It is actually playing out the way it was predicted. Word would leak out on Thursday with a formal release on Friday. I do not expect a press conference, but instead a short press release around 4 or 5 p.m. tomorrow, so that by Monday it will have buried behind the Masters, now Fournette being arrested, the NBA playoffs, etc. The national media will likely gloss over it.

I agree that any substantive meeting has already occurred and any "meeting" tomorrow is window dressing.

Wade ran into Alleva on campus and punched him in the face.

Some talks already taken place. They laid ground rules. Not sure why this has to be such a big deal. Our fearless,leaders sure suspended Wade in a short time why so much bs to reinstate?

Ground rules were set up yesterday. Dale Brown is only person on campus that is in sports department not scared of the NCAA. They used to do my checkups on us whenever we got top recruit. Like Dale said: why can’t a kid want to come to LSU without thinking something illegal went down. He said: in so many words freak the NCAA. Used to be you were innocent until proven guilty.

It’s Will Wade, he tanked the post season and killed recruiting on purpose. He really didn’t want us to win the SEC he’s been plotting LSUs demise since we hired him. Am I doing it right?

If that's all he was referring to, wouldn't everyone be making those same offers??

I really, really want to believe his statement in the recordings can be explained to the satisfaction of everyone.

I'm also hoping the NCAA won't want to open the can of worms it already knows is sitting on the shelf for all the blue-blood programs.

I'm convinced Wade did nothing more than what those programs have been doing for years. The difference is he got caught saying it on an FBI wire tap.

Lots of people were thinking Chaisson was going to be OK after that game. There were multiple reports that he looked ok walking around in the locker room after the game.

Oh man that's easy. The strong arse offer was the effort he put into building a relationship and convincing Smart to stay in state and go to LSU. The "sales pitch", if you will.

So, the original parameters of the meeting stay in place. This shows, with even new attorneys getting up to soeed, it was necessary. LSU admin is vindicated in its otiginal request


I was under the impression that Wades legal council was not allowed in the first meeting, which is why he declined.

First it was Alleva and FKA around 9:30 AM on March 8th then it was Wade's original legal counsel around 3:00 PM the same day that kept it from happening.

I'm surprised you didn't know that. It's been a big story for several weeks now.

Will Wade got a new legal team......duh.

Also doesn't mean Wade's first legal team was wrong. Just that Wade has adapted to the situation.

I've got a funny feeling, Wade's new attorney is orchestrating this entire process. This seems way too thought out to be coming from LSU.

Announce that a meeting is going to occur on a Friday (in reality the substance of the meeting has likely been discussed between the parties).

Have the Friday "meeting" then wait until 4 p.m. and issue a simple press release that says he is being reinstated and will continue to cooperate with any further investigation.

This minimizes news coverage and gives Wade the full weekend to lock up our 2019 class.
