Appears that cheating is OK with these fans as long as you win.

In case you didn’t notice the court is named after the only coach who got us put on probation and Johnny Jones was also implicated from the infamous “pay sheet” so the program itself is ok with it as well.

I guess this might be a bit like letting you know Santa Claus doesn't exist, but if you cheer for LSU in any major sport they have ALL cheated to one degree or another. That's simply the nature of the "business"

Will Wade got caught. That was his mistake. If you believe that other programs getting the best recruits weren't paying them, I have some swampland to sell you.

I am losing confidence by the game in McMahon. As has been said by others, his teams appear to be underperforming the talent they were supposed to have. Other coaches in similar positions to him seem to be doing more. I wish him luck, but there is always next year.

I didn’t read the whole thing.

But this is year 1 of an absolute, complete, from ground up rebuild.

Simehow, you didn’t realize that.

I say hire Shaq as the head coach to bring some fire back into the program. Just look at Deon Sanders and what he’s doing at Colorado.

If you had a spare 100 bucks you just had to bet today on the game, Vols or LSU 11.5 points either way?

Ehhhhh. Overall college basketball players are hired guns and really only at any place for at best now 2 years. If they show any potential, the go and declare for the NBA . Some languish in the G League and some are headed for part time starting stints in Turkey or Israel.

Skylar Mays and Darius Days notwithstanding .

Other than a year here and a year or two there, they've been dead since Dale Brown left...

What is cheating?
Playing by the same rules as the opposition?
When Duke signed the best PG in Louisiana, moved his Mom to Durham and gave her a "job"? Was that Cheating? Out bidding Kansas for Zion, was that cheating?
When Duke won a national Championship, Coach K was honored.
Maybe Wade was out of his league, din't know how ruthless, conniving, the NCAA is. Or maybe he was just unlucky.

In my view, Roy Williams, Coach K/Duke and Bill Self all got caught too. Everyone knows what they did, it's public knowledge. But the consequences for them are non-existent to this point or at least not at all relative to their actions.

Hell with Duke EVERYONE knows and just pretends they don't.

Yep, it was widely known that Zion’s parents were given a home in Winston Salem worth 900k. Did Pat Forde or Dick V say a peep? Nope. It was ok because it was Duke. The powers that be did not want LSU to challenge the blue blood programs and Will was unlucky/sloppy. It goes on in every successful program and is now legal.

Yep all caught, just have ADs that don’t cry about mean tweets. They understand the avarage American attention span is 2 seconds. You ignore the outrage and the next story takes over.

You either go at the media and pistol whip them like Saban or you ignore them and make them not a big deal. LSU under multiple ADs can’t learn that. Woody admitting to letting Forde influence him is a counter to any good he has done.
