SMF Dream Hire

Wow, I'd hire him in a heartbeat. He isnt getting a show-cause and even if he does, who cares. A show cause just means a school has to show cause as to why they should not be sanctioned for employing him. There is no possible way Pitt would get anything more than a 1 year NCAAT ban for employing a coach on a show cause.

And your guy Buzz is a candidate at LSU per Goodman guess he isn't as scared to coach in the SEC as you unlimited knowledge of college hoops has led you to believe.

As for Wade, punishment can follow him to his new school. Five level 1's are really bad. Can see a couple years suspension. So let's hire him at the end of next season and then wait until the end of 23-24 season for him to start. That's a winning strategy.

Punishment doesn't follow you. Its leveled against the school. If the coach gets a show cause, it doesn't say he can't coach, it says his new team has to show cause as to why they shouldn't be sanctioned. Penn State got 2 years for child rape. UNC got nothing for fake classes. Pitt would get no more than 1 year for employing Will Wade. Heck, LSU isnt getting any more than 1 year.
 
And if the NCAA doesn't agree? He has FIVE LEVEL 1 VIOLATIONS. Did you actually read what he did? Paid players. Paid friends of recruits. Paid blackmail money. Didn't turn over documents for almost 2 years. And when he did, he didn't include a ton of them. Or lied about it because the payment to Smart came from his wife's account. Several assistants that got busted got 10 yrs show cause and they did 1/10th of what Wade did.

As for your examples. Did the head coach at Penn State ever coach again? The UNC (as much bullshit as it was because all the top athletes' grades are monitored to make sure they are eligible so they knew) was a school thing and had nothing to do with the Ath Dept since any undergrad could take those classes.

He's going to get crushed. Why would you even consider him?
 
Pearl was hired while under a show cause but he only had to sit for 4 months so Auburn didn't bother to appeal.

Thanks for your appeal Pitt. We know we gave this guy a 10 year show cause because what he did so heinous, in fact the worst we ever saw from a head coach. But you guys made such a compelling case to hire him we'll let him coach immediately. We don't care about the precedent. After all, he's your only hope.

The NCAA cant tell a guy or a school that a guy cant coach due to NCAA sanctions. They issue a show cause and the NCAA's only recourse is sanctioning the new school. There is a 0.0000% chance that whoever hires Will Wade is getting less of an NCAA penalty than the PSU wrist slap for the institutional cover-up of child rape.

I am guaranteeing whoever hires Wade doesn't get more than a 1 year NCAAT ban? What do you guys think? 5 years? 10 years?

Actually, Duquesne would be insane if they didnt hire this guy.
 
I think that no one is going to hire Wade for a long, long time, so it's not going to make much difference.

Probably. Because AD's are pu.....nevermind.

If Duquesne doesn't hire this guy, man, why the eff not??? I mean lets say they give Duquesne a 2 year ban, 3 years, so what. He will have them in the NCAAT eventually. Its worth the wait. Plus, he has experience in the A10 at VCU though that's quite a different level of an A10 program.

If he has the NCAA watching his every move and the school putting in extra compliance measures to the point where he can't buy players any more, is there any real evidence that he would have any sort of success at all at a place like Duquesne?

Although it would perfectly encapsulate where Duquesne basketball is right now for them to bring in a pariah like Wade, get a multi-year NCAA ban for doing so, and then have Wade never finish in the top half of the league.

A smart coach with active boosters will find ways to reward kids through NIL deals .

How good of a coach is he when he doesn’t cheat as extreme as he did?
 
Absolutely.

What have we seen from Wade in all this that would lead anyone to think that him and smart should ever be used in the same sentence?
Thinking the coach does this without the knowledge of administers is naive .

Just like in the Mission Impossible movies if you get caught the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your activities . Good luck Mr Wade !
 
With regards to how smart Wade was . When no one cares how you get it done you don’t have to be as discreet.


Well someone cares, because he just got fired and no one is going to hire him for a long, long time. If ever.

Someone who was smart would have done a little better to hide all the cheating. He was dumb enough to assume that he would never get caught, and if he did there would be little or no consequences.

Oops.

Now with the NCAA coming down on him he has to fall on the sword .

If two people know a secret that’s one too many .

He took the risk and was well compensated for it . If he never works again he won’t need to worry about where his next meal is coming from . Just like Miller money will never be an issue in their lives .
 
Wade will receive around a 10 year show cause, effectively ending his college coaching career.

Miller will get around 50-70 percent of his penalty. This has essentially ended Miller to Pitt forever.
 
Wade didn't win enough to be worth an AD taking on the risk. He never impressed me as an X's and O's or player development coach. The two obvious "cheaters" who were remarkably teachers of the game are Pitino (who I'd love to hire) and Larry Brown (who is unlikely at his age to head coach ever again.)

You're right again. The NCAA has never suspended a coach. Ever. Even for a game or two. Ever.

His penalty is the show cause. The NCAA cannot suspend him any further. They cannot penalize him any further. That's the harshest penalty. If a school hires him, the NCAA will sanction that school but for how many years???? I say a 1 year NCAAT ban? Do you guys want to guess? Duquesne has tried everything else. They need to hire Wade or Miller.

He’s getting 10 years. His college career is over. He’ll be in the prep scene at a Florida school next season.

He's getting a show cause. It doesn't mean a school cant hire him.

Let me ask you this. If Duquesne hires him, what NCAA ban do they get? 10 years? Yea right. 1 year.

It means that he will be restricted in his duties for 10 years. No one is hiring him. You continue to be a dolt. He already has a prep school job.
 
Yes. A school can hire him. Then the NCAA can suspend him as long as they want. School is powerless to do anything. Or they can defy the NCAA and let him coach. See how that works out at NCAAT time.
