Southern Law School graduate judge in the 19th JDC. I could care less about this hearing because in that courthouse the law is irrelevant

You think that’s a good look?



He’s going to get on a private jet and fly away to not listen to the testimony of a guy who can’t return to the SEC because he got non guaranteed contract and cut

My last hope for what? Unlike a lot of other people on this site, I don't care whether these guys are allowed to play. I'm just glad college football is back.

This whole circus is fascinating from a legal standpoint, so I'm enjoying seeing how the legal arguments play out on both sides. I just happen to think the issues raised in the federal case are more interesting.

That's still his agent's fault. He sought bad advice and got it.

Why are libtards always trying to forgive the consequences out of bad decisions.

Only in LA


shite like that is said in just about every court room in the country on a daily basis. You'd blush at some of the other things said in court rooms.

Good, so you understand legal precedence. Ball is in LSU's court. They will lose. Surely you understand the first amendment issue with the SEC being able to enforce their bylaws in a voluntary organization. If you don't like it, you can surely seek another conference to join, but I don't think LSU will meet the requirements from the Big 10.

Once again.


Do you think it’s a good look in court to testify you make 4.8 million dollars flew in on a private jet and then bolt before even listening to their testimony?

This case aside, he's as legit a trial lawyer as there is. They selected him as special prosecutor for Derek Todd Lee case, etc.

He's got personality, for sure, but he's one of the good guys and is an excellent attorney.

The people on this board, if they learned about him for another reason, would love this dude. He is hard nosed and wins...a lot.

Nah, I think Kiffin, LSU, and other schools are doing the right thing here. Push the envelope and force the courts, congress, whomever to act.

Until there's a defintive ruling that prohibits this, why wouldn't you try to sign everyone you can (if you believe they'll help you win)?

I am sure Mother Jones or Vanity Fair would love to touch some heart strings with this fluff piece. Let me buy a pint of Ben and Jerry's and lets all have a nice cry

All I've learned is that the majority of the Rant this past week or so (the same Rant that claims to hate ESPN critics and the national media) just parrots every opinion those dumbasses have.


Outside of Louisiana, there really is no other opinion. I understand that you think Louisiana talk radio and LSU based podcasters are objectively giving you the truth. But please son, when you fly up into the Red Stick atmosphere, keep sharp things hidden. Don't want to burst that bubble.

Overseen by a local elected judge from Southern law elected in a district 9 times out of 10 most LSU fans would ridicule is now our supposed hero and federal law expert.

quote:

He did a great job showing bylaws and in the NCAA bylaws he clearly showed how these players should be eligible to play based on the 5 for 5 rule. He got Sankey to admit that the bylaws show that and made Sankey say that he and the sec will follow those bylaws.


I wasn’t aware the 5 for 5 did away with the NCAA’s rules on professionals and eligibility. I am not sure the SEC is the one to question about specific NCAA rules. I thought the focus would be about the SEC rule on professionals.

LSU alumni should be more concerned about what’s happened on the actual campus, but most ignored what Tate was up to and even applauded him for loving sports.

What's Jason Williams like? It's still wild to me that these guys are allowed to have private practices as well

I mean he sounded lost on merits too


Maybe he ducked out before he got shamed by the judge

Is it a normal practice for an elected DA to keep practicing private law even if it’s civil instead of criminal? Not just a figure head with an office waiting for him when he leaves office but actually doing day to day stuff for civil clients and trying those civil cases himself.

EDIT: I didn’t realize Orleans DA Jason Williams was the attorney for the SEC.
