re: There are rumblings of plea deal with Dawkins

Y'all are crazy if y'all don't think the NCAA is all over us.... Don't you remember the NCAA wanting to be at a meeting with Aleva and wade ,along with compliance.. Also, everybody seems to forget that in the transcripts, wade reportedly made reference to an offer as large as the NBA league minimum... How do you explain that with the scholarship offer defense. Idk if y'all are just overly optimistic or what, but this shite isn't gonna end well.

How do we know that the NCAA has "nothing, no paper trail, no witnesses"? According to numerous sources, it has been on campus for several mths now. And do not forget, the NCAA is not a court of law, its degree of "proof" has nothing to do with that found in our legal system.
So you think there’s a paper trail linking Wade? To who? Smart? You sure? That bridge has been crossed.

So you don’t think the NCAA will be the least bit interested in conducting their own investigation?
Of 50 basketball programs, numerous head and assistant coaches, and countless players? Where will they get the manpower? Some of you still think this is an isolated incident involving just Wade. The NCAA will leave it to each school to self-police and LSU is, so far, the only school to fall on the sword. Well, there's Louisville but they were supplying recruits with strippers and hookers.

If Dawkins is a bad guy with info about Wade/offers...wouldnt the plea deal be a bad thing?
Yes. But WILL WADE IS NOT THE TARGET THEY’RE LOOKING FOR!

He's gone. Too much damage just in the tapes out already and who only knows what's coming out later. Dump him and let's move on!

Lol so you think we won't get sanctioned because the NCAA doesn't have enough manpower to investigate all schools and coachs involved throughout the ncaa...
The NCAA will not stand for anything like those transcripts coming out and not do something about it... Do you think they would open there self up to those kind of hyprocratic accusations... If that's a term. I mean they wouldn't be doing there jobs if they let it go... It's yahoo's leak that screwed us.. If they didn't leak it and Dawkins plead out, we would be fine. Go ahead and be pissed at them more than any.

NCAA and compliance wanted in the meeting because they have nothing is my conjecture. They wanted Coach Wade to incriminate himself, perjure himself, or both so they MIGHT be able to come up with something credible or concrete to nail him as well as LSU.
Why do you think they refused him counsel and refused to give him the questions?

If you want to get downvoted just tell it like it is. If you just give ur honest opinion and see things for what they are ,so far ,then you will be told to go commit suicide.

He still won't be able to explain away the tapes to LSU admin, even if he doesn't testify. Same result.
He doesn’t have to. The NCAA nor LSU have these tapes in their possession and probably never will nor have they even heard them. All they have is a “leaked transcript” of a supposed tape.
All Will has to say is “I didn’t do it”.

1. LSU has NOT received an LOI from the NCAA. There is no NCAA investigation into LSUMBB.
2. I will repeat: nothing on the supposed transcript that YahoosSports has released clearly indicates that WW broke an NCAA rule. You can SPECULATE what WW meant by "offer" but it does not say illegal inducements at all. And the reference to NBA rookie minimum is a joking reference to what UK was supposedly offering Smart which is why WW called Dawkins in the first place.

How do you know

Because NCAA LOI's are public records documents.

please explain that thought process. Dawkins taking a plea means nothing. Wade still needs to meet with LSU. Something illegal within the NCAA rules still could have taken place.
Agree with you Lester, but cross examination under oath in a criminal trial is vastly different than a meeting with LSU. With the Criminal trial wrapped up, so is Wade’s involvement with it. The NCAA has no transcript of his testimony, good or bad. Wade and his attorney’s would have more comfort in allowing Wade to meet with LSU under these conditions, in my opinion.

Let's say Dawkins makes a plea deal. That leaves the NCAA with little to nothing to mount an investigation.
They will not use an unconfirmed article with an unnamed source as the impetus for an investigation. They would have to have the actual tapes in their hands and that leaves us asking why would a federal law enforcement agency turn over criminal evidence to a private organization?
It would be as if one of us was inadvertently caught on tape during an FBI investigation and the FBI gave the tape to our employer.
