re: I don’t think it’s right for the admin to be treating MM like this

They are trying to not get caught with their pants down if Wade backs out last second and we already fired McMahon and are left scrambling to find a coach they have not been in any contact with for weeks/months. They absolutely plan on keeping McMahon if Wade falls through, full stop, they are trying to make sure that doesnt happen by making Wade not be able to say no.
This is just silly.
He hasn't won enough games to keep his job. Why let him keep it another year if Wade falls through? It leads to two options: he continues to lose games and is fired in 2027 or maybe he has a slight upturn in success. In the latter situation, do you extend him?

re: BOTH NC State insider boards' staff writers are reporting Wade to LSU is in motion

Disagree. I think it suggests lsu has the resources to win despite the coach but with the right coach it can be done consistently.
See PM vs JJ
I continue to argue it is the right person at the right place and at the right time.
I don't think JJ could do what PM did in that era, frankly. His success has been based on building a team like this year, or 2024, finding the flaws, flushing them, and replacing them.
But he's the perfect coach for the NIL/portal era for LSU. Meanwhile, the opposite is true. PM just cannot succeed in this era, but pulled LSU out of the Smoke basement successfully.

This suggests that the only reason any coach succeeds is because of LSU.

Is it just me- seems like we have dominated this game but only up 5
TT's offense has almost solely been jacking up low % threes, and they just made a couple of them (and got a couple of weak shooting fouls).

Man, we started SEC play 3-12 in ‘24 and were one break away from hosting a Super. Not saying the same thing will happen but JJ’s teams typically get better as the season goes on.
We’ll be alright
I think people need to start realizing how narrow the line is between a championship-level team and a team that misses the NCAAT or barely makes it in.
LSU went 19-11 last year and hosted a SR.
Last year, the bar was lowered for SEC teams and a 13-17 made it in (UK)
LSU won 7 SEC games by 1 or 2 runs. You could probably find a single moment in each of those games and say LSU was 7 plays away from not making the NCAAT last year.

Who was the guy last night bragging about how much better of a position LSU was with pitching?
We can complain all we want about this defensive performance, as it's awful, but you cannot expect to win Sunday games with 3 runs.

She’s Dawn Staley’s bitch. That’s what I know
Just about everyone is hers (and/or Auriemma's).
Going back to 2000:
UConn has 11 of the 25 NCs
USC has 3
Baylor has 3 (Mulkey is now with us obviously)
ND has 2 (McGraw is now retired and ND has fallen off)
Tennessee has 2 (Program has taken a huge step back since Summitt passed)
LSU, Maryland, aTm, and Stanford all have 1
The reality is that most of the one-off winners didn't have to go through UConn or post-2020 USC (Staley has been good at USC since ~2014, but the 2020 season is when she broke down the door).

A NC team would never get run ruled by a team like Northwestern State.

I have a couple friends who are retired from DoTD. I still gripe to them about it, even though they had nothing to do with it.
Notice the shadow of the tree in the lower right of your photo. They threaded the approach ramp around the north side of that tree. If they had laid it out around the south side, the merging lane would be twice as long.
This is the earliest satellite shot of that area I can find, and it seems crazy that they would have designed such an odd, curvy, entrance all because one tree.

LSU fans seem to want MBB to be top tier, but it's very clearly 2nd or even 3rd tier to the fanbase.
People didn't even show up to games for the 2006 Final Four team. LSU played the final game of the season at home having won the SEC, and it still wasn't a sellout. We averaged like 8-9k fans in attendance for the SEC home games that year.

What a weak attempt to create 2 mini Super Bowls.
There are cities that would love it.
NOLA would want it probably every year instead of the Super Bowl (except for maybe every 10 years). Cities are learning that the Super Bowls don't actually boost the city economy. But, AFC/NFCCGs would because it would actually be fans traveling in and spending money in those cities as vacations.
That being said, it would go over like a ton of bricks with the fans.

If there was one thing basketball needed to get more people to watch, it was more stoppages of play and reviews.

Payton called a real turd of a game.
One of the worst I've seen from him.
He's had a number of them in the postseason.
People generally forget that the Saints were basically useless for 3/4 of the game leading to the Minn Miracle. The 2019 playoff game was kind of similar (comparable yardage by Saints in the 4th quarter as the first three quarters combined).
The Saints also nearly lost to the 9-7 Eagles in 2018 in the Dome (quickly went down 14-0, Eagles were driving to win with a minute left).
re: Unique praise for Indiana, which really sums up their greatness
Posted by OvertheDwayneBowe on 1/20/26 at 4:03 pm to mizzoubuckeyeiowa
Miami really had about 30 opportunities to win this game.
They had multiple dumb 3rd down penalties on defense. Two on the same TD drive for Indiana.
Missed FG right before halftime
Blocked punt
Multiple 4th down conversions by Indiana.
I'd argue that Indiana basically played perfectly and nearly everything bounced their way, and they still scraped by.
This one would sting for me if I were a fan of Miami.

I still blame Jared Cook for fumbling in that game. Saints were moving it at will until that gave TB a huge spark and never looked back.
I don't know if the Saints could beat the Packers in GB the next game, though.

So yeah, it didn't change anything but about 8 seconds. I don't get not trusting Stafford.

Why do we have former refs on the broadcast if all they do is cover for the current ones?
