The irony of the Wade/LSU vs CoachK/Duke is sickening.

A tape emerges with coaches discussing what Zion Williamson wants and housing is specifically discussed. Williamson's family ends up in a million dollar home near Duke.

In the Smart case, LSU did what they called an exhaustive investigation and there was no evidence found of improper benefit after a tape of Wade emerges with NO SPECIFIC IMPROPER BENEFITS MENTIONED.

LSU demands an interview with the Coach with the NCAA present. Duke does not.

The Irony is that Duke is lucky enough to not still have the son of a ##### that hangs coaches and players out to dry as athletic director.

The conversation was with a Kansas coach, not Duke coach for Zion's demands.

Not that I'm saying Zion didnt get paid bigly to go to Duke, he and his family obviously are benefiting if he turned down what Kansas was offering. Just saying nothing has come out on Duke specifically.

Chance favors the aggressor. Duke proactively rid itself of its problem. LSU welcomed Duke's problem.

The point is there was EXPONENTIALLY MORE evidence that actual improper benefits were involved than Wade/Smart. In the latter there was NO SPECIFIC OR ALLUDED TO IMPROPER BENEFIT DISCUSSED and an exhaustive investigation by LSU found no improper benefit was received.

The same university that hires 4 people from Illinois to 6 figure jobs and they do not move here or pays a Veterinary professor for 2 years and he had not shown up for work in that time.

Pretty sure LSU did that for Duke since Alleva left Duke for LSU, not because he was fired. Now, he may have seen the writing on the wall, but he was not fired.

On a similar note, one of you bags has been doing work on Wikipedia

The NCAA doesn’t care. It’s all a sham.

See Dukes AD isn’t a huge pussy. They used to have a dick-nosed, spineless coward for AD but some arse backwards SEC school ran by an Ambulancer Chaser decided that hiring his dumbass was a good idea.
