Louisiana may not be ideal state for a NHL team,but they do have ice in Lafayette,Shreveport and Baton Rouge.

The fragility of the LSU psyche is incredible.

They have longstanding, bonafide success in the sports that count (and those that don’t).

Yet despite all this success, they now want to pretend the WNBA is a “major sport,” simply so they can add another “accolade” to their tally?



SEC Network made the graphic, not LSU fans.

Yeah as a LSU fan, I find that tweet pretty stupid

WNBA over the NHL is lol worthy, and we’ve had a #1 pick in the MLB draft since Ben McDonald. The draft yesterday changed nothing

NHL is like 3x bigger than Major League Soccer, which itself is like 30x bigger than WNBA by revenue.

In no universe is WNBA top 4.

This really doesn’t change the fact that the WNBA isn’t a major draft

Hell, I learned that first round picks in the WNBA getting cut early in season or even preseason is normal when Alexis Morris got waived after a whopping one game. Made the WNBA draft a even bigger joke in my eyes

ETA: the #1 pick in 2018 just got waived as well. Not traded. Just cut from the team. That doesn’t happen in other leagues that quickly

Interesting timing. This technically happened already in 2006 with Augustus going #1 in the WNBA draft. Shaq was 1996, McDonald in 1989, and Canon in 1960.
