Still better than being a gutter dweller. Would have easily accepted a 5 game suspension for the general.

The Bruce Pearl blueprint? Will they get halfway through the season, realize they won't make the tournament, then self-impose a postseason ban like Auburn did?

Thats about all he will get, the NCAA will not be adding much if any additional punishment. This is peanuts compared to what the media and a lot of posters on here have said what they think. Proves even more how badly Woodward and Tate fricked up.

Kind of funny but this looks to be part of the appeasement for the NCAA

Would have taken an entire year suspension. We wouldn't have been any worse than we were already this past year.

* COACH shall submit a weekly report on all recruiting activities, which will include phone calls, texts etc. This weekly report will be submitted to Ms. Bridget Martin, Deputy Athletic Director for compliance or her replacement designated by Director. The Athletic Department will forward this weekly report to the Southland Conference league office.
* COACH and his staff shall participate in mandatory weekly NCAA compliance education classes conducted by Ms. Bridget Martin, Deputy Athletic Director for compliance or her replacement designated by Director. * COACH shall not be permitted to have any off campus recruiting related activities from date of hire through July 31 of 2023.
* COACH shall reduce official visits by 4 during the 2023/2024 academic years.
* COACH shall be banned from al recruiting conversations between September 2023 through October 15 2023.

For a 5 game suspension LSU could have kept their most successful basketball coach in the last 30 years. Instead, they cut bait and ran and now we have the worst basketball program in the SEC.

Yep, we could ah e done what UT did with Tony. Instead we just decide to fire him so Scotty can hire McLoser and bury basketball for years. Scott functionally did worse than a death penalty could have ever done.

This point hasn't been brought up enough but totally agree. Your program is still in much better position with this punishment than completely starting over. Woodward has done everything right snice's hes got here but not this. It still my end up working out with Mcmahon but it was a risk no doubt. For whatever reason he didnt value Will Wade enough. The reason he fired Wade IMO was a combination of the accusations brought to the program(even if just rumors) and him being able to bring in his guy.
