I hope you're right. My fear is that it when people hear Wade saying the things in the transcript that it will have a bigger impact.


How so?

The NCAA already has the transcript.

Fans of LSU basketball don't care "if" Wade did what is insinuated he did because they are smart enough to know that ALL major players in college basketball do the same thing. You can't recruit AAU players unless you are willing to do so.

Fans of opposing teams will continue to hate Wade. So what? They can also continue to be losers.

The media will virtue signal...then write stories bemoaning the quality of college basketball. They'll soon find some other story to overhype and move on. Hell, one day they might even oversell the impact of a virus and shut down the American economy and society. I hope not, but you never know!

I'm saying it may have a bigger impact on people's opinion if they actually hear Wade say the things on the transcript. Then, there may be more public and media outcry against him than there was to just the Yahoo report.

Maybe everyone in the sports world will latch onto the perceived special treatment for NBA players in getting COVID-19 tests, while the general public has to prove that they licked a sick person's forehead, in China, within the last 72 hours.

My favorite is Jay Bilas getting worked up over this only to tweet 5 minutes later how college athletes should be paid

Why was wade paying 300 for naz Reid, when Arizona would only give him 120 max
I'd love to know what all these players really get

Vitale is that guy. The guy who gives all donations of his book to charity but has to blad about it. And here he is again, this time donating his time for misfortune. I hope he comes and does and LSU game next year but he and the network are not gonna let that happen.

Almost every major program does pay players to some extent. If the NCAA was serious about cleaning this mess up they would give will wade, Sean Miller, and anyone else lifetime bans to scare other coaches. Oh and find dirt on Coach K as well

Well the Nets paid a private lab to do the tests, which any of us could technically do too... most just can't afford the $3k to get the test

Assume it's the same in the Gobert test, but once he's positive then yeah they're gonna test anyone he's had contact with (wonder if all those reporters got tested too since he put germs all over their mics)
