I'm equally unsure of what's hard to get that this does absolutely nothing positive for LSU.
the coach is on tape talking about deals for a high school player that ended up at the school. Not sure what positives you are looking for here.

Fricking guilty until proven innocent.

Its more of a public relations issue at this point with the way it has caught fire with the media. They have to protect the university and its standards. Give them a few days and they can see what type of evidence they are working with, and hopefully reinstate him if it doesnt prove to be something they feel is incriminating in the long run. I think then you'll see then stand behind him if it calls for it. You just can't stand behind him now knowing this could go sour. They'd look like fools.
Yeah this is pretty much how I feel. We dont need him right now. Let them sort through the shite.
Also as a fan base we MUST stop acting like this is absolutely no big deal.

FBI is investigating fraud in college basketball.
They have proof Will Wade offered a player money, from the wiretap.
I screwed up in how I worded it. I own that. My bad - I apologize.
But y'all saying he didn't do anything are hilarious.

i get it's your thing to be the contrarian dumbass here, but are you just ignoring what I've been saying?

He will not be proven innocent ...you cannot prove a negative. I doubt he will be back. Waters NAZ Smart will go to pro ball.

We could still have our coach for the remainder of the season? That seems like a positive. The NCAA is going to do what they will. This doesn't do shite to help us in that sense.

The positive is that it is the least incriminating evidence of ALLLLLL the other coaches and players who were doing the exact same thing. Yet only one coach is suspended.

This guy could fill in for you all.

That sounds great from a fan's perspective.
Terrible idea from an executive's perspective.

Go on... You think acknowledging that youve known about the tapes for months and just now getting around to suspending him before the last game of the season will help us out at all if the NCAA wants to deep dick us? Good god, man.

Then why are none of these other schools with equal amounts of evidence against them suspending anyone? Probably because they aren't headed by an incompetent moron.

You serious? They have way more than the word "offer."
"The problem was, I know why he didn’t take it now, it was (expletive) tilted toward the family a little bit. It was tilted toward taking care of the mom, taking care of the kid. Like it was tilted towards that. Now I know for a fact he didn’t explain everything to the mom. I know now, he didn’t get enough of the piece of the pie in the deal.”

Sean Miller got suspended. Reinstated after a week, from what i understand.

NCAA lost their shite when we beat Kentucky, Tennessee and Florida. The release of this wiretap isnt coincidental. They want to put an asterisk by the side of LSU before the tournament starts. Keep us in our place.
Who believes the NCAA hasn’t seen the taps on all these other programs?

It would have fallen out of the news cycle by the weekend.
Instead Alleva and King just parked a tanker truck over the small campfire.

you thinking Smart gets suspended or what?
I think there's a very strong possibility that he does. If either he plays or Wade coaches and wrongdoing is proven, LSU would have to forfeit it's victories. Suspensions now could eliminate tournament forfeitures - if LSU is even allowed to participate in the tourney.

right, and assuming he is offering illegal benefits... he lost out on recruits too. What does that tell you about the programs we are losing the recruits to? They are offering more.
If he goes down, I hope he goes scorched fricking earth on the blue bloods.
Wade's only real violation is doing this at a school not named UNC, Kentucky, Kansas, or Duke.
