By now you’ve heard about the storm clouds surrounding the LSU basketball program that proved to be too scary for the administration to handle.
Yesterday LSU suspended head basketball coach Will Wade amid an impermissible benefits Yahoo report and today it was announced the program will also keep Javonte Smart, the player assumed to be discussed in the FBI wiretap, away from the PMAC. Sitting Smart is, as LSU phrased it, an “abundance of caution.”
As dramatic as things are at the moment, life does have to carry on for the Tigers. Will Wade is out for now and assistant Tony Benford is in as the interim head coach.
