Auburn not mentioned. Can't be true.

LSU is fricked and LSU fans are in denial.

I'm hopeful, but still very concerned. The NCAA is so inconsistent there's no telling what's gonna happen. They've been at this for a year. It seems as if they can't find anything else or that they're finding a bunch of shite.

I hope LSU beats the rap.

The hypocrisy of the NCAA is still staggering to me.

Does anyone really?

LSU sure does get a lot of run on here for no one caring what we think.

People really think that this shite isn't happening all over the country and in multiple sports.

I honestly think basketball is the worst. I mean it is the cash cow for the NCAA. If they had given any shits, they would have done something with the AAU level a long time ago.

Please note I do not think LSU is the worst. However, they do seem a bit sloppy in execution.

Everything you posted is a bunch of bullshite trying to justify a program that cheats.


Nope. Televised sports (like the big NCAA sports and the pro leagues) are about entertaining the masses. Look at the huge event that was the Saints returning to the Superdome after Katrina. That was widely hailed as part of the healing of New Orleans.

Every spectator sport, college and pro, will be treated that way when things reopen. It will be a joyful "return to normalcy". Nobody is going to want scandals at that time.

This has nothing to do with Wade, LSU, Arizona, etc. It has everything to do with the current situation in the country.

“The problem was, I know why he (the intermediary) didn’t take it now, it was (expletive) tilted toward the family a little bit,” Wade told Dawkins. “It was tilted toward taking care of the mom, taking care of the kid. Like it was tilted towards that. Now I know for a fact he (the intermediary) didn’t explain everything to the mom. I know now, he didn’t get enough of the piece of the pie in the deal.”


This quote has already been out in the media ... last year. There is nothing new in the documentary other than Christian Dawkins calling Wade an "American gangsta."

Couldn't agree more. If Will Wade goes down he has no one to blame but himself for being so stupid.

Not worried. It's fun witnessing all of the LSU derangement syndrome though.

As I said previously, it was all 2nd hand reports and the NCAA was denied the actual tape.

Now they have the actual tape because it's in the public.

It's no longer a 2nd hand story.

They are inconsistent, but I don't see much wiggle room in this case. Maybe some super lawyer can spin it, but looks bad to me.

Serious question, do you really believe that Alabama doesn't pay for football and basketball players,just like Lsu does? Just like auburn does ,just like every power program does?

You cant be that naive. People that have been involved with these programs have consistently said that it's a 100 percent necessary evil.

I hope nothing bad happens to LSU basketball, but if it does, it does. I honestly ain’t losing any sleep over it.

Basketball season, for me, is merely something to pass the time between football seasons.

I understand some schools are avid basketball fans, and to each their own, but at the end of the day I really don’t give a shite about basketball. It has always and will always be my least favorite sport behind football and baseball.
