Why wouldn’t LSU play in the big dance? This is about Will Wade not LSU basketball players.

Didn’t they pay a guy on the team though?

You think they will stand behind the FBI and NCAA at the door, or will just butt in?

Will Wade is definitely done at LSU but as far as I know they don't have any proof that Smart or his family were paid. The conversations never even mention money specifically or any dollar amount or other benefit.

It is about LSU basketball players. Its completely about them.

How does one not get that?

If they find the proof he was paid and ineligible, then the wins would be vacated, but that will take longer than 2-3 weeks.

Likely next year sometime we will discover the fate of this basketball season.

I would never!!!

Do the right thing LSU fans.

If this happened to my school I'd like for us to sit out this post season

I could never take us cheating to win.

LSU could still play in every tournament, may have to sit Smart.

or the school could try to get ahead of any penalties and self ban from post season.

That's what I'd hope we would do if found in this situation.

bullshite! LSU's been closely coordinating with the NCAA every step of the way since the first media reports surfaced months ago. LSU has taken adequate steps to fully assess and address the Will Wade situation and LSU is in full compliance with the NCAA.

1. The LSU fans don't have any power over what is done.

2. The LSU team (through its interim coach) should suspend Smart and accept the NCAA tourney bid.

Given the NCAA track record on this, LSU would in all likelihood keep all wins from this point forward that involve neither Wade nor Smart.

True, the discussions were all about pie and how it got divided betwixt the player, momma, and the runner.

Nor do I!

But question, when you were at LSU did you notice any basketball players with nice cars or expensive clothing/shoes?
