The concerning part is “taking care of the mom” and “rookie minimum”

He could be talking about tutors and meal plans for all we know. Nobody can prove anything. The whole thing is a joke.

What is the "rookie minimum" in the NBA for tutors and meal plans?

The rookie minimum is like 800k. Y’all honestly think we are paying anywhere close to that?

No, I think he said it facetiously in the sense that the player was getting a nice deal

LSU fans really have catastrophe syndrome.

1/9/12 gave everyone PTSD.

Fire Wade before all the info comes out? While the team is on a historic run? Are you fricking kidding me?

There's absolutely nothing incriminating on those tapes, and the judge ruled they're not even going to be admissable in court.

LSU is not the only program being dragged through the mud right now. Duke and Kansas are dealing with it as well, and their dirt is much more incriminating than what Wade said. With that said, their wire taps aren't admissable either.

The NCAA is not going to go after Duke and Kansas, therefore they will not go after LSU. There's apparently about 12 programs dealing with this case. I'm willing to bet that the NCAA launches a makeshift investigation to appear it's doing it's job, but they'll find no wrongdoing. They'll leave the dirty stones unturned.

The worst we're going to have to deal with is hearing our loser SEC rivals calling us cheaters, and I couldn't give two shits out of a rat's arse about that.

I guess I missed it somewhere, but how did a media organization get their hands on the FBI recordings?

According to what I read, the defense leaked it intentionally as retaliation for the judge ruling them inadmissible. The defense was attempting to establish that the coaches knew about the payments.

Thanks. That’s bad luck. Wonder what other tapes they have?

They have tapes pertaining to Zion Williamson that appear to be worse than what Wade said. They're actually discussing jobs for the parents, an apartment and more!

That seems like a pretty important part. Why wouldn't all of the other media outlets reporting this include it? Is ESPN full of shite? I wouldn't doubt it.

think men's BB is going to set a record for schools under penalties. But it will not happen until the trials are wrapped up. The NCAA cannot talk to people who are under possible criminal investigation because they will clam up. When the trials are over the NCAA will be moving in to probably as many as a dozen schools, if not more.


Yeah right. I can see it all now. Duke on probation for 3 years , loss of scholarships, no playoffs , no TV . See anything wrong w/this picture ?
