re: Chambliss attorney officially files in Miss. state court

We watched him throw 5 dropped INTs vs Miami and said no thanks

I would say good luck but don’t hold your breath. Larry Gillard was ruled ineligible back in 1975 at State because he received a discount at a clothing store in Starkville that was offered to ALL students. Coach Tyler got an injunction that allowed him to play. Three years later NCAA err the NAZI’s somehow won the case and forced State to forfeit 19 wins and two ties (1975-1977). Still the most egregious thing ever done by the nc2a.
Given the Wild Wild West charade that we are witnessing today, the above seems incomprehensible.
But since bizarre is the norm today, the NAZI’s will probably win again in this case too.

won’t they just remove this to federal court? are they arguing amount in dispute?

@TomMarsLaw: I’ve been asked many times why the NCAA doesn’t transfer state court lawsuits to federal court using “diversity of citizenship” as a basis for jurisdiction. It can’t. As an unincorporated association, the NCAA is considered to be a citizen of every state in which it has members. If the NCAA had been smart, they would’ve incorporated the national entity years ago and made it a member of the association. That way, they could remove all state court cases outside of Indiana to federal court. But seeing around corners doesn’t seem to be their strong suit.

Why do you think we’d have a problem with that?

Because you’re a litigious bunch of effeminates

Reality: if players are limited to four years and no more, then players can play four years anytime, and on any schedule that works for them.

Any player that leaves college after three years for the NFL would be free, at some point in the future, to return to college for year four.

If Sequan Barkley wants to take a year long break from the NFL grind, he could pop back down and play at Univ Miami for a year, likely for the same money.

Hope the NCAA wins honestly. All these extra years of eligibility aren't good for the sport.

how in the world does TJ Finley get a seventh year???

CFB is dumb as hell now. Shouldn’t have ever been paid or allowed to transfer nine million times. Free room and board that’s it.
