You can't expect to coach under those circumstances.


I'm not saying he should be coaching. Actually think it is in his best interest to be suspended until the trial is over. Keeps him out of the media spotlight.

I am discussing what was presented by Jordy today. And, multiple times I have stated, "if true".

We are talking hypotheticals as we discuss what Jordy presented.

My stance is this. Wade was justified to request his lawyer be present when he was advised LSU would have their attorney present. It was reported LSU said NO.

It was reported that Wade asked for questions in advance. My stance is that this is reasonable considering he is under subpoena. (It appears many attorneys feel this is reasonable and prudent.) It was reported LSU said NO.

You believe Wade is wrong for asking for questions. I believe he is following advice of his attorney based on the subpoena or whatever reason they have.

To me, it seems reasonable for LSU to grant this request as a starting point for a conversation with Wade.

They don't have to agree to this, they can just fire him.

Again, if the reporting by Jordy is correct, it does not paint LSU in positive light IMO.

Exactly

Joe is just a guy with a boss like most of us here.

I keep hearing people say this, and you guys must not understand how journalism works. Journalists are nothing without sources.

Maybe his sources are pro alleva, maybe Jordy's are pro-wade. It's worth keeping in the back of your head, but I have no reason to believe either are reporting inaccuracies.

If the meeting didn’t happen because Wade wouldn’t show up without knowing what they were going to ask, that is a separate issue that is on the Wade camp.




Do you realize that letting Wade know what'll be asked would serve both parties' interests if the objective is to reduce the university's exposure to legal action?

Does he really need to explain it to you?

Wade avoids surprise questions and the University gets its meeting and gets to pretend it did its due diligence.

Sure it does. How is that not to both parties' benefit?

Wade avoids ambush- which appears to be his primary concern
LSU gets their meeting- which they want so that they can pretend they investigated this

Firing the coach won't make the crimes go away,

I understand your point, except Wade has not been fired. He was suspended.

There is no denying the conversation captured on wiretap looks bad. Until it can be explained by Wayne, suspension is appropriate IMHO. And Wade so far has only said he understands why LSU took that action, but the tapes don't explain the whole story. The full explanation won't occur until after Dawkins trial or plea deal-- if ever.

That has nothing to do with exposure to legal action.

But we all sit here and take that an article from Yahoo is the truth. Maybe it is...but maybe it isn't.

And we can't judge one way or the other until we hear WW's side. So far his only public comment is basically-- I understand why LSU did what it did, but wait till all the facts are out to see whole picture. This is not a vigorous denial. It is not an explanation. It advances nothing by way of helping us understand the real story. So, until we hear from Wade, we are all guessing and imagining.

This all boils down to the BOS and company did not want to work with Wade. They were looking for an out to fire Wade for cause. If they were backing Wade and the basketball program, they would have conducted the meeting and investigation internally and left it at that. Instead they freaking call the NCAA and invite them to the first meeting with their head basketball coach.

Its obvious, the BOS acted rationally due to the report from the media. As soon as they heard/read the report, they began distancing themselves from Will Wade. IMO, regardless of the outcome with Coach Wade and the NCAA and FBI situation, the BOS at LSU will force Will Wade out.

I've said from the beginning that WW was a fool to have this conversation over a phone, and worse, his phone.

Man , you guys are some dumb sons of bitches. WW could have been calling from a phone booth in China, & the conversation would still have been recorded. It wasn't WW being taped , but the player's handler/healer/adviser/leech.
