Can anyone provide a sensible answer to this basketball question?

What's the real difference between WW and BP? Other than BP is still in the mix for natty, and WW is just... well, not sure WTF he's doing other than being hush.

I ask the question because 95+% of this board blasts WW for cheating, which I understand why. However, how many wins and titles has BP had to vacate in his head coaching career?

none. He was also never taped talking about paying a player. The situations aren’t comparable at all.

One is about to get an extension.


One is about to get fired.

Bruce has had 0 wins vacated and was caught lying about a barbecue (thanks to VOLS AD Mike Hamilton for serving him up on a platter to the NCAA).

Will Wade was caught on a wiretap with the main suspect of a federal investigation.

As in their coaching styles?

Zero comparison. I am sure pearl has his recruiting tactics just like everyone else, but the violation he committed is nothing comparable to what we know of the Wade situation.

One difference:

WW: 1-2 in the NCAA tournament, never coached past round of 32 obviously

BP: 15-9 in the NCAA tournament, 5 Sweet 16, 2 Elite 8, and 1 Final Four

Great responses and surely he's clean as a whistle. No reason he was ever docked $1.5mil in pay over a 5yr period, banned from off post recruiting and I believe he was suspended for 8 games that year.

Maybe Ole Joe will bring him to LSU.

BP
- snitched on a coach for cheating
- gave a kid food at his house
- lied about it
- had one assistant accept bribes to talk current players into leaving the team
- had another who knowingly went along with his previous employer's being bribed to put unqualified students on the team

For those keeping score at home, that's:
- one count of "shady, but literally the opposite of cheating"
- two counts of "assistants actively working to make their teams worse"
- one count of "that's legal now anyway"
- one count of "yeah, probably shouldn't have done that"

WW
literally caught on tape talking about paying recruits large sums of money to come to LSU

I don’t think anyone stated he was clean as a whistle, just perhaps not in the same realm of ignorant as Wade for being recorded talking about a ‘strong arse offer’. That is no one’s fault but Wade and Wade alone, y’all really need to stop projecting his stupidity onto others.

And Joe can probably shove it because why in the hell would Bruce even consider going from Auburn to LSU?

No one ever said he was clean.

He just never had any games vacated.

Over what? I think the word 'melt' in this place is the modern day version of 'dude' or 'bruh' or maybe it's your deflection word.

Well this is breaking news, last I checked there is no investigation of Will Wade taking place.

You are melting. You started the OP with the assumption that BP was as big of a cheater as your disgraced coach and almost every response has proven otherwise. Your response is “I’m sure he’s clean as a whistle”.
They aren’t the same. My coach is coaching a Final Four game Saturday and yours is still in deep shite...if he’s still your coach.
Sorry you don’t like that.

Listen I really don’t care about what excuses you coonasses have dreamt up for Wade this week, or whatever you come up with in the following weeks
