LSU's attorneys would be tongue-tied in court if Wade sues and LSU has to explain why they believed Smart but still suspended Wade if all they had to hang their hat on was that he was listening to his attorney.

Except for the contractual obligation WW has to cooperate fully with LSU and NCAA in any possible investigation or rules violation. Clamming up on lawyers advice is not fully cooperating. It's the smart thing to do, but does not comply with his contractual obligations.

Contradictory obligation can be a defense to a breach of contract claim especially when it involves an officer of the court giving proper legal advice to his client. The NCAA and a civil court case by Wade against LSU would be two different things and a court could question why LSU needed Wade's cooperation, which his counsel promised after Wade gave his upcoming testimony, if they had done as they claimed and done an exhaustive investigation in several states to clear Smart.
