LSU President and Alleva asked Will to come into the office to discuss the FBI reports but Wade's attorneys declined to appear thus the suspension.
So LSU was forced to suspend him they didn't initiate it for the good of the program.
Great story on Will Wade
Typical LSU. They announce they will not skip any tournaments:

Extremely entertaining. Also 90% really don’t believe they did anything wrong. I’m just going to sit back relax and enjoy. It amuses me the sec commissioner and others keep saying “if true”. . . There’s a tape. It’s true. I just wish the tape would be released.RobertM320 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 3:28 pm Full meltdown mode on Tigerdroppings if anyone's bored this Friday afternoon!

Hell hath no fury like an LSUgh fan who has been caught cheating. I took Bicoastal's advice and searched for the TigerDroppings forum. Wow! Torches, pitchforks, and scythes...oh my! These folks are not angry because 1)Will Wade was caught discussing cheating; 2)their school is disgraced; but 3) because Joe Alleva suspended Will Wade before the conference tournament and NCAA selection. It's all Alleva's fault!! Winning is everything. AmIRight?Bicoastalwave wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 4:21 pmExtremely entertaining. Also 90% really don’t believe they did anything wrong.

I suspect that there will be a very large number of LSU apparel items (slightly worn) that are returned to Wal Mart for refund this week.

At least after going winless in conference play, we at Tulane have the benefit of being above suspicion. There's that.

Maybe the rumors are that Dunleavy is having talks about his contract being bought out at a discount, or coming to an agreement where he'll step down. Maybe we're starting the rumors. Either way, we need a new coach by the end of this month.

Dang I read gbgreenie’s headline for this thread (before his thread was merged into this one) and I immediately thought he was implying that LSU was already in talks to hire Mike Dunleavy. That was very misleading on gbgreenie’s part. Nothing would make me happier then to see LSU basketball go up in flames with Will Wade and for them to hire a mediocre coach like a Mike Dunleavy to take over their program.

The NCAA needs to send a message....and not invite them.....

Interesting stuff. It’s unfortunate that the players have to experience this while having such a great season. Oh well, back to our winless conference season that includes a non conference loss to a team that finished last in the SWAC.
Ball Sumrall!
the boss calls u in for a meeting, U tell him to go f#@k off and U still have a job ?...nice

I was clear about that above. They are going to be forced to vacate all wins so just end it now. May help them with the sanctions that are coming.It's the Smart move. But then it is LSwho we are talking about.

I say let them play while the coach is sitting out. They've had a great year, and the kids in the program, both paid and unpaid, deserve to play out the season. It's not like this isn't happening at a bunch of other NCAA tournament bound schools, LSU just happens to be in the spotlight this week.
These are 18-22 year old kids we're talking about. In many cases the recruiting violations took place when they were 15 or 16 years old. put the kids first, not your hatred for LSU.

Wade should have shown up for the meeting and then declined to say anything on the advice of Legal Counsel...not showing up, is gounds for a "for cause" termination...if the Prez or Joey A, ( who I think knew what was happening / involved ) had any balls at all, he would have been gone...... as they said at SMU..."

Truth is Wade is gone anyway. And, will he take the fifth when subpoenaed to trial for the pending NCAA corruption case? No attorney will advise him to testify, that much is for sure.golfnut69 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 7:55 amWade should have shown up for the meeting and then declined to say anything on the advice of Legal Counsel...not showing up, is gounds for a "for cause" termination...if the Prez or Joey A, ( who I think knew what was happening / involved ) had any balls at all, he would have been gone...... as they said at SMU..."

It's not about hatred of LSU. They've been caught red handed. All victories so far will eventually be vacated. Once they get in tournament play those victories they get will be vacated too. The teams they play that they knock out won't get a do-over. It's simply the right thing to do. Just because others are doing it doesn't make it right for them to selfishly continue only to have it all stripped away.DfromCT wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 4:31 am I say let them play while the coach is sitting out.

We got Honeycutt because he was got almost stabbed to death. His character scared a lot of people away. I'll say again just because some schools have participated in this for long periods doesn't make it right. when one gets nailed like this they deserve everything they have coming to them.

Why? You think the players that weren't paid don't know about the ones that did get paid? They're all just as complicit. They went along with it, and got caught. Period. And I bet you won't see the player that got "the rookie minimum" giving it back.DfromCT wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 4:31 am I say let them play while the coach is sitting out.

How many programs in the field of 68 teams do you think there's no payments taking place? 30? Get real, this is widespread. And the NCAA will come in as a holier than thou judge and jury, yet the NCAA is making huge amounts of money off of these kids. It is a billion dollar industry.
