The most likely outcome is that the garter set you ordered for Buttercup, your fluffy baaa-panion, won't fit and you'll have to return it.

They have every legal right to do that now, but they also face the possibility of harsh legal implications down the line if they do.


Let this happen!

LSU has been self imposing playoff bans for quite a while

In fairness, you are naming teams that you suspect will submit names of former NFL players on their 105 man roster. Then, it will depend on how many actually play said players.

I suspect a few teams will submit some names of former NFL players on their roster, but then wait until the dust settles to play them. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out. But teams that submit those names and play some of those players should never complain about NIL or the portal again, or how the college game is ruined.


Missouri already played one of them last night.

All the outrage about LSU and they aren’t the first to recruit, nor sign, nor roster, nor play a former professional athlete.

Isn’t that funny?

No. They didn't. Sterling Webb was a part of the 5 in 5 group. He was never on an NFL roster.

It would be if it were true. For instance, I can't claim I am a former Dallas Cowboy if I was never on their roster.

I don’t believe LSU will qualify for the CFP this season and I’m on record as predicting it.

First season and now he’s being sued by the SEC in Federal court in Alabama.

Too many distractions.

Actually, it upheld an injunction. This is not a final ruling. There is every chance this will be overturned, and it is amazing that LSU might actually be tempted to play with fire and play these guys.

Bama played Bediako and the once the SEC ruled Bediako ineligible they did not drop a SINGLE seed line even while having wins on their schedule that Bediako played in

It'd be hilarious if the CFP announced this new rule literally a minute before they announce the teams. That way, LSU can't sue their way in beforehand, assuming they win enough games.

LSU will win a 1 billion dollar lawsuit if they are banned against court orders not to discriminate against these players. Think of the NIL money the tigers will have then!

List the rosters with Wright and Harris on them.

So Harris was never a pro, and neither was Wright then.

Got it.

What's the point of putting a playoff ban on a school that couldn't make the playoffs in football, baseball, or basketball last year anyway?
