Although LSU freshman guard Javonte Smart has been cleared to play, head coach Will Wade has not been reinstated and remains suspended.

On Friday, Jacques Doucet with WAFB got this explanation as to why Smart was cleared but not Wade:

What offer? The university is going off a Yahoo report. And the information in the Yahoo report does not any offer that would be a violation. Scholarships are "offered" all the time

Finally got our hoops team back into contention and the brass is gonna run Wade off. I've been saying since about 2010 that FKing and Alleva gotsta go.

"Smart cooperated fully, Wade has not" say LSU officials. However, concerning the OLOL audit, LSU officials say, "As this is also an ongoing legal matter involving other parties, investigators have requested LSU have no further comment". So it's OK for LSU to follow legal counsel advice but not Will Wade?

LSU needs to place LSU on suspension until LSU cooperates.

Wade has a contractual obligation to talk with LSU. There is a difference.

All LSU had to say was we are offers are made to thousands of student athletes every year. We are not jumping to conclusions until after the trial is over or more information is obtained.

That’s assuming LSU admin are actually smart, savvy, and have any sort of leadership. They don’t, so here we are.

And how do they know an "illegal offer" was made? The transcript doesn't say this. They must have more that has not been made public because nothing in that transcript constitutes anything illegal or in violation of NCAA rules.

So basically the only thing that needs to happen is someone needs to allege that Alleva or F King did something illegal, for yahoo to pick it up, then tweet about it and boom see ya later?!?! Well what are y'all waiting on. This was an anonymous source that got WW's job so you could also stay confidential. Then they'll see how easy it is. Or for that matter lets go after Saban for football then Kentucky and Florida for basketball. All it takes is one anonymous source. These days you don't even need to substantiate the details. Just tell lies and they run with it. Well this shouldn't be hard to play ball the way!!! All it takes is a little digging, a little investigating, get some proof and get behind the scenes digging up dirt.

Please somebody #metoo Alleva! After white knighting for that crackwhore at Duke, Alleva would have to purge himself if he’s ever merely accused of anything.

Every day i get more and more angry about LSU’s administration. It’s really gonna take fans boycotting this university for s change to be made. We also need to get rid of our crazy eyed governor and all BOS who are not LSU grads. F them all!

Wade has to be dumb as a bag of rocks for offering to buy a player on a phone call.

Wade will be the next UCLA coach. He wants to be part of an organization that stands up for him and not throw him under the bus 5 miles before the bus even arrives.
