I thought the Dawkins guy and the adidas guy were sentenced this week? Are there additional charges?

This is true, NCAA doesn't need proof.
There are FBI wire taps. We have no idea what they might have in other convos.
3 talks in a matter of 11 days with Smart committing on that 11th day.
Yes there aren't details in the articles, but are there details in the rest of the tapws?
What are the offers? Were they made to the family? Who is the 3rd party?
This really stinks. I don't like where this is going.
With Wade's assertion that this is really good offer, considering Smart is a 2-3 yr guy.....it looks really bad.
I hope Wade is clean. But this doesn't look good.

If this had amounts of money or gifts discussed, there would be smoke and fire. "Strong offer" can be anything.
"He will play 20 mins a night"...strong offer
Sister or brother guaranteed bball schollie...strong offer
Job inquiry for mom that she still has to interview for...strong offer.

this is all bullshite.
I believe 100% that Javonte Smart chose LSU over the likes of Duke and Kentucky because he really loves the school and his hometown!

Wade screwed up by being personally involved. That's why this could be a big deal. The big dogs don't do the dirty work, that's how people like Saban and Calipari get by with it.
You don't turn a program as quickly as Wade did without cheating a bit, its SOP in the basketball world.

This was flat out stupid. No matter what way you slice it

He could explain this away a dozen different ways. He could claim he knew Dawkins was a cheater and he was just fricking with him and leading him own. Wade could say he was just bragging, or that these middle men expect that everyone cheats, so he was just playing along.
Except, as was said a few posts ago, when he is asked the question under oath. Stakes are much higher then. He can STILL say something less damaging. But, that is very risky (if there IS anything there).
If he takes the 5th....what would LSU do? I don't know. They could support his right. But, that is a bad look.
This is not "everything"...but, it is not "nothing", either.
I'm rooting for him.

Just like you thought Prez Obama would turn the country to shite, but it’s this ignorant criminal who has no business anywhere near the oval. ??

They were tapping Christian Dawkins, not Wade. He was unfortunately talking to a guy with a tapped phone.
What a damn mess
we finally get a great coach and they immediately try to get to LSU....
coincidence ?
I am upset because I know all the big dogs cheat to get the one and dones...
a lot of the kids come from poor backgrounds, they need money to live and eat, it's a simply reality of American demographics...
a full ride doesn't really include all the expenses....
it's a problem

Both are technically violations

Anyone who remembers the 80s and 90s and is aware of this team knows the NCAA has historically had it bad for LSU. Ice Williams from Brooklyn and John Williams out of L.A. started tipping them off. Then Tito Horford scandal and into Lester Earl hammer...they've come and come strong each of the times.
I almost feel like the NCAA believes in a patient hierarchy and WW may have butt in line.

A couple things here. First not one single mention of money was discussed, second it’s a conversation, for a crime to be committed it has to be committed not talked about, third if Wade is discussing money for recruits over the phone with a shady character like that he’s an idiot, does Will Wade strike you as an idiot? He’s a detail fanatic but he’s openly discussing paying recruits over the phone in today’s climate? It doesn’t add up. Since the Kentucky game after or during every single one of our games some media outlet has put out a hit piece on the team or Wade. That’s just a fact and if you know how recruiting and the basketball hierarchy works you’d know that the blue bloods are sending Wade a message here using their minions in the media to do it. We have a ton of new basketball fans who didn’t pay attention until we started winning but the FBI was here last spring, long after these tapes were out and they found nothing. Will Wade isn’t currently under investigation.

Memphis with the Derrick Rose SAT deal. They never had proof that someone took it for him, and Memphis had their season vacated.

I always knew he was cheating because they all cheat.
