re: LSU fans are calling this a win?? They are kidding right??

There's always "that chance" the two individuals at the center of this are going to sue the SEC (and perhaps the NCAA) and win at least a settlement.

This won't have anything to do with LSU.

hahaha, that lawsuit is the one I'm talking about dumb dumb. They had to push it back because the SEC had no legitimate proof. Thats why no one knows what you are talking about. do better.....

Is Lane Kiffin behind every lawsuit or player in the country playing this year under a TRO? Was he there in Colorado telling the Colorado court to give the 2022 players their 5th year? Even in this case, there were plenty of other athletes from other schools involved in that particular case, it wasn't just LSU players, because LSU wasn't a party of the suit. These players have agents that are trying to maximize their value for this year, and seeing these court cases across the country, their agents saw an opportunity for them, like many others in similar situations, to use their 5th year of eligibility and probably encouraged them to pursue it. Kiffin is not some singular person in their ears that told them to go through with the suit.

I can admit that Lane probably told the players that if they were eligible that he'd given them a spot. Why wouldn't he think he could do that? Many teams across the country were doing basically the same thing, rostering players ruled ineligible by the NCAA but still rostering them because the courts gave them permission and the conferences never got involved before, they all seemed to be willing to listen to the courts leading up to this. And he was also not the only ones that pursued them fwiw, LSU just happened to be the one they committed to. And at the time that the players joined the suit, the conference did not post those rules yet. It was only after the case had been filed, a week before being heard, that the SEC came out with those rules.

At that point, what do you want Kiffin to do? Do you think Kiffin has the power to halt a court hearing involving dozens of athletes from different schools? He repeatedly said BEFORE THE COURT HEARING that he would follow the conference rules. Go look up his press conference from before the hearing, and you'll hear him say it. The SEC is the one that created new rules at the last minute which is why they got enjoined to the case, again that was not Kiffin's doing, that was the SEC inserting themselves unnecessarily. Keep in mind, this is before the court hearing and when the SEC came out with those rules, Kiffin said he would follow them. And Kiffin is also not in charge of the courts, players form all over the country have won similar cases, it's no shock that these players won.

Then the players win, and Kiffin, just like he indicated before the hearing ever took place, followed the SEC's rules and didn't add them to the roster. Again, please point out to me where he went against the conference, or ever indicated any intentions to go against the conference?

They play a game, without the players on the roster, and have a great showing. Should be the end of it right? But then the SEC even after the whole saga of Kiffin repeatedly saying he would follow the SEC rules, and then following through with abiding by SEC rules, decides to file a lawsuit and threaten to expel LSU from the league. And again, for what? Where exactly did Kiffin and LSU go against the SEC in this entire saga?

Literally nothing happened

Lol, the SEC championship is irrelevant if you cant win it all, buttercup. I never said anything about you guys trading coaches, lol. I couldn't name the last 3 SEC champions. I can however name the last 3 national champions because thats what matters. You guys are retarded and thick skulled. I'm not going to explain this again because its already been explained to you multiple times. You are just too dumb to understand.

The money spent and the horrible attention didn't make LSU look stronger. It made it look weak caving in. They did what they were "told to do". You guys keep on thinking it was a win. The normal people... well we see it for what it was. It was a Lane attention grab created by a coach who's going to leave you for the first NFL golden egg to come his way. It's who Lane is. Good luck with that slimeball.

What money spent? LSU is not part of these player suits.

As for caving, the day after Sankey got his arse handed to him in Baton Rouge District Court LSU informed the SEC that they would abide by conference rules and did not roster the players. But nooooooooo! The SEC calls a mtg to expel LSU who is 100% compliant and pretty much quiet on the issue.

Now they have crawled back in their whole with their Fed lawsuit and their Presidents mtg to discuss concession stand prices.

LSU filled their roster spots to satisfy SEC but there are other schools who did not and were not threatened with their continued existence.

Also, the whole issue has called into question the capability and smarts of the SEC leadership in the minds of many major media players… i.e. they dont look to smart right now.

They why isn't Lane fighting this lawsuit?

How exactly should he "fight" it in your opinion?

The SEC had it continued to a later date.

This LSU/SEC situation has been brewing for just a few months.. if that...

What do you mean "old articles"? Keep defending. Maybe if you didn't have Lane's balls down your throat, you could be a bit more objective.

My care meter is pretty low here about Lane or LSU, but I will argue with you for a while about it. That's what's fun to me.
