I partly think F King and Alleva were dumb enough to think that if they suspended Wade the media outrage would calm down. Well, now they've infuriated most of their fanbase. It is ridiculous that they made their meeting so public and exactly WHY they suspended Wade...but I think all parties involved will meet tomorrow and Wade will be reinstated by tomorrow night.

As of now, as Solo Cam posted in another thread, our administration made a knee-jerk reaction to a sports article. Say what you want about why the situation got to this point, but this is 100% because of a Yahoo Sports article...that's it. We are not under NCAA investigation, Will Wade is not under FBI investigation.

The fan support, the realization they may have made a quick reaction, and extra time to discuss all matters are why I think he will be reinstated.

I ask you Tiger Rant, what do you think will happen?

Here’s my take. He’s suspended tonight, and the sec tournament. He gets reinstated for the big dance. Sean Miller was suspended last year for a couple games under the same kind of situation somewhat. I can’t beleive we suspended him, I hope it’s just before we are in ride or die mode.

Sadly, I think he's gone for good.

His suspension will be lifted when they feel a safe resolution is met, not because of pressure from the fan base. Maybe it’s a game, maybe it’s never

Yeah, the more this moves on the more I think he'll coach again at LSU barring some major revelation of actual evidence of cheating

He won’t coach at LSU again and next season our only returning player will be Marshall Graves.

His statement yesterday seems to indicate that he won't have contact with the team until late April at the earliest.

I hope I'm wrong.

FTR, I don't think he should be fired no matter how this turns out.

The only way I would not be infuriated with him leaving LSU is if he's issued a show cause.

It depends on if Wade and Alleva are communicating behind the scenes and we don’t know about it. If LSU has told Wade that this suspension is just a formality and that he still has their full support, then I can see him staying on. If Alleva is preventing WW from seeing and/or speaking with the team and LSU is in full “circle the wagons” mode, then they plan to throw Wade under the bus. Why would he want to come back after that?

The problem though is he's not going to discuss anything with LSU officials, assuming the lawyer advice info is accurate. How can they reinstate someone without even discussing his suspension and actions that led to it.

Wade will never coach another game for LSU.
Smart will never play another game for LSU.

Nothing is going to change between now and the end of the season so why would anyone expect them to be back?

I don't think Will Wade will coach another game with Alleva as his AD.

Take that however you want...

Alleva POV: I can not lift this suspension until Wade comes forward and satisfies the conditions that led to the initial suspension. Especially not while there is such a black cloud over the program

possible Board of Directors (or whoever is over Alleva) POV: our AD just suspended our basketball coach on the eve of the final game, in a season where we will take the court already SEC champs, and playing for the right to be sole champions. He did this due to pure speculation and media pressure, with no active NCAA investigations or charges filed as of yet. He has publically humiliated the University in the worst possible manner, and has done irreparable harm to the prestige and reputation of LSU athletics.

I’d say he’s gone. Anyone at LSU with any power at all is, at the very least, a huge pussy. No spine whatsoever.

I think him and smart are done at LSU. I think LSU is putting the wheels in motion for a separation.
