If you light LSU coach Will Wade's fuse, step back and watch the fireworks

"They (LSU) probably didn't want to play this game, to be honest." - UL-Lafayette coach Bob Marlin in a Monday (March 12) press conference previewing his team's NIT matchup at LSU on Wednesday

LSU basketball coach Will Wade remembered those 11 throw-down-the-gauntlet words and Marlin yammering about how he's never gotten LSU to schedule his team in the regular season.

That marinated in Wade's psyche for a couple of days, and he reminded his team about it.

"As a man, as a competitor, you can't let someone talk about you in a certain way and not do anything about it," LSU guard Skylar Mays said.
