Keep it coming. This is almost on the TDS syndrome scale.

Why does ESPN always show replays if a missed call goes in LSU’s favor but they never show a replay of a bad call goes against LSU? It happens every game but there were a couple of times yesterday.

One was the Gaines block where he slapped the guy’s wrist. ESPN showed that in slow mo three times from different angles.

But we can’t ever get a single replay.

All they’re doing is reporting the news. Literally not a single opinion in that article

shite Wade was asked about the allegations like four times and he kept giving the same answer of not being able to comment on the ongoing situation. But that did not stop reporters from asking a different variant to the question about the allegations.

Not this shite again. That was one of the tamest fact-based articles ever written. I commend the author on being fair.

Grow up.

It is literally the same story Thamel wrote on Tuesday with the addition of LSU and Wade's statement that they cannot comment at this time.

If nothing has been released, how do they call it 'significant' or even know that there's anything at all?

How awesome would it be to announce that the investigation resulted in nothing?

What sucks, is the fact that it had to be 'nothing' for quite some time. They got so invested, I'm sure they had to come up with something to justify the time, effort, energy and resources.

This has been going on for years without any resolution. Seems queer to me.

People have jobs to do. Reporters doing their jobs and asking questions and writing reports of the news ... I have no issue with that. Let those dudes put food on their tables.

This is not like Vitale having a clear bias with no facts and just bashing a coach and a program. This article was just summing up the currently available facts on the issue.

Because Forde and Thamel's contact at the NCAA enforcement office told them to report that it is significant. This has been the NCAA's MO in this case. Attack Wade through bad PR.

For instance, when the NCAA referred the case to the IARP, it did so with a letter that made reference to all the anonymous allegations against Wade. This is the letter that Forde keeps referencing where Wade was alleged to have made arrangements for payments for 11 players. The NCAA is fully aware that these anonymous allegations cannot be used at a violations hearing, but they wanted to get that information out in the media hoping it would create enough of a cloud that LSU would fire Wade. Then, amazingly, Forde and other journalist knew exactly when to submit a public record request to LSU to get a copy of the letter making all these anonymous allegations. FYI - the anonymous allegations are coming from other coaches who lost recruiting battles, like Leonard Hamilton at FSU.

The NCAA wants to publicly go after Wade because once it gets to a hearing, there is not much evidence it can use under Art. 19.7 of the NCAA bylaws.

Wow. He had a widow’s peak added to his hair plug regimen. That is devotion.

It looks like he could seed his entire scalp by using his eyebrows.
