re: LSU suspends Will Wade indefinitely; statement, stories from Yahoo, Advocate

Also, institutional control is quite firm. The fact is that LSU might be in deep shite, and Alleva gave Wade an opportunity to convince him that there’s nothing to worry about. Wade chose not to take the opportunity to give his boss the explanation he owed him, so Alexander suspended him. And given that Wade didn’t offer any reason why no one should worry about Smart’s eligibility, LSU had no choice but to bench him rather than run the risk of playing a player that virtually everyone on earth knows isn’t eligible.

So far, LSU has done everything right. As soon as damning evidence surfaced, they took action. That will go a long way should there be some sort of investigation.
