-Naz Reid’s girlfriend goes to LSU = undefeated

-Waters was a very late add after Georgetown had a coaching change and most other schools were full. Wade reached out while still coaching VCU and when he took the LSU job landed him.

-Emmitt Williams had a charge that was dropped late, but we never wavered in his recruitment. While waiting for the charge to be dropped most schools, including UF backed off. Stated it publically. It was a Rape/sexual harrassment charge that turned out to be another false accusation.

-Kavell Bigby-Williams was a transfer and also had a charge dropped. Sexual harrassment as well.

-Marlon Taylor was a low graded JUCO guy.

-javonte Smart is from Baton Rouge and loves the state

-Darius Days is probably the only one you have a legit argument for, but he probably saw the early playing time and the class that we were bringing in around him. Cant remember, but I think he was friends with Emmitt Williams as well.

Naz- wade had been recruiting him for years before the move to LSU, not out of this world to think naz would follow him to a sleeping giant.

Smart- from Baton Rouge, loves LSU

Bigby-williams- transfer from Oregon that no one wanted bc of past allegations.

Days- again, knew wade from his time at VCU and chose LSU over Florida bc of his relationship with wade and the trajectory he saw in our program. His initial leader was Louisville until the program made their free fall

E WILLIAMS- is stated as knowing wade for a while because wade had been rectruiting him for a long time. Couple that with the trajectory he saw in our program and that’s what made the decision for him. His other choices were Florida and Oregon- both of which are having down seasons.


Not one of these players is a “how did they get that guy” recruit if you’d really know what you were talking about

CBS Top 50...see bottom

References Maravich being on previous iteration before current players bumped him off.

He was an amazing recruiter at VCU.



Wade has proven recruiting chops. It is conceivable he landed those recruits in a correct manner.

Did he or did he not cheat? I have no idea. I imagine it will come out sooner or later. Until then I will happily sit back and watch the ongoing melt down.

I was joking. He did shite for recruiting at VCU. The players didn’t like him and were somewhat relieved when he left. He didn’t bring in anyone who contributed significant minutes other than Hamdy and Dighty.

He was there for two years I think.

Why do they even care about Reid and Waters anyway? We beat the top talent in the conference without either one showing up

They should be more concerned about our 6th-8th man

and?

There’s a certain football coach in Alabama right now sitting on the greatest run in cfb history who was a total dud in the NFL. The players didn’t like him and were somewhat relieved when he left. Now he’s dominating at his new job. What’s your point?
