Will Wade caught on FBI wiretaps.
https://www.usatoday.com/story/spor...ch-wade-recorded-discussing-offer/3093352002/
LSU basketball coach Will Wade told recruiting middleman Christian Dawkins about a "hell of an offer" to apparently reel in a top recruit in a phone conversation that was intercepted by the FBI, according to a report from Yahoo! Sports on Thursday afternoon.
According to the report, Wade appeared to be speaking about a third-party's attempts to delay a commitment because "he didn't get enough of the piece of the pie in the deal." Wade does not mention the recruit by name, according to Yahoo! Sports, but references it as "the Smart thing."
Javonte Smart, who was a four-star recruit, is now a freshman at LSU.
The most amazing thing about this scandal is how many major head coaches are making these calls directly. Haven’t they ever heard of a fall guy? Take some lessons from corporate America.
