re: Why isn't there a deadline on Wade speaking to the Administration to save his job?

Is the basketball team just in perpetual limbo heading to the Final Four? If the Admin is so concerned about this, why is Wade allowed to just hang out there on the payroll and continue doing nothing?
Nothing makes any sense
LSU suspended Wade for 'not talking to them'.
Alleva came out post-game and said 'I wish he would talk", good or bad.
Was it premature to suspend him... that's another question entirely.
If he's now being allowed the chance to hold his silence and everyone will wait until the trial, then that needs to be clarified publicly, and he actually should be allowed to return to work in the meantime.
If you're going to hold him to the initial discipline, then some point within a month, you should move to remove him for failure to comply. Because he's 100% not complying.

how do we know there wasn’t a deadline given and it just wasn’t made public?

We're engaging in broadcast arguments with Dick Vitale over this.
If Alleva came out and said
"This is an unfortunate situation, across the board. I and the administration here have serious questions about what may have occurred, and we can not let Coach Wade actively coach the team until this is addressed.
Coach Wade has informed us that he intends to do so, but has been advised by his legal representation not to speak on the matter until after the conclusion of the trial, which will begin in April.
As such, we will allow him this in the best interests of all parties. He is and remains the head coach of LSU basketball, and will continue to remain that until such time as we deem he has violated his contract. His suspension is not disciplinary at this time, and upon the completion of the trial and his compliance with our request to discuss the situation, he will be reinstated in full.
We have communicated this with him, along with assurances that barring any improprieties- which I must stress, he has stated that none have been committed- his future here remains intact. We find it in the best interests of all parties that this is the route we must take at this time.
No further questions will be taken on this matter until after we have had the chance to sit down with Coach Wade"
Then, everyone would be calmer.

So simple.

Everyone would be calmer if Fking Alexander and Alleva were on suspension until the issue was resolved.

You not understanding why everyone is waiting until the trial doesn't make any sense. It's so simple

You need to accept that. Once you do, the list of things that should be discussed by the administration on the Wade topic during the tournament shrinks to zero.
Then why did Joe Alleva wait til after the first tournament game to open his dumb fricking mouth?

Look, there is not a single person who isn’t anxious about a resolution. But at the end of the day, I care more about getting WW back than I do about how it appears publicly. It is what it is right now. I think Alleva should be shite canned for his interview after the first round win, but anything said publicly right now could only hurt getting WW back.
If anyone at LSU wanted him gone at this point, he’d be gone. WW should not be fired because Alleva, Alexander, or anyone else botched the optics of the situation.

Ask that clown Alleva.
Guarantee he didn't think any of this through before he put it into motion.

Because I’ve seen how Joe Alleva handles these situations before. Go watch fantastic lies or read the duke lacrosse case and get back to me. The fact that he is employed here and part of these decisions is beyond sickening. He’s doing the exact same thing again.

He doesn't plan, he reacts.

But it doesn't look like he "is getting to the bottom" of anything with a suspension.
You can't get to the bottom of it until the NCAA says there is no there there.
Once the NCAA announces they have no further interest, Alleva will step to the Mike, proclaim he followed the correct procedure to protect the University, and welcome Wade back and congratulate him on a job well done.

2. With no NCAA sanctions and no real evidence of broken rules, LSU cannot fire him for cause. This is ONE reason he is suspended and not fired.
Why can’t they fire him for cause for refusing to meet and/or aid LSU with its investigation of potential violations?

Alleva must be fired either for suspending wade prematurely or for lack of oversight leading to violations.
Either way he needs to be a dead man walking

1) Fire now without cause. Pay Wade his entire buyout.
2) Wait this out and see what comes from it. If nothing, keep your coach. If it is bad, fire with cause. Pay none of the buyout.
Those are the options. 2 seems much more appealing for all parties.

None of which explains what the option of suspension accomplishes.
