The Will Wade saga took another turn this weekend, as Yahoo breathlessly reported that FBI agents were in Baton Rouge to investigate him.
Pete Thamel then takes the logical leap that “The FBI’s interest in Wade’s recruiting tactics could potentially signal an expansion in the federal basketball corruption case. An FBI agent who was in Baton Rouge declined comment when reached by Yahoo Sports.”
Ummm… yeah. So, the FBI wouldn’t comment on why it was investigating Wade, so Yahoo reported that it signaled an expansion of the investigation. This reporting held up for a good hour or two, before ESPN weighed in on the case.
