It’s the selective enforcement by the NCAA that is frustrating.

CanebreakCajun•39 months

Fire the guy who may have paid a player, keep the executive who hushes sexual assault. Makes sense.

Wish we had an OG like Wade that won games, but they had cause anyway...but the fact remains: this current incarnation of LSU is an embarrassment.

JOHNN•39 months

This is what really baffles me. Verge has to have something big on the school if they are still keeping him around. At this point the school is in so much sh!t that they might as well just let him go and take whatever the NCAA gives them.

LSU82Cajun•39 months

Ausberry! Don’t understand why he’s still at LSU.?

nwacajun•39 months

Let Kim roll with the Men's team. She's got more ball than most.

How cool would that be!! Could she be a threat in men’s bb? I would love to see it

mtemplet•39 months

I’m all for it. That would be amazing

19•39 months

As woke as LSU thinks it is, they would laugh at this idea. ...but I'm not.

Wayne_T•39 months

Given the nature of the violations, this move was likely about trying to minimize sanctions on both the football and basketball programs.

FLObserver•39 months

Its ok we a Women's Basketball school now.

KennabraTiger•39 months

There is a link, there ya go to see his side or whatever side

atltiger6487•39 months

I don't know what Wade can say. I think a lot was just posturing by him. The allegations, including the tape, are damning.

Dale Brown beating his chest with dickeyV for sure.

LSUDAN1•39 months

Dale Brown isa cancer on LSU Basketball.

LSUTheodore•39 months

What a joke we have become! A day before they pick our seating?! Why not fire him 2 years ago if this is the outcome

Lowes knowsLSU•39 months

Didn't know what it was 2 years ago

Jabontik•39 months

Can Scott just move Kim Mulkey over the MBB program and promote someone to take over the WBB? Serious question

CrystalPreserves•39 months

Everyone with the “f woodward” comments should change those to “f the ncaa”

Lsutigerturner•39 months

This fricking sucks. Man WTH he has done great things for LSU bringing us back to relevance and we don't stick by him. He must have known this was coming.

Barbellthor•39 months

Must've been legit. That sucks. Oh well.

nolimitnola•39 months

Giving back my season tickets

WeeWee•39 months

Another Alleva hire bites the dust.

KennabraTiger•39 months

Wasn’t Alleva’s hire really

Wayne_T•39 months

Scott Woodward did the right thing. Kudos to him.

Burreaux09•39 months

Agreed. Keep draining the swamp. He'll hire a winner.

Stew2581•39 months

You know Scott will be going big game hunting for the new coach as he did with FB and WBB so not worried at all. Will be a great hire and since they don’t owe WW a buyout they can afford anyone they want.

CanebreakCajun•39 months

Yeah, Scott always does the right thing, Verge Ausberry says hello.

LSUJuicer•39 months

And the program will go quiet again.

Simplemaaan•39 months

This has got to be because of the NOA. No reason to fire him before tournament.

Freddy238•39 months

Man frick I'm hurt. Thanks coach wade, I'll never forget what you did for our men's basketball program. I'm forever a fan of yours.
