re: I think Scott firing WW to save the football program is a bunch of BS.

When he was reinstated years ago a clause was put in his contract where he could be fired for cause if it was eventually learned he was lying to the leaders at LSU. There's your answer, and that's been spoken about at length by a number of people.
So what, you fire someone that made your basketball program relevant again just because you can do it and not owe a buyout?
How about stick by the guy, because the last 2 coaches were absolutely horrific and you finally found someone that was going to do whatever it took to make the program successful.
You fricking clowns want to know why so many here stand by Wade? Because he is one of the few people that wanted our basketball program to succeed as much as we do.
Now we are back to it taking a backseat behind baseball and football, which is an absolute travesty because March Madness is the best postseason in any sport. Not to mention the profits blow boring arse baseball out the water when the team is actually good

How's that not an answer?
The question was "based on what," and that's based on the countless people that reported part of the reason Wade was let go is because he lied to the face of LSU higher ups time and time again and when the NOA was delivered that brought all the lies to light LSU was rightfully pissed.
I like Will Wade as much as anyone, but the way the wool is pulled over some of your eyes is unreal. Completely incapable of seeing the truth.

Go search my comment history and go see how vocal I was when he was fired. I hated it. But I'm also not blinded to the point that I can recognize the multitude of reasons he was fired. It wasn't just one thing. Some of them weren't even in his control, some of them were completely in his control. Not even saying I agree with his firing, obviously I wish he was still here rather than the dumpster fire that is currently LSU basketball. But to act like LSU wronged the guy is just moronic.

It’s not an answer because there’s zero substance to it. It’s your fantasy. You left out other amendments that are much more likely to be the reason this happened and instead have conflated two separate incidents under two different ADs that occurred. You’ve taken a non factual and made up Rant story and perpetuated it as fact.

The wool has not been pulled over their eyes … their eyes are wide open and they couldn’t care less what Wade did. They’ve as much as acknowledged it.

Yep, and they're fricking morons for that.

Then why don’t you enlighten us and maybe we’ll be just as outraged as you. You keep making these statements like you know exactly what’s in the contract and exactly what the NCAA can or cannot prove, but you never elaborate. Obviously you are very close to the situation and have inside knowledge that the majority do not.

There was no possible way WW could have remained the head coach at LSU.
Just like there was no possible way Bill Self could remain the Head Coach at Kansas.
There is no way Bill Self could coach Kansas to a National Championship.
There is No way Bill Self could be voted to the Basketball Hall Of Fame.
On Wednesday, Kansas announced that Self and Townsend—each facing allegations of Level I NCAA rules violations—are suspended for the first four games of this 2022-23 season.
Woody, he's our Leader.

Just posted the link so stop making straw men and false accusations.

Find where it says he can be fired for cause based on telling a lie in these amendments. I’ll wait……
The entire amendment is an agreement that LSU could fire Will Wade with cause if it was found that he committed any of the allegations that he...wait for it...denied making to F King Alexander, Alleva, etc etc.
It's literally three pages stating "you say you didn't do these things, but if we find out you did." Like come on man...
And here's the actual amendment for your viewing pleasure, and not some nola.com article:

But I warn you, it will take some comprehension skills.

Thanks for the link. It does make me question why Wade hasn’t sued for wrongful termination. Obviously nothing has been proven, only allegations of Level I or II violations. I actually think he’s trying to force the NCAAs hand by taking the McNeese job (and his AD friend may be helping him) … either issue the show cause or drop the allegations.

You’re so married to your Rant induced delusion that you’ll add and bend words to mean what you want then to. There’s nothing in there that’s any different than what I posted. What you’ve done is substituted the meaning of “allegation” to mean “violation.” Two totally different things.
Posted on 3/13/23 at 5:17 pm to 1984Tiger
It’s not wrongful termination, he agreed that any allegation pre 2019 could give them cause to fire him. The rub is everyone already knew about the situation at VCU and the Smart situation so they could’ve fired him on the spot as soon as he signed the amendment but didn’t then later used the language to fire him.

Bingo, it has nothing to do with the contrived “he lied to Woody” narrative which was originally the “he lied to Alleva” narrative that just got copied and pasted onto the new AD by Rantards.
