LSU DL Maason Smith suspended for Week 1 game against Florida State.

quote:

LSU star defensive tackle Maason Smith will not play in the Tigers' season opener Sept. 3 against Florida State because of a one-game NCAA suspension, multiple sources with knowledge of the situation told The Advocate on Wednesday.


quote:

The NCAA determined Smith received an improper benefit, sources said. Although Smith cooperated with an investigation, sources said, the NCAA ruled him out for the first game. He can return Week 2 for the home opener against Grambling.


Tough blow to LSU.

In today's age with NIL, I have no idea what he could have done to run afoul like this

Michigan's about to get the death penalty for a cheeseburger, but the IRS can shut down an A&M slush fund and nothing happens

In this age of NIL how does someone manage to get an improper benefit?

How do you get a freaking improper benefit? It's legal to pay players now.

Likely had someone buy him a subway sandwich. That’s still highly illegal and the ncaa will keep honor in the sport

You obviously don't remember AJ Green missing 4 games when the NCAA was going after a Bama player down in Miami. Bama stonewalled NCAA, UGA didn't. As I recall not sure the Bama player got any punishment.

I have no idea what it could be. He does have a commercial on the local radio but I can't imagine that's illegal in the NIL landscape.
