You are right about that, but I'm pretty sure he has the attitude that no great players would want to come and play for LSU, and if so, he couldn't be farther from the truth.

In fact, I thing an industrial strength argument could be made that LSU is one of the most underachieving programs in college basketball history based on the amount of elite talent that has played in BR, without the results that would be expected from having those players.

If we ever hire AND KEEP (are you listening Scott "Sebastian Coe" Woodward) the right coach, we could be right in the thick of NCAA tournament play and advancement for years. I'm hoping we make that move soon.

1) On planet Earth, we are TOP FIFTEEN ALL TIME in signing McDonald's/Parade AAs. Even Trent's lame arse signed Johnny O'Bryant, and all of our other coaches have also since Dale. Actually, Wade might not have signed one, but there's ZERO DEBATE about him getting excellent talent on campus.

2) Our all time team would be favored against ANY school not named UNC or UCLA .

3) We live on planet Earth.

Truer words have NEVER been spoken!!!

We're talking about a sport that matters to more than 5% of the country here homie. That eliminates college baseball from the thread.

Nutjob liberals make EVERYTHING political, even (and especially) entertainment pursuits that are supposed to be an escape from every day life.

They are chronically miserable, AND they love company.

I listen to it on demand when I bike. And it is repeated on the channel pretty much all week.

Precisely. How much more of this shite show do we need to watch.

He should've been canned after going 14 and MOTHERFLUCKING 40, but our administration thinks things are just fine.

He's only polarizing because of the BS media coverage in our country.

He wasn't polarizing AT ALL before he entered politics. Everybody loved him. Hell, the hags on the view were french kissing his arse whenever he went on the show.

It may take that "little extra" under the table to get certain recruits. Cash is also very hard to trace if laundered well enough.

Prick vitale, gay Bilas, Mark Emmert, Pat forde, Greg WOKEN, and everybody else that piled all over Wade for the LSU situation, AND anyone else involved in major college sports knows that EVERY SINGLE TOP RECRUIT has been bought by everybody (including puke and the great John wooden), for at least the last 60 years.

The hypocrisy is thick with any holier than thou article or comment directed negatively towards Wade.

He was simply doing what he had to do to try to compete with all the other CHEATERS in college basketball. You can argue he wasn't smart about it. Dale sure was. Maybe things have changed in regard to "covering your tracks" since the Dale days. Or more likely, LSU was becoming a serious threat for the first time since Dale, and certain people (possibly the FILTHY NCAA included) weren't having that.

I also believe that our administration enjoys projecting the image of compliance more than some of our competing schools who give ZERO FLUCKS about how they "appear" in that light. Just win, motherjumper, and our administration desperately needs to implement this mindset.

It's hysterical that anyone can believe this is true contrition on Wade's part. He is simply doing what he has to do to set himself and NC st up for being able to compete with once again, ALL THE OTHER CHEATERS.

And yes, I think it's reasonable to conclude that even in this NIL era, there's still plenty of money being passed around under the table ILLEGALLY to these elite recruits. Does it make sense that all of these schools/boosters are just completely toeing the line and obeying rules all of a sudden? Of course not.
