The Piston's fully earned their reputation as Bad Boys on the court.
LSU is adopting as its identity Bad Boys for cheating in recruiting.
Not the same thing.
And what WW is doing is not good for LSU or its basketball program.
Let the downvotes begin!

I don't think it has anything to do with the alleged cheating and everything to do with the team getting tech'd up for talking shite...

If this was true - there are lot's of folks ahead of LSU in that regard and by your logic here are much badder boys.

It's perception with LSU, that's the bad boys rep - but when it comes to actual tangible evidence - Duke being one prime example where there is a paper trail not just hearsay on a tape transcript....if it's because of cheating in recruiting as you say - they would be pimped much more.

Perception is quite often reality.

Not surprisingly; but you are wrong on this assumption.

The FBI/recruiting stuff came out over 2 years ago. The whole "Bad Boys" moniker in reference to LSU just came about this past spring as a result of all the technical fouls LSU was getting.

It was referenced by media as saying Wade told his players (in private) that if they, meaning the rest of the SEC and country, are going to view them as the bad guys, the ones talking trash, etc., then don't run away from it and just embrace it b/c that view is never going to change. Therefore it is better to have teams hate to want to play LSU and use that as an advantage than to run from it and try to convince others that you really are good guys.

Does the recruiting stuff play into that some as far as how most other coaches view Wade? Yes. But not as it relates to the whole team.
