48 hours ago I would’ve said yes. The fact that it has dragged on this long and we tip off at noon today tells me he ain’t playing. Such bullshite. I feel for the kid

He keeps retweeting stuff about him getting on the bus, hope to hear something... I don’t know. If it were me I’d lay low if I were suspended

No.

LSU is using him as a bargaining chip to try to get Wade to resign.

It's absolutely despicable what they are doing to that young man.

No. Because I have absolutely zero faith that the LSU administration is operating in good faith regarding Javonte.

But hasn’t he been practicing with the rest of the team since the Vandy game? That suggests to me the PR geniuses in the athletic administration have been planning all along to withhold the announcement that Smart will play until just before the game so that the fans will be so happy they will let go of their anger over the inept handling of this entire thing. At least that what they think.

I'd like to say yes but when you have an administration that says they have "dozens" of people working into th he night to get him eligible, I have my doubts.

They're either lying to us or they're even more incompetent than we thought.

I personally think Javonte and team already know the answer but admins have told them to keep it under wraps. My guess is yes but admins want to play their hero card to try and gain some favor back with the fans.

Fine with it as long as it means he can play. We need his skills and leadership with Wade out.

It’s almost game time and we still don’t know a damn thing if he is going to play or not. I thought he would have been cleared by now but hopefully everything will work out.


LSU will say that the NCAA did not clear him before gametime when in fact they cannot clear him because they never said he was ineligible. LSU will use this to make it look like they are doing all they can and pass the buck to the NCAA when in reality the NCAA has nothing to do with any of this yet and it is all self inflicted.
