It’s official! Former LSU men’s basketball coach Will Wade is returning to Baton Rouge to coach the Tigers again next season. The 43-year old Wade coached the LSU basketball team from 2017-2022 until he was fired following an NCAA probe into improper payments being offered to certain LSU basketball recruits. Back then, the NCAA did not allow schools to pay their players. Yet. Ironically, Will Wade’s dismissal by LSU in 2022 happened right as the NCAA’s new rules (such as they are) were being implemented to allow college athletes to receive compensation for their name, image, and likeness (NIL). Wade was simply ahead of his time. LSU was slapped with five NCAA sanctions and sent the basketball coach to the unemployment line. Will Wade re-emerged at McNeese State University in Lake Charles a year later in 2023. He led the Cowboys into their first-ever NCAA March Madness tournament in 2024 and, again, in 2025. Wade was then hired to become the head coach at North Carolina State this past season. His NC State Wolfpack team was selected to participate in the NCAA “First Four” round. They lost to Texas in that game to finish the year at 20-14. While that was happening in the life of Will Wade, LSU’s then-Athletics Director Scott Woodward hired former Murray State basketball coach Matt McMahon to run the men’s program in the spring of 2022. The Murray State Racers qualified for the NCAA March Madness tournament three times in five seasons under Coach McMahon before he left for LSU. Four years later, coach Matt McMahon’s LSU teams had won only 17 SEC games against 55 conference losses (23.6%). This season’s Tigers finished dead last in the league with a woeful 3-15 record. Matt McMahon was dismissed this week, but he won’t go away empty handed The ex-LSU basketball coach will receive nearly $8 million as part of his contract buyout provisions. He joined a growing number of former LSU sports leaders who were fired in recent years but received lucrative going-away presents upon their exit. Former LSU head football coaches Brian Kelly ($54 million – 2025) and Ed Orgeron ($17 million – 2021) along with former AD Scott Woodward ($6 million – 2025) have been paid handsomely to hit the road. When added to Matt McMahon’s $8 million buyout, that is $85 million which LSU’s wealthiest athletics backers have been asked to cover. In exchange, the school’s financial backers demand winners (sooner than later) in return for being asked to pay for so many expensive changes in Baton Rouge. Speaking of money, basketball coach Will Wade’s former school at North Carolina State will receive $4 million as compensation after his abrupt exit following season #1 in Raleigh. NC State Athletic Director Boo Corrigan was understandably miffed at coach Will Wade’s decision to leave his program after just one year. “As far as the resignation letter, it was an email that we received from his agent,” said Corrigan. “I’m disappointed at how it went down.” Is the LSU basketball job actually better than North Carolina State? LSU has zero NCAA men’s basketball tournament titles. Long-time coach and fan favorite Dale Brown’s Tigers played in two Final Four appearances (1981 and 1986), but his teams lost in the national semifinals both years. Brown’s successor, John Brady, led LSU to another Final Four appearance in 2006. Same result. Over the past twenty years, LSU was selected for the NCAA post-season tournament just five times. Three of those occurred during coach Will Wade’s five seasons with the Tigers (2019, 2021, and 2022). After being fired by LSU, Will Wade rebuilt his credibility by turning the McNeese State Cowboys of the Southland Conference into a basketball powerhouse during his two years in Lake Charles. The Pokes went 30-4 and 28-7, won the Southland Conference title both years, and made two consecutive March Madness post-season appearances. Wade left after two seasons to take the job at North Carolina State of the Atlantic Coast Conference. The Wolfpack already had two national championship trophies in Raleigh. Coach Norm Sloan’s 1973-74 team featured dynamic high-flying forward David Thompson, 7’4” center Tom Burleson and diminutive 5’7” point guard Monty Towe. NC State defeated legendary coach John Wooden’s mighty UCLA Bruins in overtime in the semifinals and then polished-off Marquette to win the school’s first basketball title. Coach Jim Valvano’s 1983 North Carolina State team won the ACC Tournament and barely qualified for the NCAA March Madness field as a lowly #6 regional seed. His “Cardiac Pack” thrilled the nation by defeating a series of top teams on their way to the title game against heavily favored Houston. Hakeem Olajuwon, Clyde Drexler and Houston’s Phi Slamma Jamma team lost to NC State on a stunning last second put-back for the Wolfpack’s second national championship. Given North Carolina State’s national stature in basketball, the job in Raleigh seems to be slightly higher in prestige than the men’s head coaching job at LSU. Since the turn of the century, the ACC was won ten national titles versus four by the SEC. Coach Will Wade’s first year at North Carolina State improved the Wolfpack from 12-19 last year to 20-14 in 2026. However… North Carolina State recently announced that it is having athletic budget issues A February report indicated that North Carolina State’s athletics department ran a $18.5 deficit over the past 12 months. The school’s athletic revenues of $126 million did not cover the expenses of $144 million. The report cited increased costs due to revenue sharing with the athletes. In fact, $18 million was shared by NC State’s athletes over in the past year. The school (like so many others) is now looking at raising ticket prices, holding large concerts on-campus, and other measures aimed to increase revenues without trimming athletic costs. Perhaps Will Wade saw the handwriting on the wall at NC State. He has moved to a school which has been spending money on athletics like the proverbial drunken sailor. Is LSU becoming McNeese State University – East campus? In the past six months, LSU has looked 130 miles to the west to hire two of its key leaders from McNeese State University in Lake Charles. McNeese President Wade Rousse accepted the vacant top position at LSU in November, 2025. The new LSU President was rumored to be the top choice of Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry. Yesterday (Thursday), McNeese State University Athletics Director Heath Schroyer announced his departure for LSU as well. He was named “Senior Deputy AD/Executive Director of External Relations” for the LSU system. Translation – Heath Schroyer will be tasked with raising more money for sports (particularly men’s basketball) while hovering over the shoulders of current LSU Director of Athletics Verge Ausberry. Schroyer had been a long-time college basketball coach. After becoming the McNeese State University Athletics Director, he brought Will Wade to coach the men’s basketball team in 2023. The program quickly blossomed into a Southland Conference dynamo. As the week draws to a close, the 2023-2025 era McNeese State University posse of President Wade Rousse, AD Heath Schroyer, and men’s basketball coach Will Wade has been reunited again in Baton Rouge. LSU’s athletics budget was already huge. What’s a few more million dollars to bring in a new men’s basketball coach and his good buddy, right? Men’s basketball at LSU has been in significant decline in recent years. However, the men’s basketball team financial income statement is, somehow, still profitable. LSU’s 2025 annual report to the NCAA showed that men’s basketball turned a profit of around $2.5 million despite declining home game attendance. Meanwhile, Coach Kim Mulkey’s very popular women’s basketball team at LSU averaged 10,707 fans per game vs. 7,147 for the men. The LSU women won the 2023 national championship and earned a #2 regional seed in the Women’s March Madness tournament this year. LSU fans are very proud of Kim Mulkey and the school’s women’s basketball program. Would you believe that the LSU women’s program posted an $8 million loss in 2025? How is that even possible? The compensation (salary, bonus, and benefits) for the LSU men’s and women’s basketball coaches and staff are fairly equal. In case you were wondering, Kim Mulkey earned $500,000 more than men’s coach Matt McMahon’s $3 million last year. Total expenses for the men’s team last year were $11.1 million. The LSU women’s basketball team spent $12.1 million in 2025. However, the LSU women’s basketball program produced total revenues of just $4.137 million (tickets, program donations, and about $500,000 from NCAA post-season tournament revenues). The women’s team had zero media income from the SEC and other media sources, though. The LSU’s men’s basketball team posted revenues of $13.625 million! The Tigers benefited from a $2 million check from the massive NCAA’s men’s March Madness TV contract plus another $7 million received from the SEC and others for media rights. That incremental $9 million for LSU men’s basketball from SEC media sources and NCAA tournament revenues makes a world of difference! From LSU’s perspective, there is still upside potential to increase men’s basketball ticket sales, merchandising, and, of course, NIL fundraising as coach Will Wade returns to the school next year. Ride ’em, ex-Cowboys! Expect the former McNeese State Cowboys’ dynamic duo of Will Wade and cohort Heath Schroyer to join forces to shake every possible money tree in Louisiana on behalf of the LSU men’s basketball program. Will Wade wants more money to buy better basketball players. LSU’s athletics budget of more than $200 million annually dwarfs the $146 million (and its $18 million annual loss) at North Carolina State. Coach Wade envisions LSU’s bigger pie and more to share with his players. The increased interest in men’s basketball around Baton Rouge resulting from Will Wade’s return should provide a reasonable boost to season ticket sales revenue. If Coach Wade is able to transform LSU’s men’s basketball team into an March Madness contender soon, the funding from basketball donors will grow as well. Time to giddy-up and Geaux Tigers!

We end the show with Joe Rose talking to Mario Cristobal after the huge win this past Saturday afternoon in Pittsburgh
It’s official! The 12-0 Indiana Hoosiers team (football, not basketball) crushed nearly every opponent and have earned the final #1 ranking for the 2025 college football season. Other college football rating services made 12-0 Ohio State as their #1. That’s quite understandable. The Buckeyes are the defending national champions and have enjoyed another terrific season. However, the Buckeyes finished in second place in the SwampSwamiSports.com College Football Top 25 rankings for the 2025 regular season. My ranking system gave the edge to Indiana by virtue of the Hoosiers’ 30-20 road victory at 11-1 Oregon. By contrast, the Buckeyes’ toughest win of the season came last Saturday in Ohio State’s methodical 27-9 beatdown of 9-3 Michigan. The Big Ten has morphed into “The Big 18” teams. That meant that Indiana and Ohio State will face a different set of conference opponents every season. Indiana handed Oregon its only loss of the season. That’s why the Hoosiers are my #1 team as the regular season ends. Indiana and Ohio State are now the final two unbeaten FBS teams after 9-3 Texas handed Texas A&M its first loss of the season Friday night in Austin by a 27-17 final score. The Indiana Hoosiers will enjoy some unexpected home cooking this Saturday as they face the Buckeyes in the Big Ten championship game at 7PM (CST) on FOX. Saturday’s game will be played (as always) at the home field of the NFL’s Indianapolis Colts. By this time next week, the FBS will have just one team with a perfect record heading into the College Football Playoffs. Congratulations to Indiana for being my top rated team in 2025! Why are 10-2 Alabama and 11-1 Georgia playing in the SEC Championship game instead of 11-1 Texas A&M or 11-1 Ole Miss? All four teams were 7-1 in SEC competition this season, but only two can play in Saturday’s SEC title game (3PM on ABC). Here are the SEC tiebreaker rules: A. Head-to-head competition among the tied teams. Alabama – won at Georgia 24-21 in late September. Bama did not play either Texas A&M or Ole Miss this season. Bama gets the nod over Georgia in a tiebreaker. Georgia – lost to Alabama 24-21. The Bulldogs beat Ole Miss 43-35. That win gives Georgia the advantage over Ole Miss. The Bulldogs did not play Texas A&M this season. Texas A&M – did not play Alabama, Georgia, or Ole Miss this year (odd, isn’t it?) Ole Miss – lost at Georgia (43-35) and did not play against Alabama or Texas A&M this season. In this first scenario, Alabama would eliminate Georgia (based on a head-to-head win) and Georgia would eliminate Ole Miss (another head-to-head win). Texas A&M (which didn’t play any of the other three SEC teams with a 7-1 conference record this year) would still be “alive” at this point. B. Record against all common opponents among the tied teams. In the second tiebreaker scenario, Georgia beat Texas (35-10). Texas A&M then lost to Texas 27-17 last Friday. Georgia’s win over Texas was enough to eliminate Texas A&M. How did 7-5 Duke make it into the ACC Championship game this Saturday? This year’s Atlantic Coast Conference football race was dominated early in the season by Georgia Tech and surprising Virginia. The Yellow Jackets started 8-0 but faded by losing three of its final four games. The Virginia Cavaliers finished as the ACC’s #1 team by virtue of a 7-1 conference mark and a 10-2 overall record. This Saturday night at 7PM, the ACC Championship game features Virginia playing…7-5 Duke? Duke benefited from a weak conference schedule. The Blue Devils’ six ACC wins came over teams with losing conference records. Duke was part of a massive five-way traffic jam for second place in the ACC at 6-2. They were tied with 10-2 Miami (FL), 9-3 Georgia Tech, 8-4 SMU, and 8-4 Wake Forest. Somehow (I won’t try to explain this one), Duke won tiebreakers over Miami, G-Tech, SMU, and Wake Forest to emerge as the second place team. A win by Duke over Virginia on Saturday night would hand the ACC crown to the Blue Devils. However, an 8-5 Blue Devils team would not receive an automatic invitation into the College Football Playoffs. Other conference champions (such as the American or Sun Belt) could receive that slot in the playoff by virtue of having better season records. So, why do the Power Four Conferences (ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, and SEC) bother playing these conference championship games now? Television money, of course! This weekend’s reduced college football slate brings more TV eyeballs to the rather finite number of televised games. That’s a bonanza for the networks (ABC/ESPN and FOX). Their sales staff is busy selling prime advertising slots to a male-dominated audience of shoppers during the crucial Christmas merchandising season. Believe it or not, the SEC is paid about $470 million for its entire slate of games televised by ABC and ESPN for this season. That doesn’t count extra money from the College Football Playoffs. The “Bank of SEC” takes in about $31 million per week over a 15-week season (12 regular season games over a 14-week span plus this weekend’s championship game). An incremental $31 million payday for this weekend’s SEC Championship game is why we are being forced to wait another week prior to the beginning of the College Football Playoffs. A special consolation note to U-Mass Minuteman football fans The University of Massachusetts (U-Mass) joined the Mid-American Conference beginning July 1, 2025. After November 29, 2025’s final weekend of college football games, U-Mass is still searching for its first Mid-American Conference football victory. They didn’t win a single game this season! The Minutemen even lost (at home) to FCS member Bryant University 27-26 in September. U-Mass lost its home finale on Saturday to 4-8 Bowling Green 45-14 as the only FBS team in America to finish 0-12. First-year coach Joe Harasmyiak said after the team’s final loss, “The record is the record. It’s crappy. It’s not acceptable.” Indeed! There’s only one way to go next season, right?!!! Hey, Swami! Aren’t you going to discuss the Lane Kiffin situation today? Come back on Tuesday for that. Here’s a teaser to think about today. Why did Tulane and North Texas allow their current coaches (who are leaving for Florida and Oklahoma State respectively) to keep leading their current teams until season’s end, but the Ole Miss Athletic Director did not? Let’s reveal the FINAL SwampSwamiSports.com FBS College Football Top 25 rankings for the week ending November 29, 2025: The post Indiana Hoosiers Earn SwampSwami’s 2025 Top Spot! appeared first on SwampSwamiSports.com.
The Atlantic Coast Conference got just four teams into the men's NCAA Tournament last season, one of the lowest totals it's had in decades.

The Atlantic Coast Conference ruled with an iron first over it's member institutions for nearly ten years after then-commissioner orchestrated the ‘ironclad' Grant of Rights deal that virtually locked in each school. This spring's settlement - or rather nearly full concession - brought by Clemson has monumentally shifted the conference's grip, the league giving away perhaps the one thing that held the league together in this era of movement. Inside Carolina's Greg Barnes joins host Tommy Ashley on this edition of Next Level to break down the background, the concession and what it all means for UNC.

The Tar Heels had a tremendous résumé and are loaded with stars, with starting pitcher Jake Knapp, catcher Luke Stevenson, first baseman Hunter Stokely, 1B, North Carolina, pitcher Jason DeCaro, outfielder Kane Kepley, second baseman Jackson Van De Brake and reliever Walker McDuffie all making one of the Atlantic Coast Conference's first three all-league teams. The Tar Heels posted an outstanding 3.46 ERA, hit 73 home runs and stole 83 bases and look to be one of the most complete teams in the NCAA tournament. Oklahoma, with ace and soon-to-be MLB first-rounder Kyson Witherspoon, can beat anyone when he's on the mound. The Sooners are athletic and can run and defend with catcher Easton Carmichael, center fielder Jason Walk and third baseman Jaxon Willis among the lineup standouts. Can the Sooners get enough pitching from starters Malachi Witherspoon and Cade Crossland--who are talented, but inconsistent--to win the regional? Nebraska won the Big 10 tournament pitching in spacious Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, thanks to a monumental championship-game effort from right-hander Tyler Horn. It's not a team laden with standouts--reliever Luke Broderick was the only Cornhusker on the first three All-Big Ten team--but Case Sanderson leads a quality offense that likes to put the ball in play. Fourth-seeded Holy Cross took a game in its series at Auburn earlier in the year. Jimmy King (20 steals), Gianni Royer (24) and CJ Ergrie (35) are good at reaching base (a team mark of .407) and running, and durable ace Danny Macchiarola gives the Crusaders a chance to win when he pitches.

Athletic programs sit at the forefront of colleges and universities, generating extreme revenue and creating a vast fan base. In recent years, changes to the transfer portal and the addition of name, image and likeness (NIL) deals, have drastically altered the landscape of college athletics. What will this new era mean for student athletes and college sports overall? NCAA commissioners of the four major conferences, Greg Sankey of the Southeastern Conference, Jim Phillips of the Atlantic Coast Conference, Tony Petite of the Big Ten, and Brett Yourmark of the Big 12, discuss why they are seeking the support of Congress to lobby for federal NIL guidelines.
