LSU's Wade Made Concessions in Reinstatement Deal

Jason Scott Headshot

Louisiana State basketball coach Will Wade may be back on the sidelines, but his reinstatement came at some personal cost.

According to Sports Illustrated, Wade agreed to contract modifications beneficial to the school as part of his reinstatement agreement. The amendments include clauses that allow the school to fire Wade for cause if he is found to have committed Level I or Level II NCAA infractions, or if the NCAA committee on infractions issues a formal notice of Wade’s involvement in such violations to LSU. In addition, Wade forfeited performance bonuses he would have earned for this past season which would have paid him $250,000 under his old contract. Wade also agreed not to sue the school if he were fired over NCAA violations. The changes were uncovered via an open records request.
