I said three years ago, I hoped Woodward would be fired over firing Wade.

He should have resigned if he was too righteous to keep a coach that "cheated"

Wade did himself in. If you lie to your boss and refuse to cooperate you get fired.


Wade committed a terminable offense that is directly stated in his contract. Thou shalt not lie to the NCAA and shall cooperate with any investigations. He told the NCAA and LSU he would answer their questions after a certain date and continued to coach. That date came and he renegged on advice of counsel...

I dont know how the idiots on here that defend him because he won dont understand that when your contract says do this and you are fired for cause and then you do it anyway...

“Everyone” wasn’t saying anything. “Everyone” was always divided on this. Nice straw man.

The recruitment conversation transcript was pretty damning.

And before you justify by saying “everyone” does it,,…..not everyone. And more importantly, he got exposed. Can’t get around that.

Up until like a week ago, everyone blamed Will Wade for the whole FBI debacle and said that Woodward was given no other option but to fire him. Now magically everyone on here loves Will Wade and blames Woodward for ruining the basketball program. Funny how that works....


This is the new rant. Move where the wind blows

Speak for yourself. I have been raving about Wade’s firing since it happened.

Will Wade FBI
quote:

A 2017 phone conversation intercepted by the FBI between LSU coach Will Wade and basketball middleman Christian Dawkins features Wade speaking freely about a “strong-arse offer” he made in the recruitment of a prospect, Yahoo Sports has learned.
The player being discussed is Javonte Smart.

The NCAA investigated Smart's recruitment and found no wrongdoing and was subsequently cleared by the NCAA to continue playing.

The article (Pat Forde) is making assumptions that turned out to be incorrect. Forde continued to recycle that article every March, even though he knew it to be erroneous.

You need to watch the special they did about all of this. I think it was on HBO Max.

The entire investigation was complete bs and a total waste of tax payer money. They spent millions and didn’t get anything of substance.

Complete embarrassment by the FBI. Between that and the Crossfire Hurricane, I’m glad they cleaned out alot of these dirty mofos.
