Well, lawyers got involved and anytime lawyers get involved the NCAA tucks it's tail and runs.

LSU is a disgrace. They basically just looked at the FBI and said "prove it!" If they really think the FBI has shown all their cards then they are idiots. When the FBI takes this to trial and brings down Wade, the LSU program will now come down with him.

The lessons learned from 1. AU-Cam
2. AU-Pearl
3. UNC-Academic fraud
4. LSU- Wade
Lawyer up and do NOT cooperate with the NCAA.

The Bruce Pearl effect. Clam up, don't talk to anyone and ride out the storm. If you win a few games, all is forgiven. Schools are taking their lead from Auburn when it comes to the NCAA which means lawyer up, and dare them to take meaningful action. The hypocrisy of the NCAA is growing every year when they allow schools to do blatantly cheat and basically don't do anything about it. Ole Miss was the last school to get really hammered, but the NCAA has people willing to talk. You'll never get anyone to talk at LSU or Auburn. How do you think Chuck Person's family is surviving right now? Think about it.

I agree with everything you said when it comes to just dealing with the NCAA. Problem for LSU is that this isn’t just the NCAA, they have to deal with the FBI and the FBI isn’t going to back down. If the FBI has more on Wade and ever releases it, LSU will look much worse than just a school playing games with the NCAA.

Funny tidbit from Alleva's announcement is who made the decision to suspend Wade. LSU fans took out their anger at Alleva, but it appears he was told to do so...

Alleva was ordered by LSU President F. King Alexander to suspend Wade on March 8, according to emails obtained via public records request by NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune.

“Based on Will Wade’s refusal to meet with us regarding the accusations published yesterday in the media, I hereby direct you to place Coach Wade on interim suspension immediately and indefinitely, pending further investigation," Alexander’s email to Alleva read.

Would suspect the same is true for Will Wade, too...

So no testimony from Wade or Miller means what for the NCAA? If they both keep their mouths shut for the most part and simply deny the allegations, what legs does the NCAA have to stand on?

I read that the transcripts of their recorded conversations will be submitted as evidence, so the NCAA will have plenty of evidence. The only question is whether or not they will do anything with it.
