He's always been real salty when it comes to LSU for some reason. I can understand maybe if it were Clemson or Georgia...but he seems to hate LSU with even more of a passion even though there's really not much history there between the two schools. All that hate can't be good.

He just gets them on campus and turns them loose to do their thing. Doesn't seem to be a whole lot of actual development going on in that program right now.


He’s taken seriously flawed rosters and completely turned them around when a lot of teams would have flat out just quit. We lost at home to Bama by like 40 points and turned around and got all the way to the SEC tournament championship where we lost to the same team by 1 point. Wade is an excellent motivator and teacher, he’s just had some iffy roster management at the forward/center position the last few seasons.

sweet 16 under his belt


we're giving him credit for things he didn't accomplish then?

Will Wade has never coached in a Sweet Sixteen

Objectively, for the talent he’s had he has not yet accomplished much of note. I don’t know why his diehards bring up his age and/or “he’s not Johnny Jones” every time this discussion comes up.

All programs should aspire to reach Ryan Day status where we almost win the title every year but end up shipping our natty shirts to Guatemala.

Mid-June, CWS underway, in person football recruiting is back and popping, and an Ohio State fan is coming to a SEC message board to ask about Will Wade?


frick…. Ol Will must be doing something right to have you up all night worried about him.

He does not have a sweet 16 under his belt.

He wasn’t coaching

The only reason this thread was started. He would have taken that team further than the assistants took them.

Will Wade has accomplished a lot considering the all out attack on him by the media. Scott Drew went through the same thing and look at him now.

Agree

Needs to start emphasizing the little things (defense, rebounding, attitude) and he'll be fine.

At least get your facts correct for your troll thread. Dumb alter is dumb.

You still mad about 2007 when a LES MILES coached team absolutely whipped the buckeyes for a national championship?! STTDB

Just be lucky you didn't beat Clemson in the semis in 2019 bc we would have given you a taste of some nuts much sweeter than a buckeye!

Do what?

Waters was a top 40 player coming out of HS and is in the G league. Doesn’t seem like he improved.

Mays isn’t contributing a thing in the NBA

Would you like for me to list all the NCAA coaches who have eight years of HC experience with more tournament wins?

The ones that do are in some stupid cult of personality with him. There's a certain segment of the fanbase that worships Wade.
