That’s why the facts are pushed aside and the cheating narrative is so vivid.

How does a reporter get his hands on FBI wiretap info?

I wouldnt think just anybody can make a public records request for it.

I suspect the defense gave the reporters the transcript because it benefits them to paint college basketball coaches as the bad guys and not Dawkins.

Calipari was incredibly pissed he didn't get Javonte Smart, and they lost the SEC. He is the rat. If you don't think UK basketball has that kind of stroke, you are kidding yourself.


Calipari has no sway with the FBI.

He loses players all the time and probably doesn't give two shits about LSU.

There is no conspiracy against LSU. That doesn't mean that there is not selective treatment of the blue blood programs or the hypocrisy of singling out Wade/LSU.

Callipari does have sway with Pat Forde, who lives in Kentucky.

Calipari is the Nick Saban of college basketball. There's no evidence he's ever deviated from pure ethical in his long tenure as a head coach.

It's unfortunate to say this, but there's something really fishy about a program suddenly morphing from a 2-17 laughingstock getting blown out in game after SEC game to a championship club preparing to cut down a net at home!

I remember Calipari bitching when smart committed to LSU but this is the feds. This is a wrong place wrong time situation.

Yet Kentucky and Duke basically field a completely new team EVERY YEAR.

Kentucky may be behind this. I don’t care. I care that things were said on a phone that shouldn’t have been said. Did Kentucky make him do that?

He never has before, which is why I'm surprised that Kentucky hasn't gotten caught doing ANYTHING since he's been there....

Apparently Wade just made a stronger offer than Cal...

So you think Calipari had the fbi tap the phones before Smart committed in anticipation of smart choosing the hometown team and then instructed them to release the tapes only after uk loses the sec


People have gone full retard over this.

OUR HEAD COACH WAS CAUGHT ON A WIRE TAP. Get it through your heads.

Dawkins' defense team is behind this, not Calipari.

That's just silly.

To me, this looks like the defense is trying to stall court proceedings by having a mistrial declared before the trial even starts.

It's obvious who is behind the leaks. The parties that have access to this stuff are pretty limited, and I don't see any incentive for the prosecution to be leaking this crap.

Did you people even read the article? Do you have any grasp of what's going on? This is an FBI investigation into this Dawkins character. The Wade call was completely incidental.

And to think that Cal or Kentucky give a shite about LSU is laughable. Oh LSU is good again and they got a good recruit, ooooooh. Let's go whack their program like we're living in a Sopranos episode. Give me a break. Kentucky dealt with Florida and Tennessee being good for years. They don't care about LSU.

Get it through your head, bigbird2000. Caught saying exactly what? The retard of all this BS is that we will be the #1 seed in the SEC Tourney and we will hang a Championship Banner. Wade will sign a 10 year deal with LSU when this blows over. No NCAA investigation pending. Remember this moment. Quit reading the news. Jealous people do stupid things. Makes for good entertainment though..Geaux Tigers!
