re: Josh Pate: I can’t tell you how the LSU search is going because it’s not going…

This leads me to believe what Pate is saying...which sucks, but it's true.
I fully believe he is true.
No doubt LSU reached out to Nick Saban and Kiffin and both probably said no.
Problem is they have no fricking clue what to do next.
Afraid this will be a Brian Kelly 2.0 situation. They struck out on Riley and Fisher last cycle and overpaid for BK.
Instead of swallowing their pride and offering Jon Sumrall or someone of the like the job, they will probably go and overpay for a proven commodity.
Thinking someone like Manny Diaz

Post play on this years basketball team is 10 fold better than last year
Posted by WaydownSouth on 11/10/25 at 9:17 pm
After Reed went down last year, LSU only had 2 games out of 23 in which more than one post player scored in double figures. Florida Gulf Coast and Alabama
So far we have had 4 bigs in the first 2 games score in double figures. They are attacking the basket more and taking higher percentage shots. The threes that are being taken are better looks.
18/45 from 3 through 2 games vs 17/54 through 2 last year.
This team should finish much better than 15th. Probably won't win the league, but all home SEC games outside of maybe Kentucky and Alabama are winnable. And who knows, if we get a 2019 Tennessee crowd in the PMAC, maybe they knock off one of them.

If he gets another Job, LSU only owes the difference in salary from what he was getting here.
If he is planning on coaching again, he would be wise to negotiate a one time lump sum of 25-30 million.
Example. Lets say he goes to UCLA for 8 mill/year 5 year deal. He would only get 2 mill/yr from LSU. So in theory he would get 10ish mill from LSU.
If he negotiated the one time up front lump sum of 25 million, then he would get 25 mill + 8 mill/yr new job.
Over 5 years the difference in that scenario would be 65 million to 50 million.
If he doesn't want to coach again, then he should not settle

They will cover the spread for the 1st 6-7 games.

Oh you mean the LSU team that got upset in the first round by an 11 Seed Iowa State? A less athletic team? Good point.
Iowa St plays a style of play that neuters athleticism. Similar to Wisconsin and what they did to the 38-0 Kentucky team

The most exciting thing about this season is not having to watch Derek Fountains goofy uncoordinated arse anymore
The bigs are a massive upgrade

It's one fricking game man. I can go back and say how in McMahon's first year we beat a top 10 team at home to start SEC play (Arkansas)... we all know how that season went from there. It's one game, no one should be making conclusions on either side of the spectrum. We cannot foresee that we will make the tournament or say that we will go 2-16 in conference again. There's no point in making these assertions after 30 minutes of basketball.
Yep.
They should have beat Kansas State (who went to final 4) and beat Arkansas who went to Elite 8. Started 12-1 and still ended up 2-16 in SEC play.
I will say this team appears to have more offensive firepower and more athleticism if they remain healthy. I will be cautiously optimistic

They do appear to be better than last year. More offensive fire power, but have to walk egg shells around McMahon.
Unfortunately we won't find out very much about this team in non conference play

can someone answer me why everyone thinks Wade would come back to LSU from NC State? NC State is a way better job and they average 14k a game and have more NIL. And was done wrong by LSU. Its laughable people think he would drop everything to come back to LSU
We'd have to back the Brinks truck up for him.
Which I'm happy for him at NC State. Objectively a better place to live, their arena isn't a morgue, gets to play Duke and North Carolina every year and most importantly he isn't in the SEC.
When McMahon is fired, I'd rather them poach Bill Armstrong. He is the closest we will ever get to Wade without it being Wade.
