I think we're on the cusp of beating the general nickname into corny territory

Yep. Social media teams need to ease up on it. Let it mostly stay with the fans.

I'm glad they didn't let some nerd from marketing talk them into a rebrand of Wade.

We aren't there just yet. But, I bet if we referred to him as the Pearneral then that would be corny.

It's definitely less cool if LSU is running with it all promo and corporate style.

One can only hope. I'd love to be the one to tell him he's not welcome round these parts.

I agree. But imagine being one of those poor guys/girls that had to run LSU Basketball's social media for the last 4 years. They were tasked with constantly trying to put lipstick on a pig for an account no one was interested in. The only interaction on the account was about how bad the program and coach were. For the first time in 4 years they are getting positive attention. So they are running a bit wild

To me its "The Brigade" thing. Last week they had like 3 tweets in an hour mentioning "The Brigade". They are really trying hard to make that happen.

LSU’s PA announcer at the PMAC literally introduced him as “General Will Wade” before games at the PMAC years ago.

It’s 100% his accepted nickname. Deal with it.
