Proof? Non-circumstantial and verified by anyone not named Yahoo.

If he cheated or not it makes no sense to not let him coach. If it eventually comes out that he cheated LSUs wins will be vacated regardless so you should just let him coach until everything comes out. It’s only hurting LSU by not letting him coach if it comes back that he did nothing wrong, and as said before if it did come back that he did something wrong it will be the same outcome with vacated wins.

Obviously insubordination is a fireable offense. Why haven't they fired him? Hold him accountable, right?


There's a contract. There's plenty due diligence to do before pulling that trigger. And he has been held accountable, he's suspended and not coaching.

"This matter" is a Yahoo article. (I think that LSU should be required at the very least to have listened to the tapes) .. Do you think coaches need to respond to EVERY internet article out there ? ( or just some of them and if so which ones ) .. that is the can of worms LSU has opened.. What is next ? will they have to respond to TD posts ? .. The more I think about it LSU is out of line. WW should be coaching until LSU has some direct evidence from some kind of authority (not yahoo) or evidence from some investigation LSU initiated.. to suspend a coach over an internet article seems absurd

At this point paying players isn’t really even cheating. It’s just how it’s done.

Gosh you are dumb.

Wade cheated, broke the rules.


based upon what... If you think for one moment a Yahoo article is legal proof of this I just don't even know how to respond to that...

Wade refuses to explain himself to his superiors


You clearly have trouble with facts... Wade has not refused to explain himself...

This puts Alleva and LSU in a box -


You do realize articles related to the Wades meeting came out in October of 2018. So none of this is News to Alleva and LSU Admin... So if this is all such a big deal, why wasn't this addressed by Alleva in October??

If you are going to start slinging stuff against the wall, you might as well check your facts to make sure at least some of it sticks...

So your entire thesis is undone by one major thing. If every coach in premier college basketball is paying players, and the expectation was for Wade to compete with these programs, the undisclosed part of Wade's job was to pay players.

Also, LSU has been paying players before Wade got there, what makes you think he wasn't connected to the network of guys that mediate this the moment he came on board? Alleva is privileged to be in his position because he has the option to distance himself from someone who now has negative press.

The thing I find inexcusable is for Alleva to throw his guy under the bus for doing something that Alleva knew was going on. The thing that sickens me the most is the true colors of this coward come out the moment there is some national heat. We have an AD who is a cuck that refuses to sack up and stop playing second fiddle for once.

And here is the other very understated point that needs to be shouted from the mountain tops. Not only did Alleva know what Wade was doing (allegedly), but he probably was fine with it....until the article came out then it was a complete shock to him...LOL. Please. He and the other clowns want the moral high ground but there is none here to claim.

We blame him for many situations.

All 3 basketball hires. If you want to blame wade then that’s fine. That makes 3 busts in a row.

The jimbo stuff

The handling of miles. Completely disrespected and toyed with him.

Charging for parking.

The list goes on. The wade thing is the straw that broke the camels back. You people who think our sustain for the administration started with Will Wade are ignorant and I really don’t see how you can call yourself a fan...

Yet no one on this board is holding WW even the slightest bit responsible.
Responsible for what? Even if it is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that WW had a player paid, I find it really difficult to get upset with him. Why? Because every team at the top does this. If you're going to say the (currently) circumstantial evidence damns Will Wade well then I can show you a hell of a lot more evidence that is damning of other high profile teams and universities. The only difference here is Alleva screwed us where other universities didn't screw themselves. This isn't some big moral issue. I want a level playing field. If that means Wade doing what other teams do then I'm good with it and the NCAA can E.A.D.

Excellent post. You nailed a lot of points that IMO have been underrepresented here since this all broke.
