re: The hypocrisy of Will Wade on TD

There is no proof Wade did anything wrong. In response to allegations, Smarts mother denied any of the allegations were true and threatened to sue. The NCAA interviewed her and some others and cleared Smart to play.
The NCAA will probably come investigate LSU unfortunately.
The consensus is that all schools give some players illegal benefits, some schools more than others. If you are a fan of college football or basketball you are a fan of programs that break the rules.
That unfortunate state of affairs though can not be compared to a drunk passing out wads of cash in public. It’s not hypocritical to distinguish between the two, although both are wrong.
Cheating on your taxes is wrong and illegal. Embezzling from your company is wrong and illegal. It’s not hypocritical for people to be scandalized if they hear you were arrested for embezzlement and not so scandalized if they hear the IRS has audited your taxes and it looks like you are in trouble.
