SEC commissioner Greg Sankey comments on LSU's decision to reinstate Will Wade

Last week, the LSU Tigers made the controversial decision to reinstate basketball coach Will Wade from a suspension that cost him the SEC and NCAA Tournaments.

The federal trial involving Wade and Arizona coach Sean Miller is still forthcoming, which made the Tigers’ decision even more interesting, and on Monday, SEC commissioner Greg Sankey discussed that choice.

Speaking with reporters, Sankey said the story of Will Wade isn’t over yet, adding that the trial will provide a lot more information as all involved parties move forward:

Greg Sankey calls the reinstatement of LSU basketball coach Will Wade a "chapter" in the story of college basketball's ongoing narrative of corruption in the sport. With the federal trial beginning today, Sankey says, "We'll see how this whole story concludes."

Wade isn’t out of the woods yet, and it’ll be interesting to see how things play out over the next few weeks.
