Does the SEC have the authority to pass and enforce rules or not?
They passed the fricking “rule” last week while their commissioner didn’t even know the 5 for 5 rule and can’t even define what a professional athlete is

Well it’s clear that gameday will be in LSUs favor Saturday. The tears on here will be delicious

Does the rule exist? Yes.
Last minute eligibility issues happen all the time, was never a court matter until Bama and LSU made it one.
Bama backed down.
Will LSU? TBD.

Bama backed down because the COURTS made them, not the SEC.

What occurred in court to bring you to this conclusion? There were lawyers for the NCAA, SEC, and about 6 lawyers for the various players which included non SEC players that were only suing the NCAA to play.
I followed the proceedings thanks to a super poster. Sankey did horrible damage to the case and future lawsuit.

That’s a load of horseshite. 6 other sec schools are rostering former pro players and Trinidad is 24 years old playing football for millions of dollars. Sec didn’t say shite when ncaa declared him ineligible. This is about fairness across the board the other sec schools are too blind to see it unfortunately

Those are pros. The ones in college are pros too. Rece is right

This occurred long before either team. Prior it was medical redshirts or family matters that were the exemptions. No one was getting paid above board so it wasn’t very publicized.
Now the NCAA added a year of eligibility after a class graduated instead of in January where each athlete could make a decision

Does LSU want to abide by the rules Georgia, Florida and Alabama have to abide by or not?
When the rules are enforced evenly. Go after Ole Miss for skirting the system to get an Ole Miss judge to get an injunction/TRO and playing an ineligible Trinidad Chambliss and then we can talk about everyone agreeing to the same rules.

Ultimately LSU is telling the SEC they don’t get to make and enforce rules.
Like a 6th year player ruled ineligible, twice, getting a restraining order in Mississippi to play in college?
Like a player going through the draft, then mini camp, then getting a restraining order in Texas to play in college?
I keep telling you idiots, LSU didn’t start this fire.

Your coach was named specifically because they believe they have evidence that he orchestrated this entire situation.
There are 60 lawsuits with over 300 athletes throughout the country.
Lane probably did recruit the players. So did other SEC schools.
Players don't just sign with a school on a whim. The schools have to be talking to the players beforehand to
reach an agreement.
DaeQuan Wright even said it came down to Ole Miss and LSU.
So apparently Ole Miss was recruiting him beforehand too.
You just choose to ignore that fact because of your hatred for LSU

when does a player become an NFL union member?
If they're not in the NFL Players Union, they're not officially NFL players. That should be the cutoff. Most players that go to Rookie Mini-Camps, Training camps, aren't made to pay union dues until at least 30-days into their careers. If you sign an E-10 or get cut early in your first camp, you're not in the union.

An NFL player typically becomes a union member immediately upon signing their first NFL player contract. However, under the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA), there is a specific timeline and structure to how this works: [1] (LINK 30-Day Rule: Under Article 47 of the CBA, a player has the technical option to officially join or not join the NFLPA. However, if they choose not to officially join, they must still pay an annual union service fee starting on the 30th day following the beginning of their employment. [1] (LINK [2] (LINK Mandatory: Because this service fee is exactly equal to the standard initiation fees and annual union dues, virtually every active player chooses to sign the union membership card immediately upon arriving at training camp or signing their contract to receive full voting rights and protections.

He likely exposed the SEC to damages by alleging one thing in a public filing and testifying to something in complete contradiction to it in court.
You think, even a flat out lie from a witness, allows someone to sue the SEC for monetary damages? On what basis? Why would money be the remedy? Who exactly would have standing to sue?

Stop pretending LSU just so happened to stumble upon accidentally breaking SEC rules. Yall keep pushing the envelope and toeing the line of no return looking for an advantage that nobody else has done.

Keep trying the damage control, Corn Dogs, but you've just lowered your program to Barn standards. Congrats!
