LSU men's basketball has some rebuilding to do after firing head coach Will Wade following an NCAA notice of allegations. That task now looks like a complete and total teardown.

Sophomore forward Mwani Wilkinson entered the transfer portal on Friday per Rivals, making him the program's 13th scholarship player to make a move out of the program following Wade's firing. With serious NCAA sanctions looming, not a single scholarship player from last season remains on the team, for now.

As the line in Coach Carter goes, so we'll have new leading scorers next season. Not sure why this is even a story. LSU is a D1 basketball program in a good conference. They will be flooded with freshmen and transfer portal guys. Kids want to play, and they have all their scholarships so what's the rub?

Wade shouldn't worry though, Bruce Pearl and Kelvin Sampson continues to get hired. You cheat in college and there's no long standing punishment. What a joke college basketball has become.
 
I thought this was a joke for a moment when this started making headlines April 1st. Yikes.

Good thing for the new guy that roster turnover is easier than ever with the portal and guys having the bonus year.
