"the shoe companies control the entire sport"
What does this mean? They control it with "money," right? You said so.
So, do you approve of WW participating in this unethical behavior?
Well, you said "So if we want Wade to take on the sport of basketball in the name of ethics and try to reinvent the wheel so to speak, see how far he gets doing it."
This CLEARLY means that you want WW to participate in this unethical behavior and NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Right?
You can't have it both ways (unless you are a hypocrite).
1. You admit that college BB is corrupt (from your statement about how the shoe companies CONTROL (with illegal money) the sport.
2. You do not want WW to do anything about it ("see how far he gets doing it").
3. I should not point out corruption when I see it because I (as an outsider with no clue) don't understand that this is how college BB works ("To watch people who have no clue how college basketball recruiting works lecture us and condemn Wade based on ethics is laughable.").

Look I really don’t want to read 14 pages but can someone just tell me:

Is he gonna get fired?

Duck I hope not. Our recruiting class is so sick for next year AND EVERYONE frickING CHEATS.

And there’s really no evidence he did, just circumstantial honestly if we’re getting lawfully technical.

So after all of this, we have 0 evidence directly implicating Will Wade. It is hearsay at best and from my perspective nothing more than CBB coaches making the exact same kinds of comments that we fans make on the Recruiting Board whenever we lose out on a big time recruit

Really? I don't think so.
BTW....sounds like you think cheating is OK.

Well, people get convicted (and sent to prison) every day on nothing but circumstantial evidence.

If everyone else is, absolutely.

There’s nothing inherently bad about paying players. It’s just a rule the NCAA has that they selectively enforce.

You’re simply a gossip queen. You can’t provide a single example of Wade’s guilt or a single example of me saying I support corruption. Taking a statement and twisting it to mean something completely unrelated isn’t proof it’s a lie. And you claim people are convicted this way lmfao. You’re pathetic and you have the mind of a child.

Let’s destroy your allegations one by one so maybe you’ll stop embarrassing yourself.

1- “saying I approve of Wade’s behavior means I approve of corruption.” You haven’t offered any proof of any wrongdoing so how is that corrupt? Gossip isn’t proof in the real world little boy.

2- “Wade participating in a corrupt system proved I support corruption.” Just how stupid are you? This would mean any LSU or coach at all who coaches college basketball is corrupt and watching college basketball means you are in favor of corruption.

3-“ if Wade doesn’t take on the NCAA and I still support him I support corruption.” So do you and everyone you know because you’ve never complained before Wade but the same system was in place.

4- the other 2 accusations are just flat out lies you made up.

You’re a fricking moron who has zero grasp of the real world on any level. Your theories and explanations look like a 4th grader came up with em and you can’t even answer the simplest questions on the subject you rant about all hours of the day.

“How do you know things have been settled?”

Because there is no investigation into LSU basketball going on and never was. Wade was questioned about comments involving an investigation into “Christian Dawkins” not LSU basketball and there was no subsequent investigation that came after that information was vetted. This stuff with HBO is not new it’s from last spring.

Paying college athletes a fair wage for their athletic services is the opposite of unethical. WW is a goddamn modern day Robin Hood.

Page 14 and Irish still hasn’t produced a shred of evidence Wade even bought a cheeseburger for a player

I'd be more concerned about Wade being unable to break the top 25 at the end of the season.

He needs to become a recruiter and let the coaches coach the players.

Added: He can stay head "coach," but he needs to let his assistants actually coach.

Johnny Jones 5 years: win pct- 55.6%, 46.7% SEC win pct., 0 SEC titles (tied for worst SEC record in program history) 1 NCAA tourney appearance

Will Wade 3 years: win pct- 67.8%, 66.7% SEC win pct., 1 SEC title 2 NCAA Tourney bids. (Best start for any coach in LSU history and best 2 year stretch at LSU in 35+ years)

This is not about Coach Jones v. Wade.

It is about all the big talk and big promises of the Wade fans.

He couldn't even make the Top 25 this year, even with his "big offers."

With all the Wade hype, he needs to be in the top 16 year and year out. Or, his fans can shut up and quit acting like he is the greatest coach.

And we’re now in year 3 and you’ve yet to tell us what this “big talk” was from Wade. The truth is you made it up and Wade was in the top 25 this season multiple times, he finished 2nd in the SEC, our best back to back seasons in over 35 years and is off to the best start in LSU history. We’ve already won an SEC title in his second season then finished 2nd after losing our 2 best players so what promise hasn’t he kept? More made up BS from you. Maybe if your idol hadn’t left him with the worst record in program history he may already have 3 instead of 2 straight NCAA tourney bids. What Wade has done to start his career at LSU is unprecedented, so you pretending he isn’t measuring up to the standard when he’s actually surpassed it is just more of your dishonest and idiotic nonsense. You really think anyone believes you when you say this isn’t about Johnny Jones lol? You’re the worst basketball poster we have and that’s saying something for a fanbase with Irish in it.

winning the SEC in year two after the complete dumpster fire Jones left the program speaks to his ability as a coach. Finishing second this year was a successful year with what recruits are coming next year the future is bright. You’re upset Jones was a terrible coach
