The SEC argued that recruiting international players was a basis for their lack of institutional control claim in their brief. Y'all really need to stop blinding yourself just because it's fun to get one over on another team and fanbase online. Sankey is exposing the SEC to massive liability and embarrassment.

They are here to only troll LSU and act like little brats.

Not at all... I'll posit a serious proposition.

SEC should make a deal w/ the ACC to swap LSU for Miami.

Honestly, you can blame the first school's that told players to sue the ncaa.

Those first lawsuits opened the floodgates.

That's fine. Have to kick LSU out first. Think through the consequences of that if you're capable

The SECs Professionlism rules dumbass. The whole basis of their lawsuit against LSU.

Auburn and Mizzou should be booted now because they are violating that policy and showing a lack of institutional control.

I mean, if you want to be completely obtuse on the matter, sure, but this isn't actually what the argument was.

Please expound on such "Professionalism [sic] rules" - be specific. Or are you just a shill that regurgitates talking points spoon fed to you like a 5 year old?

Don’t worry it’s ok. He’s agreeing to pay back the 300,000 euros he was paid.

They used that as a fact to their argument, why brief it otherwise?

"LSU has also recruited international professional basketball players whose eligibility remains in question. LSU's head men's basketball coach has been candid about LSU's strategy: 'We're going to be unapologetic about it. This is who we are. This is what we're doing. This is the path that we charted. We're going to go down it, and that's fine."

Not the new "pro rule", but it is violation of 14.01.01, which is the rule originally cited by the SEC is their lawsuit against LSU.

I can't really imagine the SEC without LSU in it. But you have to admit your fans often act with great bravado and emotion.

The current LSU projected roster has a lot of guys with this same situation and no one that signed an NBA contract either.

What the hell happens to these "projected" rosters that have numerous players with questionable eligibility? It's a little late for programs to start hunting for replacement players for this season.

You couldn’t make this shite up. It might take 2 years, but it’s going to be so much fun to watch this SEC stuff play out in court… conference is about to go on a historic losing streak

Auburn had one last year. His skill was more raw than most players in the SEC.

The NCAA has never felt threatened by Europro leagues

I think the age is more of the issue

Of course I admit that - I talk shite to many all the time for this fact.

But that doesn't make them wrong in this instance, or the SEC right.
