If the SEC loses the federal case, it's pretty much the end of conference autonomy and the entire thing will be even worse than it is now.

Not true. That already happened years ago with the insane playing of 7th year players, etc.

Current SEC rules require that a player be eligible under the NCAA eligibility requirements. So all of the players in the past that were ineligible under NCAA rules were also ineligible under the SEC rules. Then guess what happened? Those players got an injunction from a court declaring them eligible. Explain how that's different here.


I have multiple times.

In the other cases you mention it was a single person getting a single exception.

In the case with LSU, you launched a coordinated attack against the SEC to force the SEC to associate with players that were below the standards the SEC and it's member set.

The SEC tried to be nice about it, clarifying the rules in a 15-0 vote. LSU said - frick the SEC we will use the courts to get what we want.

And now you are being sued and will soon be out of the league. If you want to be a member of the SEC you must follow SEC rules.

Single cases of exceptions. Not forcing the conference to change its rules completely.

Or you can all believe it's just because everyone hates LSU for as long as you can.

Even a conglomeration of the most advanced AI LLM’s could not achieve such a feat.

Perhaps someday when quantum computing is perfected it could be possible, but even then it’s unlikely.

If you allow tons of single cases you open the door to it no longer being single cases. That argument is BS. Hell LSU is doing no different than what Bama did in basketball just last year.

I’m just on the side of stopping the chaos in college sports. I don’t really care about the outcome of the LSU/SEC lawsuits. I hope this situation will spur some change to rein in the chaos, though.


Exactly how I felt about Chambliss.

Mississippi St. is on LSU's side, to spite Ole Miss

Everyone else is on the anti-LSU side because they want to see a contender go down

I feel same way.. Was hoping that situation would make somebody make a legit law for all to follow. One university can’t play a kid and another cant when both kids involved gave TRO in hand . Just saying. They need to end this madness. When a kid can make more playing college ball then in NFL it’s time to do something

The SEC didn't allow anything; they were forced by the courts. But they were individual cases.

LSU is forcing the SEC to change its rules completely. That is why you are being sued under the 1st amendment for forced association.

It's not an eligibility case.

This is what a lot of people don’t get. I think they almost welcome it at this point and may make it as loud as possible even if they end up just letting the injunctions go.
