So they are punishing him because he refuses to talk, based upon his attorneys recommendation,
That is pretty much it, and totally understandable in the context of LSU athletics and NCAA compliance.

not because he did anything wrong?
Only because the appearance of impropriety is there and refusing to talk to them makes it look worse. And if you don't think optics are a major part of college athletics and this in particular, you're not paying attention.
My biggest concern is that the NCAA is looking to do something to return the appearance of integrity (
) and Wade being the only head coach on tape puts a bullseye on his back and LSU by association. The lesson here? Always use a surrogate, always.

Yup. This is the college basketball version of bountygate. LSU going to get nailed because NCAA doesn't have the proof to nail anyone else.
