You can watch it on March 31.

First hand, you’ll see the destruction of your basketball program. Just a year later than it should have happened.

God speed.

You think they're going to show proof of LSU players actually getting paid?

The problem is .. there isn’t audio or tape of him saying anything about a specific figure and unless there is a paper trail from the player back to him, then it doesn’t matter. They can try to win in the public eye but they have no basis for real discipline. The only way they win is if the admin caves into public pressure.

The NCAA doesn’t have to prove that actual money was exchanged. Making offers to recruits is pretty bad, even if payment was never made.

When do we hear the tape of Wade making offers?

What has happened at LSU will likely top the Mills situation and likely land the Tigers a near-death blow for their basketball program when all is said and done here.

If the NCAA cared about the legitimacy of amateur basketball, it would have jumped into the AAU circuit years ago. The NCAA is ripe with cheating. It’s just funny that it’s ARIZONA and LSU getting all the flack. North Carolina, Kansas, Duke, and Kentucky make the rest look like shining beacons or morality

Even if the NCAA can’t use the tapes of Wade trying to outbid other schools for players as evidence, the fact remains that it can clearly be used as a solid reason for an investigation.

I think one thing everybody can agree on is that that should happen. If there’s nothing to be found and nobody (other than Dawkins) is willing to testify, then so be it, but they need to at least do their due diligence.

True. They generally don’t care. However, they will care when a coach is on tape talking to a handler about making offers.

Who cares if Wade is fired or not? He's like the 4th best coach in the SEC. LSU could do much better. I wouldn't mind if LSU gave him a 10 year extension because then I'd know Auburn would be better than LSU for the next 10 years.

We already know what was said. They didn’t release what they did during the trial and hold all the good shite out.

Unless Wade says Smart’s name and an amount that he’s being paid this was just another hit piece they were trying push around March Madness.

I mean, who do people think Wade was bidding against? There was really only one other major player for Smart.
