re: Years ago, I would have said “Fire Wade.” No more. It’s all corrupt.

So you don’t think WW did anything wrong. You just don’t like the way “you think” he did it.
The fact is that his interests and LSU's interests are not the same right now. LSU should have a coach who is in a position to be on the same page at all times. No hard feelings, but bye, Willy.

He absolutely did. He left a direct, easy to follow trail to LSU.

Three SEC titles and a Final four in the 2000's, the best decade in program history. A general step back in the 2000's, not nothing unsalvageable.
a final four every 30ish years and an sec title about once per decade. that's a decent program. if that's what we're going for, fine. i'm also fine with LSU aiming higher and doing what it takes to get there. again, this is louisiana.

Keep trying to shite on LSU basketball to make your point.
is it shitting on the program? or is it maybe possible that we're historically an average basketball university? we can go back to that, no problem. it appears that the administration is fine with that. i just don't think it would be crazy if they were to try something different and embrace the sleeze. yet again, this is louisiana. that's one of the things we're actually good at.

quote:That's bad... for LSU.
Wade isn’t suspended for paying players. He’s suspending for not showing up for LSU.
Wade is subpoenaed to testify in a federal trial.
His employer (LSU) has suddenly demanded that he sit down and meet with them about... what, his upcoming testimony? But he's likely under court orders to NOT discuss this.
So, they suspend him. Have they fired him for breach of contract? Nope.
So, what is this demand, and then suspension, if not intimidation and coercion?
I think he's going to sue LSU after this all is over, and most likely win. They shouldn't have done anything, unless they had grounds to terminate with cause... which they didn't.

In the previous decade, the program showed utmost compliance, suffered sanctions, and won three conference titles and made the Final Four with coaches who weren't heavily sought after. In other words, relatively recently, LSU had its best decade in program history with one hand tied behind its back. Currently the only thing standing in the way of another decade like that is the legal baggage Beaver Cleaver has brought before the end of year 2.

Sure you are. You haven’t brought anything new to the board. You just react to every leak and rumor in the administration’s favor no matter what that leak or rumor is. You don’t know shite.

None of this has anything to do with me. Let's not make me a topic of discussion.
At any rate, Wade didn't meet his boss's demand, so he was suspended. When you don't meet a boss's demand, you face the possibility of suspension. It's how stuff works.

we'll just have to agree to disagree.
LSU isn't in the top 50 in all time wins (6 other sec schools are).
LSU's all time win percentage is just above .500
LSU has had random great seasons and made 4 final fours. that's commendable. but LSU hasn't been a magnet for great basketball coaches and i understand people wanting to bend over backwards to keep one that looks promising.

He's not. There's no gag order.
It's pretty damn important to know the extent of Wades involvement.

I agree, they should have never suspended WW and should have played Smart because if they end up facing infractions it won't matter anyway. The season, wins and championship will be forfeited if they find wrongdoing.
