is it?

Didn't say he couldn't be a good coach. He is and he ain't coming here so it doesn't matter.

And his money he was throwing around wasn’t even enough that he could beat out schools like FSU bingo. Now with legalized nil(pay to play, Lets call it what it is)money will be even bigger and harder for lsu basketball to rise up. He aint coming because of this.

Because McMahon does not fundraise. He doesn't like to do it. When is the last time you've seen footage of McMahon speaking at any time of business leaders function? You haven't. Compare that with Mulkey, Johnson, and especially Kiffin.
And the simple truth is - for LSU in particular LSU basketball - the head coach has to.
It is not coincidence that the two most successful basketball coaches in my lifetime excelled at this. IMHO it's a must. I'll repeat - there are schools where a basketball coach can just coach - where a generations old system is in place where the funding is automatic. That is NOT the case for LSU basketball.

What is it about your brain (or lack thereof) that makes you say things that I didn't say. Youre arguing against yourself, even after copying what I actually said?
Make your point, just use reality ffs.
Wade committed offenses against the rules at the time. He did it to try and gain whatever advantage he could. He was caught on a wiretap, clear as day.
It does not matter what other schools did, and to what degree. Will Wade cheated. Now payers are openly negotiated and paid.
Personally, I think hes a solid coach, but nothing great. Everyone slobbering over his success at McNeese should notice that they are a tournament team this year, without him there and losing a couple starters . So wouldn't that make that coach now a better coach? Let's go steal him! Lol.....no

Ok so is your assertion that it was just LSU and FSU or do you agree with the reality that it was a largely systemic issue?

It absolutely matters to the point of the thread and that you argued in favor for.
If the only reason that will Wade was effective was that he was paying players then the only way that’s an advantage is if he was the only one doing it. If it was largely systemic then the difference between now with NIL and then with dropping bags is minimal.

No no no and no
He was cheating. It gave him a better team which usually directly impacts winning more games.
I dont give a frick either way
Youre so dumb it hurts others.
So I'll helpyou like your 5...which is the iq level youre at.
If everyone was cheating, which isn't true at all. But one team gets Shaq to go play there, you dont think that raises their advantage over other teams?
Thats just a tiny sample of how wrong you are. On other notes, fast forward to today. Everyone can offer NIL$$. But you say it gives them no advantage, because its systemic? So why do it
Boils down to this...it all, cheating, NIL, etc gives you more talent and gives you an advantage you otherwise wouldn't have as a team.
Will Wade cheated and got caught. He did it to win more games, period. Live with it

If everyone is cheating then it’s leveling the playing field.

The team in your scenario that got Shaq to play for them either correctly valued him enough to offer WAY more or offered him more in quality of development and quality of life to choose.
Hence where being a good coach and recruiter still matters.
If everyone is dropping bags on players either you have to have bigger pockets or better decisions.
Wade here the first time didn’t have big enough pockets to consistently beat Kentucky or Duke or apparently even Florida State for every player.
What he did do is identify guys with big talent, level the playing field as much as possible as far as bags, and then make smart decisions on players to target.
His biggest recruit was Naz Reid who I am sure had plenty of money to make elsewhere but his girlfriend was at LSU.
Emmitt Williams had trouble with the law and Wade stuck with him.
Waters was undersized.
Tari Eason was good evaluation and not a highly sought after transfer.
To think that he’s instantly going to suck because everyone is paying players now when essentially everyone already was is asinine

Facts don’t matter in current times. Posters like that idiot just regurgitate shite and never try to learn anything. Stupid people continuing to be stupid.

Oh I know.
I expounded on how essentially all of his major recruits were products of other reasons besides money anyways.

If you truly don't believe every big time school has been cheating for DECADES in regard to the recruitment of football and men's basketball players, YOU are the one with the single digit IQ.
