No matter what happens to the Tigers in upcoming games, they will likely be punished—Wade may get fired, the program may be sanctioned, and this season will probably be vacated because the team played with Smart, who will, in all likelihood, be ruled ineligible.

Well, if that’s the way this is going to go down, I hope LSU wins the whole damn thing. I’m gonna enjoy the hell out of every game LSU wins, especially because some day, after the NCAA has profited, it will tell us that this run never happened.

I appreciate this opinion, and this guy is not alone in my experience.

Some of my friends and co-workers who actually follow college sports have basically said they want LSU to go far because they hate the hypocrisy of the NCAA and the sanctimonious assholes in the media. They want us to blow up the college basketball cabal as much as possible.

Some of the best threads on this board reminisce about the great moments and players we've all seen over the years. No matter what the NCAA eventually might do, they can't vacate memories. So at this point, I'm just enjoying the hell out of the here and now.

This is not reporting. This is a hack job and our PR department should be out in front stopping this shite.

LSU broke the rules, but those rules, morally, shouldn’t exist in the first place.

How the frick does Rodger Sherman know Wade paid a player?

The same way he knows all the other top coaches pay players. He just won’t talk about them.

quote:

---

head coach Will Wade, who is currently suspended after being caught on an FBI wiretap discussing payment for a recruit

I have seen that exact quote in a lot of articles. That is BS reporting. No where on the wiretap transcript made public was a “payment” mentioned. But journalist keep reporting that as fact.

LSU enters the NCAA’s biggest moneymaker under active investigation

Uhhhhh nope. Kansas is though. Auburn is as well. THEY PLAYED EACH OTHER TONIGHT. Zero mention. I really don’t understand why LSU is the scapegoat and others are being ignored.

I keep reading that Wade offered payment.

Since when does "damn strong offer" mean monetary payment?

No one knows what "the offer" even entails.

Good read.

Because LSU’s admins were the only ones dumb enough to suspend people over it.

Even the teams new 'Boot Up' slogan -
