Yahoo: FBI sent agents to BR to investigate Wade’s recruiting tactics after suspension

After LSU coach Will Wade's indefinite suspension from the school on March 8, FBI agents were in Baton Rouge investigating his recruiting tactics, multiple sources told Yahoo Sports. That included a Louisiana-based FBI agent active in Baton Rouge the following week, conducting in-person work regarding Wade.
The FBI made clear its interest was speaking specifically about Wade, according to a source. The FBI's interest in Wade's recruiting tactics could potentially signal an expansion in the federal basketball corruption case. An FBI agent who was in Baton Rouge declined comment when reached by Yahoo Sports. The agent referred questions to New Orleans field office public affairs specialist Craig Betbeze, who did not return multiple requests for comment. Nicholas Biase, spokesman for the Southern District of New York, declined comment.

Yeah this doesn’t make any fricking sense. Why would the FBI care about Wade’s recruiting tactics?

In addition I’m wondering if Joe Alleva has his balls cuffed. Second report in 2 days that Munson has commented and not Alleva, which is unusual.
Munson gave a quote to Delly yesterday as well. Either Joe is on his way out or he’s had his public relations responsibilities stripped (finally).

“If the FBI has been in town, we are not aware of it,” LSU senior associate athletic director Robert Munson said in a statement. “The University has not been contacted.”

Seems like an irresponsible use of federal resources.

Another unconfirmed smear piece from yahoo. Color me shocked

Shouldn’t the FBI be more concerned about other things than worry about what a college basketball coach in Louisiana does?

Shouldn’t the FBI be worried about the $30M wasted on the Mueller report rather than college basketball?

Why would the FBI now suddenly care? This is BS.

It has become blatantly obvious- Will Wade must have banged Pat Forde's wife. Personal vendetta.
Potential progress reported yesterday and now Yahoo releases this? Convenient timing. I call bullshite.

So the FBI was talking to a witness that is involved in a federal case?
Once again the media, and specifically Yahoo, are trying to make it sound way worse than it is.

In case WW had any thoughts about actually testifying favorably for the defense, the agents let you know they’re hanging around and waiting to ask questions. Scare tactic by the Feds.

Get this unconfirmed shite off our board. Delete this and go to bed

So, FBI has had the wiretap and didn't do anything until Yahoo published a story, yeah not buying. The more likely scenario is Wade was subpoenaed for trial by the defense, so the FBI interviewed him to see what his testimony might be.
These dumbasses have a serious issue with Wade, but this is a huge stretch.

There have been hundreds of recruiting scandals and the FBI has never shown interest. Why now? Outside of possible IRS issues, what is the federal interest?
