Thats the thing, legally speaking there is no rule against that. Also prove that we coerced them to do anything when one of the players actually heard from yall first and wouldve had to do the same thing. Its rich coming from you talking about suing an organization and having some home cooking to get the desired result.

If they break the rules then they have no case for being punished.

I keep asking and haven't gotten an answer. What rules has LSU broken?

And LOL at LSU being told to deescalate. LSU is the one who needs to deescalate?

The dumb part is all this is over 2 bad NFL players. If they played and were stars then I see the point. But Kiffin nor LSU is going to win a headbutting competition with the sec.


Damnit I knew we shouldn’t have rostered them. Good point

Article says something shifted on Friday in terms of how fed up member schools got but doesn't really say (I am assuming back channel stuff broke down a bit).

This part of that linked article is telling:


quote:

Earlier in the week Georgia attorney general Chris Carr encouraged SEC commissioner Greg Sankey to "take all measures available to address this conduct, up to and including suspending and/or removing LSU from the conference."


And here's the answer as to why the conference is really so fed up:

quote:

Why has the SEC been willing to fight so hard? It all comes back to a test of its ability to self-govern. One could make the argument this is a one-time issue with the class of 2022 desiring another year of eligibility. Others would point to the increasingly slippery slope every time one of these legal battles unfolds.

But this is about so much more than that.

If the SEC wants to step in where the NCAA has been unable to due to legal challenges, it has to be able to enforce its rules. It had to hold the line or it'd risk setting a bad precedent moving forward if its self-governance model takes on greater importance as many expect it to. It's no different than the Big Ten, which considered its vote on whether former pro players should be able to return as the first test of a self-governance model. The issue is that while the 18 Big Ten schools fell in line, one of the SEC's 16 schools refused to do so.

LSU will be sucking Sankey's dick to stay in the conference.


They don’t bow to bullies. Even the rebel mascot historically is on the losing side.
