The rumor has been out there for some time that Trendon was being shopped. A bidding war between Memphis and LSU wouldn’t surprise me and is exactly what the Watford camp was after. If TW is bringing $250K, what is Precious being offered?

Wade and Penny are two of the sleaziest shite bags in coaching. If the NCAA doesn’t step in and hammer both programs for what anyone with a pulse knows is going on, Bama and all others should just say frick it and join in. If the NCAA thinks they can pick and choose, I’d hit them right between the eyes with a humongous lawsuit because there is public record of at least one coach in question on tape admitting to making offers for a player. Either clean it up, or step aside for the free-for-all you encouraged.

My guess is a lot less.

If you read between lines of all the anonymous quotes from coaches that were published when the Wade scandal first broke, it gives a pretty clear picture that he was stepping on a lot of other coaches toes by his "strong arse offers" going far beyond "the usual."

One gets the picture that Wade was making offers to 4/5 star borderline guys that were in access of what the #2 and #3 ranked guys were being offered by blue bloods, and/or that an LSU may have to pay triple what Kentucky would to swing the same player and Wade was willing and eager to do so.
