Per Kiffin's presser today, each coach must submit a copy of his "final roster" the day prior to the first game. That roster is then locked in for the rest of the season.

Kiffin said he will need to know guidance from the SEC and playoff committee before submitting his roster on Friday. He reiterated that the player led "Leadership Committee" was in favor of the roster additions and that he is waiting on further guidance from the conference.

Lane also said that Dae'Quan Wright and Junior Tuihalamaka have both practiced with the team and the conference is aware but wouldn't comment on if either will play against Clemson. Per Kiffin, most position battles have been settled except for defensive tackle, where they'll use a rotation.

Does that include..... being kicked out of the SEC; banned from all voting and decisions within the conference; having every game forfeited that either NFL players particpated in; etc. etc. etc.

LSU should totally let the “Leadership Committee” make the decision.

I would believe this more if he hadn’t said the Ole Miss players council wanted him to coach the playoffs. And then they all immediately called him a liar

Saying the players are in charge isn’t a good look. You think that means something?

"DeBoer noted that exploring the return of former players affected by these NFL cuts is a possibility the program is monitoring."

It wasn't me - it was "The leadership committee".

SEC already told him he couldnt use those players....there's your guidance. What more needs to be said.

Possibly, but I think both parties will wait to see what the courts rule.

Let’s also see how other programs behave should the ruling go in the players favor
