Cough…

I did and I watched the press conference. He didn’t even use the word illegal once during the intro speech or during the questions after.

He didn’t say that, sorry, the proof is in the link

Woodward put LSU in the current situation. Look at all elite head coaches the SEC has added since Wade left. And then there's McMahon
We can and should demand better

Maybe the AP interviewed him separately at another time or something. The other quotes in the OP were from the press conference but the one you just posted isn’t.

Just listened to the entire press conference. He didn’t say that or anything close to it.
The AP interview transcript isn’t available to read to determine the context of his answers. But you can clearly see after watching the press conference that the article takes most of his comments out of context.

I’d call it odd but it is the media

It wasn’t during the press conference … it was during an interview with the AP:
But of course you’ll accuse the AP of being dishonest.

During a later interview with The Associated Press, Wade also refused to use today's changed climate in the sport — with allegations of payments tied to Wade's LSU ouster essentially legal now with college athletes allowed to profit from their fame — as a pass.
“That to me is a cop-out," Wade told the AP. “When I was doing that, it was illegal. Just because it’s legal now doesn’t mean it was the right thing to do then. And I think that’s the way that some people rationalize some things, but that’s not the reality of what it was. It wasn’t right to do then and, you know, I paid for it.”

He did a later interview with the AP and he absolutely said it. Sorry girls. GAME OVER.
Posted on 3/25/25 at 8:17 pm to tiger81
Could you link the transcript of the interview? Or do we just have to rely on the reporter’s editorializing?

Refusing to admit defeat on his bad hire is the problem.

Weird when people who obfuscate information accuse someone posting facts of lying. Not really weird though, I’m used to it now.

Now you're prolly dead on with this one...

The AP is 100% dishonest—probably one of the most biased reporting agencies in the United States. There’s a reason they were banned from the Oval Office press conferences.

Just read the article, pretty shady
