Watching “The Scheme” on Tuesday night will be like watching the demise of a cheating coach first-hand. The NCAA will be watching. The LSU administrators will be watching.

But, I don’t expect LSU admin to act until the NCAA forced them to, no matter how damning the tapes will be on Tuesday. They’ve stuck with Wade this long, so it would be shocking for them to do the right thing and fire him. I hope the NCAA punishes LSU harder given they’re backing this blatant cheater.

I will be watching. So will the NCAA Enforcement reps.


quote:


"The audio—some of which was not entered into federal court and has never been heard before—will provide pertinent, first-hand information for NCAA investigators working to finalize cases involving LSU and Arizona," Forde wrote. "Much of that information comes from the mouths of the coaches themselves. That’s a significant development."

“Just the audacity, you’ve got to take your hat off to him, bro. … Will Wade is definitely a f------ gangster for what he did,” Dawkins reportedly says of Wade in the documentary.

And if you think Duncan and the NCAA won't be tuned on March 31 you'd be sorely mistaken.

"Duncan said his Enforcement representatives will be watching and taking notes from the HBO documentary," Forde reported.

This documentary is not new information. Media outlets were provided an advanced screening. Does that make it right? Of course not. But, it's not anything that we don't already know about Will Wade.
quote:

What transpires during next nearly two hours of the soon-to-be aired HBO documentary, “The Scheme,” certainly makes it sound like LSU basketball coach Will Wade was talking about cheating with convicted felon and wanna-be basketball big shot Christian Dawkins (HBO provided The Advocate a link to preview the film). It doesn’t make things look good for Wade, but it also doesn’t necessarily make things worse for him at this time, either.

quote:

These are quotes we read in the series of blockbuster Yahoo! Sports articles from early last year about conversations between Dawkins and Wade (and many others) that were caught on FBI wiretaps. Wiretaps designed to, and that ultimately did, lead to Dawkins’ conviction on several counts (he is currently free on appeal).

quote:

But is there anything new regarding Wade? Not really. And the documentary is not about Wade, nor Arizona coach Sean Miller, who comes off looking as bad or worse than Wade does

I'm sure most of the SECRant Worst Poster Bracket will be glued to the TV and will post play-by-play commentary here.

I will, as will most tOSU fans. Everyone knows that entire athletic department is cheating at an exponential rate and I can't wait to see it exposed to the nation.

Not sure. Really only interested in the Will Wade parts. How long is this TV show?

LSU is safe. Due to cancellation of the tournament NCAA cannot afford HBO.

It's a 2 hour show. But, it's about Dawkins and not Will Wade. How much of the show will actually include stuff about Wade probably isn't too too long.

BTW, my sources tell me Wade was working undercover for the FBI during those calls. Nothing will happen because he helped expose what was going on.

That's the first time you've heard that? There are some fans that actually believe it over on Tiger Rant.

Yes. First time I've heard it.

And the fact that some truly believe that on Tiger Rant tells me everything I need to know about LSU fans. INSANE.

Just because there a few that actually believe it doesn't mean that we are all insane.
