Compare the Tigers to several other programs awaiting their punishments from the NCAA. Kansas is still good, but the level of players Bill Self has been able to recruit the past few years is pretty clearly a notch below. Louisville missed the tournament this year. Arizona has duct taped together a roster with transfers and overseas players while Sean Miller’s job status remains in limbo. N.C. State's last tournament appearance was in 2018.

But at LSU? It’s as if the NCAA investigation doesn’t even exist. They say the hardest part of being under the enforcement microscope is the cloud of uncertainty it casts on your program. Not at LSU, where Wade was a good enough recruiter to convince Watford, a five-star prospect, to leave the state of Alabama and come to Baton Rouge. And even with the specter of sanctions hanging over LSU, Wade also was able to get Thomas — another five-star — out of Virginia.

holy shite

and learn that Dickie V is maybe the only person in Wade’s orbit who isn't willfully ignoring reality.


That's ironic isn't it? Given Dick is and has wilfully ignored a lot of of more tangible realities of folks who have done more provable wrong for an longer period of time.

Wolken should try actually doing some work and exposing those - instead he lazily re-hashes the same allegations from a two-year old story because again - he is lazy and also it's safe to go after WW - everyone else has and they don't have to juice to bring at you some of these other names like Duke, Kansas and UNC do.

A prime example of douche bag reporters / announcers following liberal arse hear say information just to make themselves look like something. They can't reports anything with merit, facts, and accuracy.

Agree. So is Kansas. Auburn. Arizone. Duke. Alabama. And several other schools.

So unfortunately we get what we deserve. But it is instructive that there are not repeated articles about those schools.

Calipari left two schools on probation.. never a word said about it.

Anyway... huge double standard and a number of high ups in the basketball blue blood hierarchy don’t like and are scared of WW and LSU.

We should start a movement where Wolken is racist because he doesn’t want young, under-privileged black men to be compensated


That's brilliant. Seriously. Start a trend on Twitter. Some hashtag about it and go from there.

All he said was that he had made a strong arse offer. That does not a crime make.

This is what’s so funny to me. They all picked LSU to lose and when they don’t, oh my gawd they are getting all these 5*’s that they really shouldn’t be getting and Kentucky and Duke didn’t make the tournament and Louisville and Arizona suck now. frick off Wolken.

The only part I read.

quote:

Make no mistake, LSU could very well knock off No. 1 seed Michigan on Monday and advance to the Sweet 16 for the second time since the world heard him on a wiretap talking about making a “strong-arse offer” in the recruitment of guard Javonte Smart. Not only is LSU playing its best basketball late in the season, it has a good enough roster to give Michigan real problems — starting with freshman Cam Thomas, who had 27 points against the Bonnies. He’ll play in the NBA soon, as will sophomore Trendon Watford, who had 11 points and 11 rebounds here. LSU is an 8 seed in name only.

The correct defense is "he didn't do anything." "Everyone else does it" is a tacit admission that he did it. "They can't prove it" is likewise a bad defense. It is too akin to "he did it but he can't prove it."

My favorite true court story (though not mine) is the guy who came to court and told the Judge "I did it but they'll never prove it."

Everything he said was spot on! WW is a cheater and a horrible basketball coach. LSU wins because it has more talent (paid talent) than most teams it plays, not because of coaching! If you think WW is a good basketball coach, you know nothing about coaching basketball!

I have no problem with these idiots talking about it. What pisses me off is that they are inconsistent with their reporting of each coach. Some schools and coaches get a pass while Wade and LSU continues to be dragged thru the mud.
