re: MBB Offseason '26 Transfer Portal / HS Tracker
Posted by tigahlovah on 4/19/26 at 12:39 pm to Dwainwright
I'm president of the Will Wade fanclub and have no doubt he's putting a highly competitive roster together behind the scenes. He's done it EVERYWHERE he's been.
I just don't understand why a top portal recruit would keep quiet about how much he's being offered and by who, especially to other schools that could potentially pay him more.
Can you clear that up for me?

I've been to the PIT a few times over the years.
Wade is sitting in the scouts/coaches section that's roped off behind one of the baskets. I've seen Larry Bird up there in years past.
There are police officers there, and they wand you coming in, but it's hardly tight security.
You do know if you're in LA or NYC you don't have to look too far to cross paths with some very famous people, right? They just try to wear a ball cap or sunglasses to go unnoticed.

Nope. He's referring to hypocritical pricks like you who are never right.
Except for that time you said Wade wouldn't leave NC state for LSU. You NAILED that one.

I DO NOT know this as a fact, but would bet my next paycheck I was right about it if there was a way to find out:
FSU boosters have cornered the AD and every big wig at the university and have made it known they will stop ALL contributions to the school if ANY of the nickname, logos, or pre game traditions are changed one iota to appease these woke nut jobs.
And the brass has listened and not changed anything to my knowledge.

I got plenty to do outside of this board. My "essays" deal in reality, your BS responses come from a fairy tale land you've created in your mind.
I've got you tree'd, baw, but I'll let ya go now.
You've printed that BS narrative enough to where anyone with a brain on the rant knows you're either UNBELIEVABLY naive and unaware, or ABSOLUTELY full of prune juice.
Man, this conversation would have been INFINITELY better face to face, but as the Japanese say, "I bid you adieu."
Or is that the Indians that say that??

Are you related to sgt Schultz??
You know nothing.
You see nothing.
I don't know who did or didn't cheat, other than any program that's winning big did cheat pre NIL. Would you actually say this out loud to yourself.: "there are a lot of schools (your words) that recruited blue chip players and all they gave those players was room, board, and tuition. NOTHING ELSE"
Does that sound logical to you???
It's not just me. THOUSANDS of articles have been written about how filthy college basketball recruiting has been for decades.
But J Dawg says nope, they're wrong, it's not that bad out here. So are the dozen or so assistants I've spoken to over the last 15 years (Huntington prep, Montverde among them), who laughed at me when I innocently asked if at least a few of these top schools aren't buying these players.
What i think is possibly going on in your mind (if you aren't full of shite, which is HIGHLY probable), is that a decent percentage of the lower ranked EYBL guys, the ones that go to Rice, UTSA, or SFA type schools, actually were recruited cleanly. This COULD BE where your opinion is formed that a lot of schools/coaches are clean.
The top 50 players? Not a chance and you damned well know it.

If he's not a troll he's delusional. Kinda like that EYBL coach who SWEARS most college basketball programs were run cleanly pre NIL.

Google tells you nothing other than what's been officially reported. For instance Duke is clean in a Google search which is laughable in reality.
Please list others if the mood ever strikes you.
I'd love to have a list beyond the 3 you gave me of high level winning coach's programs that provided STRICTLY room, board, and tuition to their 4 and 5 star basketball recruits (pre NIL). I find that FASCINATING.

If you are/were an EYBL coach, there is ZERO chance I have more knowledge or credibility than you on this subject.
But I do have a reasonable understanding of human nature and common sense.
Once again, you claim a lot of coaches "do it the right way." I completely get that you're under no obligation to respond, but I would appreciate about a dozen more names, which should be no problem for an EYBL HC. I'm pretty sure McMahon was clean, I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about winners.

Are you serious? I would love to talk to this dude over the phone, or better yet in person.
I'm talking a civil, but spirited discussion.
I'm DYING to hear more about all these clean, winning programs I never knew existed. He was in the trenches, so he knows.

No JDawg, there were a lot of coaches that had YOU CONVINCED they were doing it the "right way."
Coach K NEVER got his hands dirty. But you can be sure that shite was facilitated for his and the program's benefit. It's well known, especially among your EYBL peers. Why don't you inquire about Duke's "purity" with a few of them? I have.
Stevie Wonder can see clearly how filthy basketball recruiting is. But not you, a HC in EYBL!! Nope, it's clean 'round here in Houston.
So just to be clear: there are a lot of coaches that do it the right way (your words), and by golly, some of them win.
Wright, Few, and Bennett are 3 HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL coaches that you know from experience that are in that category. Three isn't "a lot." How about a dozen more that run a squeaky clean program and win, unlike that scoundrel Will Wade.
You CANNOT POSSIBLY be this naive if you have been an EYBL coach for ANY period of time.
This is what most likely happened: Wade pissed in your cheerios somehow, and you never forgave him for it.
Then you've been "aw shucks" to death by these professional BS artists (college HCs) that know how to make you feel special and think "damn he's a helluva guy."
I've met Calipari half a dozen times over the years, and I TRULY am a nobody in the basketball world. He'd always give me a "hey LSU, how ya been" whenever we spoke briefly. You know why he does this right?? First of all, he's always in sales mode at these events, and secondly, he has no clue who I may know now or in the future that may help him in some way. And it literally takes 90 seconds of his time to leave me with a good impression about him.
But you know what homie? I don't think your naive, especially if you're truthful about your EYBL experience. I just think you've dug yourself a bit of a hole with this "a lot of coaches do it the right way and Wade is Hitler " bullshite, and your struggling to climb out.
If that's the case, just admit it, and all will be forgiven.
Also, LSU was top 10 nationally in defense Wade's last year here. Is it possible he was growing as a coach and learning to get better as he matured, especially with the top 5 class he had on the way before Woodterd bent over for the NCAA?
One last thing: how good of a coach is Schister at Duke? He was down 11 at the half to a 16 seed. The game was in the balance until the 38th minute. Wade would have lost that one, right?

What would you estimate the percentage is of top 100 EYBL players who went to school for strictly room, board, and tuition over the years? You've already stated that Few, Bennett, and Wright were squeaky clean. Any other coaches you can think of that won big without illegally recruiting?
Your own words are you never said everything was run cleanly. Just estimate the percentage. Also, how did those 3 coaches win so many games, and 2 won titles without resorting to the tactics that Wade and other monsters do?
You were a HEAD COACH of a Houston EYBL team for many years, so your estimate should be better than mine.
It goes without saying that the anti Christ (Wade) is the worst of them all, so leave him out of the estimate.
Also what were the reasons you don't like Wade again? I know you BLEED P&G and are DYING for LSU to win big in basketball, so they must be really good ones

So J-dawg, as a HC of an EYBL team in the 10th largest market in the country (for many years), you ABSOLUTELY have to know DOZENS of big name coaches on a first name basis, correct. And i bet that contact list in your phone is BURSTING with famous coach's phone #s, right??
Ya gotta have Wade's number somewhere in the Ws I would guess??
But it's all by the book there in Texas. Except for Wade of course. Is all that about right?
And if you knew JACK shite about how things were run at schools that had the infrastructure for it (like LSU football), you'd know that there is no surprise in coaches "not being involved". It's called DENIABILITY, and having your HC and others insulated from it. Think Johnny or Abernathy under Dale Brown. Or OLOL officials with the LSU football program. Or that patsy on Pitino's staff at Louisville who organized all the hookers and illegal benefits for Cardinal players with DADGUMMIT!! Pitino (a notorious control freak), having NO CLUE what was going on.
I would LOVE to treat you to a lunch of your choice, and have you answer (hopefully with a straight face) the MULTITUDE of questions I have for you.

So let me get this straight: YOU have been an EYBL coach in the Houston area for many years, and for the most part, things are run cleanly in your neck of the woods in respect to college basketball recruiting???
I got 3 words for you: BULL shite.
Or is that 4 words?
You are truly a DELUSIONAL person.

LSU HAS ADMITTED!!!!! that Vadal Alexander's family was illegally paid in the neighborhood of $175k while he was a member of the LSU football team.
Ya know who else was on that team???
Leonard MOTHERFLUCKING Fournette.
I guess you think it's REASONABLE that ole Lenny played for LSU for nothing more than room, board, and tuition, right??
Look Jdub, I know you are FULL OF shite on this.
You can't possibly believe that Alexander was paid illegally, yet Fournette and the other future NFL players on that team weren't. If I'm wrong about this ( and I'm not), you are one of the stupidest humans in existence.
And about your homeboys Few, Bennett, and Wright: I suggest that you attend an EYBL tournament (they're all over the country), and chat up a few of the coaches. They LOVE to talk shop, especially the assistants. Make sure you inquire about how many programs were clean before NIL.
And don't think for a second that under the table payments have ceased to exist just because NIL is a thing now. How do you think programs appease existing players that have a new transfer come in signing huge deals? With a bag of crisp cash, that's how.

Yo Jwill, yes or no:
Do you believe that zero players on our 2019 football national championship team received illegal benefits to attend LSU and play for that team?
If your answer is no, how do you reconcile supporting that team ya know, cuz of your lofty morals and all.
Or do you believe it's ok to cheat as long as you don't get caught? And if so, is that ethical?
You've dodged this question from me a few times already. Why don't you grow a pair and answer?

We've beaten Duke for players before. Livingston was the #1 player in the nation and picked us over Duke. Hell, 5 years ago Javonte picked us over Kentucky.
LSU has signed plenty of elite players in basketball over the last 50 years. From Dale (who signed 2 #1 overall nationally ranked HS recruits), to Brady, Johnny, and then Wade. Even Trent's lazy, boring arse signed Johnny O'bryant. The only outlier was the epic loser McMahon.
Our problem over the years has been quality coaching. We finally had a good one in Wade, then Woodterd Woodterded.

With the way I worded my post your response is correct.
I should have stated it didn't take long (which it most certainly DID NOT), for me to realize that McMahon was an epic loser.
I also had the hope you did when he was first hired, but that hope disappeared quickly.
