Any other questions?

yes. you quoted all that without understanding ANY of it. people were acting like wade refused to meet with them for no good reason which made him seem guilty. i was responding specifically to that with the article which explains WHY he didn't meet with them and it was hasty/stupid for them to suspend him without all the info and for doing something at the advice of his legal counsel.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

you keep acting smug when you are having trouble understanding what is going on. you giddily read the unsubstantiated yahoo article and took it as gospel. then started condescending to people who were trying to help you understand the situation. moreover, you have, in the other thread, specifically misquoted the article further demonstrating your lack of understanding yet, you keep treating other people like they are stupid.

look, this situation has been explained to you multiple times by multiple people in multiple threads. i'm sorry you're having trouble understanding it. what's worse is you're doubling down on stupid by going on that retarded quote fest flying right past the point being made and committing the genetic fallacy yet again by posting a screen shot of webtraffic for crying out loud. as if that's supposed to mean something.

perhaps you need to take a break from internetting for a while and try to catch up with the world

Look, Wade hasn't been fired, yet ... (he will). LSU simply suspended him after he refused to talk to his boss about the matter. He's still technically the coach for the next month or so

We may not have to pay O’s buyout

Will Wade has asked for reinstatement:

STATEMENT BY COACH WILL WADE

"This morning, I advised President Alexander, Athletic Director Joe Alleva and the LSU Board of Supervisors that I would like to resume my duties as Head Basketball Coach. Last week, when the University decided to place me on administrative leave, I accepted the decision without complaint as I knew that they wanted time to reflect on the flurry of media reports. With the benefit of a week to consider the circumstances, I believe University officials should allow me to resume my duties."

"I understand that in today’s hyper-intense media environment it is extremely difficult for any organization, particularly a public university, to stand firm in the face of rumors, leaks and innuendo. In this case, the simple truth is I have been placed on leave because I exercised my right not to submit to a joint LSU/NCAA interview on the exact same subject matter at issue in an impending federal criminal trial in New York. My legal counsel advised the University that it would be wholly inappropriate for me, or anyone, to submit to an interview under these circumstances."

"Declining to be interviewed was a difficult decision for me, as I would like to cooperate fully with all parties, particularly LSU. To be clear, however, all I’ve done is follow the prudent advice of counsel to exercise my constitutional rights to due process. Given these facts, I don’t believe it is appropriate for me to be relieved of my duties. We have a great basketball program made up of excellent student-athletes and quality coaches. The players who’ve given their all for this institution, the students and alumni who are devoted to LSU, and fans all across Louisiana and beyond deserve to see this team fulfill its destiny. I love LSU and everything it stands for. What I’m asking for is the right to do my job while exercising my constitutional rights. I don’t think that’s too much to ask."
