Louisiana Can't Escape the Will Wade Saga

[LaCajunsFan]

Fans is short for fanatics and most were probably mad that there coach was suspended but I've talked to some rational lsu fans who just don't trust Alleva enough to not think maybe he's overreacting to the media line he did in duke lacrosse. I don't know but whether it was mostly the students with the chants or whatever is was a bad look

Yes, I get the dislike for alleva, but they weren't just booing Alleva, they were really cheering for WW....who was caught red-handed buying players. You'd think they would have just a LITTLE embarraresment about that fact. Nope...it's all about Alleva, the BOS and the fact that 'everyone else does it too.'

then why didnt they bring up alleva’s merit earlier? certainly worthy of discussion.... who hires someone and gives them a raise after botching one of the biggest cases in history? what happened to all these extra level of approvals...when we hire someone sounds like “the state” always still has to approve.

I think Wade is a total _______ especially with the NIT stuff but Marlin running his mouth beforehand has a lot to do with that. As cocky as wade is he was gonna talk back when he won even if the win was by the skin of his teeth

But that’s part of the problem. Do I think Marlin said a little too much before the game? Sure. I agreed with him that we should’ve been hosting the NIT game, but when he said that SEC schools don’t really care about NIT games; he gave LSU bulletin board material.

But Wade calling the timeout and screaming “Enjoy this _____” was utterly classless. Maybe it’s just me, but I’m one of those guys who talks back with the scoreboard. There’s no need for that other stuff.

why was wade not given a technical foul?

Its the knots state fans tie themselves into trying to explain away Wades taped conversation that I find hilarious. Someone said the "offer" was for playing time!

I feel sleazy typing this because I am by no means defending lsu but as fas as I know the tapes haven’t been released to the Public and in the first trial the judge even threw them out. All we really have is the yahoo articles of what they say about the tapes probably leaked by the defense since they are the ones calling the coaches to testify. The defense attorney even said he’s gonna call as many coaches as he can fit in court

If you look at my first post of today I allow for the fact that he may be found innocent and that it all goes away.

But I think that is VERY unlikely to happen. Do you agree?

Yes....the timeout incident, and also him flipping us off and screamikng "F THEM" to the lsu fans was just schiItty, childish behavior, and actions that would not be tolerated by our AD or Admin. No matter how much we didn't like what was said about us in a pre-game interview.

Oh I agree but ncaa has messed up some investigations. I guess we’lll know more about his fate when the trial happens. If the tapes are even allowed into evidence this time but it certainly doesn’t look good for the bastard

There’s a very small chance that this may be the case, but it’s a VERY small chance.

If there wasn’t more to this case than we already know, Wade probably wouldn’t be suspended. Also, it was Wade’s lawyers who told him not to show up to that meeting with F King and Alleva. That’s very telling.
