    Cody is back from Disney, but he left most of his brain behind.

Plus, Harrison breaks down his new longform feature on Tari Eason, up now at LSUSports.net.

    Adam Miller AKA Ace Wolf on Rehab, Wearing No. 44, and What's to Come in 2022-23

    An exclusive interview with LSU sophomore guard Adam Miller [8:37] as he works his way back from a preseason ACL tear that has sidelined him for the 2021-22 season.

    Miller, expected to be LSU's leading scorer prior to his injury, discusses his rehab process, the mentality of Chicago player, his affinity for LSU even before his recruitment began, and how he hopes to honor Wayde Sims and the Sims family while wearing No. 44.

    Back after the regular season to preview the SEC Tournament and, hopefully, look back at a three-game Tiger winning streak.

    In Chaos, There is Opportunity

    LSU has two more wins. Xavier Pinson, Tari Eason, and Brandon Murray are the best trio in college basketball. Eason is a historically great two-way player. And the Tigers have a big five-game stretch ahead of them. 

    All that and more on today's Boot Up.

    They also discuss their favorite wins of the Will Wade era, after The General picked up Win No. 100 at LSU.

    Will Wade Unfiltered on NIL, Getting Healthy, Fouls, and More

    Sometimes, Will Wade is at his most honest and candid when the results are going the wrong way. 

    The injury bug, poor finishing around the rim, and an unexpected defensive slide has seen LSU struggle in recent weeks, losing five of six after a 15-1 start to the season. 

    Wade didn't shy away from any of that at Thursday's edition of Will Wade Unfiltered, live from Walk-Ons. Nor did he shy away from questions about NIL, officiating, or how to battle through an incredible run of injuries. 

    On today's show, we hear from The General on what he can control, what he cannot, and how the Tigers can grind out the wins they need down the stretch to make a run once they get healthy.

    Keep Climbing

    Harrison and Cody are here to tell you why there's reason for concern but no reason to panic. 

    After all, the best views come after the roughest climbs.

    Coup de Grace: Tigers Top Kentucky to Rebound from Auburn

    Harrison and Cody are back to break down a tale of two contests – the first loss of the season at Auburn and the biggest win of the season vs. Kentucky. 

    On the table for discussion are Brandon Murray's importance to LSU, Eric Gaines' impact in defeat and victory, the historic dominance of LSU's "junk defense," and more.

    (Editor's note: Cody hinted at a Brandon Murray interview to play after this episode – for the sake of time and production, we'll save that for another episode. Apologies!)
