The Big Boys always skate.
In the college basketball world, LSU is a LITTLE BOY. Plus, Wade was putting together a roster that could possibly contend for a Final 4 berth next year.
That can't be allowed to happen. The "Little Boys" have to be taught a lesson.

There is STILL NO EVIDENCE!

Really? You should read more. What exactly do you think is the NCAA's definition of "evidence?" Let me help you out.....If you contact the NCAA and say you have knowledge of WW's offer (exact dollar amount, etc), THAT IS EVIDENCE.

To your knowledge has anyone done this yet?

What information? Don't confuse Dickie V's LSU hate or the rest of the media hoping for a scandal with some sort of insider knowledge.
Look Dick Vitale sucks and clearly has an irrational issue with LSU, but you think he is making up that he has a source telling him about the notice of allegations coming?

The NCAA isn’t the US Legal system but putting out sanctions for innuendo without other evidence is BS.

Correct...We certainly heard WW discuss his strong offer.

Explanation (even though it is bs): He did that to keep his contact with Dawkins, who has contacts with an array of top players and key eybl coaches.
This is hard for you to grasp, because you are dense. The more of these Dawkins types that Wade can keep giggling on the phone and saying to others how great of a guy Wade is the more it helps recruiting. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES would Wade ever cheat. No money trail, denials from all parties, what does the NCAA have. Answer that question objectively with the above scenario. We might get docked a few scholarships over a couple years, but that is iffy, and only as a weak face saving measure by the NCAA. It's possible LSU may be ok with the minor penalty to put it on the past.
Understand, I am POSITIVE all of the top players receive illegal inducements to play in college. That goes for football too, homie.
This comes down to what the NCAA can prove. You live in some fantasy world where you think you can call the NCAA and say Coach K has personally handed thousands of $ to multiple recruits over the last 35 years. That could very well prompt an investigation, but some idiot saying "I seent it" , won't cause sanctions without further proof.

Then the NCAA should "clean house." It may take some time but it must happen!

The NCAA has WW admitting a strong offer in the context of breaking the rules. Anyone with any sense knows what WW was talking about AND the NCAA DOES NOT NEED PROOF (the kind you are talking about, AKA murder trial evidence).

Or maybe the people who run the NCAA shouldn’t make billions and more money should be in the athletes hands.

According to you.

Nope. Do you have knowledge every single person having "any information" (1st, 2nd, or 3rd hand) have remained silent?

I never claimed that I did. You are the one that claimed that there was evidence against Will Wade. Now you're saying that you don't know that there is any evidence. Make up your mind.

Yes, I did. I watched the HBO special and heard WW speak. THAT is evidence. Some here do not want to accept this as evidence. Maybe not good enough for a murder trial, but MORE than enough for the NCAA.

I said I was not aware of "additional evidence." WW incriminating himself is evidence AND is enough for the NCAA.

Wrong. Here is what you said...
You said that if someone calls the NCAA that is evidence in response to someone saying that there is no evidence. Now you're saying you don't know if anyone has done this as evidence yet. Again, make up your mind.

You’re cool with the NCAA sanctioning LSU for innuendo?
Maybe take the middle part out of your account name.

So then explain how it works...does wade get the opportunity to explain/defend himself or does the NCAA just come in and say your guilty? If he gives an explanation, do they just say we don’t believe you?
I just don’t see any physical evidence other than a phone conversation. Is there a money trail? Does Dawkins have evidence of payment to wade? If so he’d be going to jail like the other coaches. Did Wade give money to Dawkins? There’s never been any report of that. The smart family was interviewed by NCAA and they reviewed the family’s bank records and cleared smart to play.
Every other instance in this story has specifics, money changed hands, people went to prison, were convicted of felonies.
Even if the give a notice of allegations, what if LSU disagrees with them just like Kansas just did?
