Good blocking on that TD run by Gage

This is perhaps what was going on—figuring things out on the fly. But if that’s the case, what are practices for?

‘We’ve got the rest of the weak to make adjustments.‘
I see what you were doing here, but given the critiques of most of our oline, what you’ve written actually makes perfect sense.

re: I think they should lean into Leavitt or move on.

I think he needs to develop to the point he runs only and purely as a last resort. Meaning that he’s a pass-first player who can bail you out with his legs only when it’s a last-case scenario.
But it’s an easy habit to get into to think about running all the time. I won’t say it’s a bad one as it definitely is a positive at times, but he needs to work on dropping back and staying back.
It took Daniels a while to get there. I’m sure they’re trying with Leavitt; it just doesn’t come about in a week or two. Missing reps is very unhelpful for him

re: Will Wade signed Israeli professional point guard Yam Madar for $5 million

I remember years ago during signing day for football, the first player to fax in his papers was a tight end named Zach pendarvis.
One poster was quite excited about this and, perhaps dizzy from the rumors, the signing sagas, and all the random decommitments occurring nationally, he said he wanted to have a roster of Zach pendarvis’ who were excited to be tigers and really wanted to be a tiger.
Fair enough, I suppose, but the funny thing was for some reason—probably because he was overshadowed by other talent on the roster—pendarvis never played a single down for LSU.
There are probably lots of people who would die to play for lsu—that doesn’t mean we would be happy to watch them.
In terms of our recent basketball strategy, I believe wade is trying to put the best team in the court; we want to be competitive, right? If this beats the instate talent, then I’m for it if it means we can win.
I also believe wade has mentioned that we won’t be using this heavy international approach for long, but if applied correctly, it can certainly be successful. Look at Illinois—they’ve been nicknamed the ‘Balkan bloc’ for targeting Europe and the balkans.
I think fans just want to see a winning product, and everyone agrees that wade can (and already has) been good at this. We’ll see how things go, but I think we agree this will beat what we’ve seen over the past four years

re: What happened to Saliou Niang?

Several posters on here have said he’s a silent commitment who has yet to be made public. He’s waiting for his season to end apparently to make the announcement.
I’m not sure how certain anyone is, but that’s the word going around

Isn’t Kevin Thomas still on the team? Nobody is really talking about him, but I suspect he’d be a depth guy at this point who can take a little time to develop in the system.
re: MBB Offseason '26 Transfer Portal / HS Tracker
Posted by Horizon Imperial on 4/22/26 at 4:51 pm to Pmac96
He’s 6’7”, so I hope we don’t plan to play him at center. But I guess right now, as he’s supposedly the only guy on our roster, he might have to play all positions at once. If bugs bunny can do it, I bet he can, too

Wilkinson has shown he can put it into the bucket, but the question is can he keep the opposing team from doing it?
It’s still better than just about anyone we’ve had over the past few years, but we need defensive stoppers as much as we need scorers

He had a great game dishing it tonight. It’s great to see a true freshman develop in the absence of Thomas.
Is it me or do McMahon’s teams seem to play a little better when they have fewer players?

A perfect example of why baseball is such a crazy sport, why a box score doesn’t always tell the whole story, and how bad crap can happen to anyone for bizarre reasons

The whole football-is-king argument is fine for you and others to have, but it’s purely opinion.
It doesn’t mean that basketball can’t succeed. It doesn’t mean that the department can’t take it very seriously.
Basketballl should be heavily supported despite who is so-called king.
I bet three years ago everyone in Indiana believed basketball was king. There’s enough in the state and the surrounding area for both sports to be very successful—rank them as you wish but that’s all subjective

I think it’s clear that we hired a nice, calm, ‘clean’ personality to try and self-impose restrictions on ourselves before any worse could be done—at least that’s what it looks like looking back.
The joke is on us. We really went out of our way to screw ourselves regardless of if that was our intention. I think initially at least we thought we might be getting a good coach but morant, like Favre in football as previously mentioned, had much to do with any success.
Now I hope we get serious, get ambitious about basketball, and pull off a great hire. We are one good hire (and a major commitment to nil) away from possibly dominating the sec in all major sports, including women’s basketball, which is a subjective call if you want to put it among the likes of men’s basketball, football and baseball.
What is clear is that we shouldn’t screw around any more, nor should we doubt that lsu can be at the top of all major sports.

Is it ok that I’m thinking about football while watching the basketball box score (not even the game)?

I hate to say it, but whatever brings us a new coach and a renewed commitment to lsu basketball is good with me.

re: What kind of coach will LSU be able to attract for basketball?
Posted by Horizon Imperial on 1/10/26 at 9:48 pm to manonwheels28
There’s no reason we can’t spend some money to get a coach that can motivate, evaluate, maximize talent and develop a roster. It just takes a little money, and it doesn’t seem to be in short supply.
If they don’t do it, it’s not because they can’t; it simply because they don’t care enough. And sadly that might be where we find ourselves
