Anyone could have hired Will Wade.

He accepted the lowly offer from McNese St.

And then allowed them to suspend him 5 games out the gate.

If that doesn’t tell you about the national perception of Wade, you are blind

Maybe the fan base wanted the LSU AD to do what other basketball schools around the country have done, just ignore the NCAA. They have no teeth.

Maybe the majority of the fan base wants people like you to move the frick on. Starting multiple threads like this every day isn’t going to bring Will Wade back. Get. Over. It.

Guys, it’s OK to say that Scott did great with Brian and Jay and Kim while also admitting he majorly fricked up the Will situation. He was either scared and bent the knee or he didn’t like will and wanted his guy. In either case he clearly fricked up.

If Wade was here this year we’d be dancing.

Scott fricked up. It sucks. He did the wrong thing. No one came be perfect.

Again, apples to oranges. If Will Wade had Self’s record, then he would have been worth keeping.

You don’t know that. Will Wade payed a player out of his wife’s bank account, which does not qualify as an NIL deal. Quit being an idiot.

Its because the NCAA is dragging their feet on whatever “punishment” they will deal out.

Once nothing comes of it, he will be at a major program within 2 years. Nobody wanted to risk the incredibly small chance he gets a show cause.

Pitino had numerous final fours, and two national championships. Wade had one sweet 16 birth.

Everybody here would rather cope than say Scott fricked up. Come back when nothing happens to Will and tell me you’d rather have Matt in 2022-2023 instead of Will.

These arguments make no sense. He wasn’t, as a young and rising coach, as good as older legendary coaches so I’d rather my team be a steaming pile of dogshit that is last place in the SEC than be in the tournament with a chance.

His last 3 guys* currently have a #1 baseball team, 3 seed in the women's tourney, and was able to pull off a 10 win football season starting off with less than 40 scholarship players.

The Wade cult has blinders on to the mess he got the program into.

No, I want you guys to stop white knighting for him. He fricked up. Just say it.

It’s not coping, it’s having some perspective.

I loved Will Wade and wish he was still here. But if you’re a leader and your program is just engulfed in shitty press and scrutiny, I get making a move. I wouldn’t have, but I understand. Wade is a good coach, but he’s not worth the shitshow.
