I am not reading all of this, but today is a great day for Will Wade, because the Shannon Forman is someone that LSU and NCAA investigators have already cleared -- someone who has already given a believable explanation for what the "strong-arse offer" was.

This means that LSU Compliance does not need to worry about something else coming out on the wiretap that will implicate Wade in Javonte's recruitment (no other third party who might have been a go-between for money). I believe this clears Wade on all worries about the wiretap.

Now, if we can get past the trial without Wade having to testify, or if the case is dismissed or if there's a plea deal, then Wade can have his little talk with Alleva and F. King and this will all be over and Wade can get back to being LSU's coach.

So if they had this, why did they sit on it until the day before we played our next game?


That’s what liberals at a liberal shitcan news source do on an attempt to have their “gotcha” moment. If anything has been proved over the past couple of years and especially the past few days it’s NEVER EVER trust the media because they have a narrative they want to make everyone believe......and that’s their narrative / propaganda only!

Q. Wondering how much you know about Shannon Foreman. He's guy in Baton Rouge, a mentor in Javonte's life. How much is he around your program and what do you know about him mentoring kids in the area?
COACH BENFORD: frick you. Who's next?

No, the obsession with blatant rulebreaking and selective enforcement continues.

Documents viewed by Yahoo Sports illuminate Forman's relationship with Dawkins.An email time-stamped at 11:02 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 20, 2016, was sent by Dawkins to ASM Sports president Andy Miller and fellow ASM employees Andrew Vye, Gabriel Ovejas and Jessica Ruffin. In the email, Dawkins provided updates on eight players, including Smart.


Do tell, Yahoo. Who are the other 7 players and why are you protecting their identities.

Yahoo Sports is the Weekly World News of the internet sports news sites. I would have loved it if Alleva had come out and said "It is Pat Forde and Yahoo sports, so I don't give a flying frick."

No decent sports outlet wanted to hire Forde, so he schleps over to Yahoo. As I said earlier, Kige Ramsay for Youtube sports is more knowledgeable and professional that Forde.

I doubt Forde is a mouthpiece for Calipari. Calipari and Forde have a very tense relationship in which Forde has written many critical pieces of Cal primarily because Forde is very close with Pitino. Hell, Forde co-wrote a book with Pitino.

Not saying there isn't an agenda but I doubt it's to do something on Calipari's behalf.
