I saw this on the ESPN ticker last night. I couldn't believe my eyes, then I remembered; this is LSU we're talking about.

Was the LSU BB coach in fact into the FBI probe for being guilty? RTR!

I had the same reaction, i.e.: Is the AD at LSU deaf & dumb?  But I think this may have been forced by a legal/contract situation.  This statement:

"Coach Wade's explanations and clarifications offered during the meeting, absent actual evidence of misconduct, satisfy his contractual obligation to LSU," Alleva said."

So if the coach met his obligations under his contract then maybe they had no grounds for terminating him.  LSU may be on solid legal ground, but the wiretap recording is still out there, and I gotta believe it will hurt them.  The FBI ain't going away.

Could Coach Wade have been working with the FBI?

That's crossed my mind too, but somehow I doubt it. I know the whole story will come out sooner or later, but if he's truly not guilty, and indeed was working with the FBI, it needs to come out sooner rather than later, or he's not going to be able to recruit a paraplegic.

If this hurts his recruiting then he better be working for the FBI as 2 stated. RTR!

Not meeting with the administration for over a month after they requested should be enough grounds for termination.

If he was working with the FBI someone would have notified LSU and let him coach in the SEC and NCAA Tournaments. LSU may be working with the FBI to nail this scum bag.

Might depend on the status of the investigation.  As has been mentioned, the truth will eventually come out.
