You guys are better off without Wade


Mar 21, 2017, 11:17 AM

Warning: this post comes with an admitted level of saltiness/bitterness.

Will Wade is a pretty good coach. He did not warrant the contract LSU gave him though. You guys might have dodged a bullet with this one (not saying BB is the answer either).

From day one Wade displayed a pattern of berating players in public. His press conferences rubbed many fans the wrong way. I often talked with an uncle of a prominent player on our team (who happens to post on our forum) and he often described wide-spread discontent amongst the team. There were one or two who were going to transfer after this season but will be staying now. Take that for what you will. The way in which he left was even worse: the players and staff found out through ESPN. Our AD had a verbal commitment from Wade and he totally turned his back in the late hours of the night.

Long story short, Will Wade was a robotic and calculating individual. I have no doubt he will use LSU as yet another stepping stone, if he shows any ability to recruit locally and win big games (neither of which he did for us).

VCU and Clemson are better off without him. Good luck in the future and with your potential coaching search next year.
