His name is Shannon Forman, a fixture in Baton Rouge basketball circles and someone who LSU freshman guard Javonte Smart referred to as "my mentor." Documents viewed by Yahoo Sports show a link between Forman and Christian Dawkins, the aspiring agent and recently convicted felon who Wade was talking to on the call that has ultimately led to his suspension.

So if they had this, why did they sit on it until the day before we played our next game?

Can you quote or summarize? I’m not giving them clicks if I don’t have to...

Ok? Who ducking cares? We knew someone was taking to Wade. Little bitches are just trying to get more run.
Admins should delete this shite.

I know Shannon Forman, or knew him. Played b-ball for Southern Lab.

They have had all this information since the first leak in October. They have been slowly realeasing it at opportune times around the ncaa tournament when people are most focused on the sport.

Is it that far fetched that a kid from Baton Rouge went to LSU?

Exactly. They're releasing it in pieces to make it seem like breaking news.

Not only why did they sit on it, it doesn’t say anything about smart and money all it says to me, Dawkins knew a guy from aau circles in Baton Rouge who knew smart. Hell go anywhere and you can find that connection.

If this is the best yahoo sports has at this point, they are grasping for straws.

Is it that far fetched that LSU is getting players illegally no matter where they are from?
Posted on 3/28/19 at 11:58 am to TheSHU
LSU claimed had identified him before, what's the big deal?

Any chance this affects Smart’s status tomorrow?

I was under the impression all of this was released back in October, they just basically redropped the story to tilt it towards the guilt of WW. Anybody who reads Yahoo and takes it seriously is no friend of mine

Shannon Forman is the middleman, according to sources. Smart has been quoted saying that he is a mentor of his. Documents show relationship between Forman and Dawkins.
Clearly with the timing of these drops, there's some motive by someone to take down LSU.

No imo... Why would it? There's nothing new here regarding what the actual offer was... Just who the guy Wade was referencing when he made the offer.
But then again Alleva and F. King are running the show, so who knows

What exactly is the new breaking news that this article breached? Naming the middle
Man? Who cares. They cleared smart. This is such a non issue at this point

In addition to the Forman-Calipari connection, Smart had begun playing AAU ball with Houston Hoops, a reliable pipeline to Kentucky in recent years (De'Aaron Fox, Jarred Vanderbilt, 2019 commit Tyrese Maxey). Yet two months later, Smart had committed to LSU.
So how strong was Kentucky’s offer to get Wade all pissed off? If this is all true Wade obviously wasn’t bidding against himself?
How is this little detail being overlooked in this situation and the Kansas/Duke/Zion deal?
