For an unprecedented punishment in the new NIL era. NCAA is just making up shite as they go along. This is what happens when you make a deal with the devil.

Like every college basketball coach.

LSU wasn’t prepared to set up go betweens like every other big time basketball school.

I love how naive some of you are in your fairy tale land. Recruiting is a dirty business.

No this isn't deal with the devil. This is LSU not having the spine/backbone to tell the NCAA to frick off like the rest of the SEC. You don't see anyone else with punishments and sanctions being brought forth.

THIS

Especially with someone like Woodward who supposedly has so many “connections.”

Fired Wade and still vacated wins and now this… appeasement does not work.

Would you prefer the accusation to be put in different terms?


It wasn’t just what he did. It was how dumb he was to be caught. If you want to argue everyone does it, whatever.

But you don’t say what he did on the wiretap through ANY electronic means. Period.

It’s dirty as hell, and you have to be a complete moron to get caught considering how many people do it & get away with it.

Will Wade had a bad lawyer. Perhaps had he cooperated with lsu originally he may still have a job. Enjoy lake Charles. Absolutely no one else wanted to hire you

That's not what I'm saying at all. Learn to read between the lines. What I am saying is LSU seems to be the only school doing this petty little shite. Nobody else is really self-reporting and suspending players, etc.

All this over a fricking autograph!? AN AUTOGRAPH? Get real.

We will never know just how good a coach he could have been.

Looking back, he was just 3 years ahead of NIL and started using the portal right away.

NCAA wants to hang on to credibility, that's all they are doing.

This narrative has always been laughable, but the dopes choose to believe it. “ I’ll fire my basketball coach if you leave me alone about football” is akin to, “ Sure Mr. criminal, go ahead and tell us about the murder and we will take it easy on you”. Dumb.

Woodward was trying to help his BFF (Emmert) save face by offering up Wade and promoting the illusion that the NCAA was "cleaning up this recruiting cesspool" under Emmert's watch.

That makes the most sense. We'd have been better off if those 2 weren't friends/in laws. The whole time, I thought that relationship was the ace up Scott's sleeve to just give Wade a slap on the wrist.

Smith needs to sue the NCAA. People forget that the whole reason NIL exists is not because the NCAA woke up one day and was suddenly cool with losing their free labor pool. NIL exists because the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in NCAA vs Alston that the NCAA's rules prior to 2021 violated federal law.

That means those rules should be unenforceable now, since the Sherman Antitrust Act was passed in 1890. It is time to either leave the NCAA or better yet, bury them in legal fees.
