The text in that AI fake is more coherent than some of the posts here

What happened to those sanctions that were going to break the program? Face it, Lane is telling the SEC to F off and Bama can’t stand it. No one gets to stand up to the SEC but the “The Bear”

Truth. Stepping in and bringing the hammer down convinced me maybe he has a sack after all.

He should have already been gone.
But not because of the stuff going on now.

What hammer did he bring down? His behind is running back to Birmingham with his tail tucked between his legs! Lane punked Sankey!

Did you have that same energy when Chambliss went through a court for another year of eligibility?

Someone hasn't been paying attention. None of these players “quit”.

Pyburn most definitely declared for the draft, and is signed as a free agent with the bucs. Chambliss shouldn’t be playing either but it’s different

Nope but he was ruled ineligible by the NCAA and denied appeals and went through a homer judge to force another year due to a sore throat. He didn’t have to declare for the draft because he knew before hand he was getting another unlike these class of 2022 players who got screwed due to the timeline. Use your logical thinking skills bud

Agreed.
He's screwed up already much harder than this fiasco. And the SEC schools are literally paying for that screw up. If this is what finally tips him over and out of the boat, so be it. But he already set the waves in motion himself with that piss poor media contract.

So you don't like him, so what? He's not always right, but he certainly isn't always wrong. The conferences are going to have to fight rogue judges every step of the way. Again, so what? You don't give in, and you don't give up. The SEC and B1G will fight NFL transfers as long as it takes. This court move was more than predictable; that's not a Greg Sankey problem.
As far as the B1G teams finding sudden success, a few at the top of the food chain are spending a truckload of money. The SEC ran off a couple of decades of NC success because they simply have the best athletes. Oregon, Ohio State, Michigan, and even Indy are now harvesting top talent off the Georgias and ALABAMAs of the SEC football world. Proven talent that has already been coached up. And all it takes is throwing around a truckload of money. Again, not a Greg Sankey problem.

There is a particular detail in this case that no one wants to cover, so I don't blame you for not knowing because the media just isn't covering it.
None of the football players in this case forfeited remaining eligibility to declare for the draft. They simply had no eligibility and this was their only option to continue to play football. 5 for 5 was implemented (in June) and now they want their extra year just like every 4-year player will get moving forward. You may sympathize or not, it's that f***ing simple.

The problem is interstate commerce and anti-trust laws. The Supreme Court historically has dimly looked down on any attempts to get around those. In order to convince the courts that you should especially be allowed from under the thumb of those laws, you need to either have a life-or-death argument (with actual dead bodies and a supporting coroner's report to show for it) or you'd better have very a specific tailored Congressional antitrust exemption in hand.
Neither the NCAA or the SEC have either of those, I'm pretty sure.

The players may win either way.
Damn, the NCAA has to be kicking themselves for adopting 5 for 5 in June after the draft and before the season. As someone said, why not just give a blanket waiver to the 2022 class?
