The threat of expulsion clearly carries a lot of weight and in the end did deter LSU from rostering the players.
Just because we're in the midst of a likely great season and don't need distractions. This team is special.

That’s not a win for the SEC, they are about to be sued and they will lose, they are in contempt of court with their actions…they will have a huge monetary payout in a settlement, it will never make it to court…

They still have a TRO against them and did not gain the right to self govern

Over the last 36 hours we heard from a lot of LSU corners, including elected officials, of the value of LSU and how big a program it is.
So we learned that the SEC is strong enough and its leadership has enough credibility to threaten expulsion to a big program like LSU and LSU had no choice but to take it seriously and write that letter ratifying SEC rules and LSU's compliance with those rules.
If the SEC wants to be self-governing and autonomous in the coming age, it had to pass this test. And it did, at least at face value.

Is LSU playing those players they wanted to play?
Also, while we're on the subject - why would LSU fans not want the SEC to have the ability to govern itself? How would that outcome be beneficial for LSU, or any conference member? And I don't mean just in this specific instance, I mean generally.

Some of you gotta be borderline retarded if you think LSU somehow won this exchange.

They won this several days ago. Why did they continue with the vote nonsense?

It makes zero sense for the SEC to have agreed to a continuance today if that was the case.

they were NEVER going to expel LSU or any other team…ever…
This is not 1988 SMU with only the schools taking the hit…
With the NIL/Rev share the college players are pros now…
The tv contracts are too large…the lawsuits would destroy a conference…no team in the power 4 will be expelled or receive a death penalty again…
Personally I do not think it was happening tomorrow regardless. So agreed to that extent.
The SEC is dead on arrival if the nuclear option doesn't have at least a sliver of credibility. This saga proved it does. That doesn't mean in a bigger contest a member wouldn't roll the dice, but this was a classic "very low risk, very high consequence" thing that LSU could not justify continuing.

ESPN/ABC/Disney let it be known they did not want LSU removed. As it usually is, it is about money.

According to y’all LSU hired attorneys and colluded with players to sue the SEC and the SEC has proof yet they are too scared to even go to court….

Why not? The SEC's legal argument was creative but very questionable. LSU clearly agreed to the language in the letter and that it would be the public "concession".
The SEC got what it needs, it doesn't want to test the merits of that case now, why would it?

Next, we can look forward to this board touting an LSU victory (happening in real time), and then their increasing frustration when the entire rest of the sports world writes that the SEC forced LSU to submit and reinforced its authority over member programs (also beginning). Should be fun.
Rousse’s letter proves LSU has been compliant the entire time, both publicly and privately.
Speaking as an LSU fan, none of us give a shite. Sankey looks stupid to everyone, and the SEC is being sued by players.

They knew that they would lose (and by that I mean they knew that the judge would not grant them the relief that they were requesting).

Lane has been on the record saying he would not roster them against the SEC's wishes for almost 2 weeks now.
What happened is the other members, plus the SEC office realized that to remove LSU without cause would cost them their programs and their conference

It’s a successful threat though.
The true problem will arise in other avenues.
Individuals given the right to play by state courts will sue the SEC.
That will be the make or break moment.
If a judge rules that a player is eligible and they sue the SEC and member institutions for colluding to keep them out.
This, like the other cases, will eventually reach the Supreme Court.
Now, it becomes murkier if other conferences decide that they won’t abide by the same rules.
Hell, if all institutions agree to it, would that then result in collusion or a monopoly?
This shite needs to be legislated.
