I mean, there's no way that judge's order holds up on appeal. The SEC isn't going to just accept a state court telling a national conference it can't enforce its own eligibility rules. This thing is headed way above that judge's pay grade


Probably but the players will get the TRO tomorrow and be able to play until a final decision is made. Bama basketball gave you the blueprint.

They are acting like they know what the Thursday judge will rule.

Then waiting to see what the SEC does about it.
They do know what the judge will rule. That isn't even in question

And in the meantime LSU will be sealing it's fate. Potentially. Obviously nothing is set in stone yet, but these are serious discussions.

I hope our judge cries like the Ole Miss judge. I want a full blown spectacle.

LSU isn't doing shite. They're waiting to see what happens tomorrow. They have not issued a single statement saying they plan to ignore conference rules.

Kiffin has been adamant that he will follow SEC rules. He claims he’s seeking guidance from the SEC office to make sure he complies. Which is very strange, because the SEC has already made it very clear that it’s against their rules to play an athlete who previously contracted with the NFL.

Very hard now to take Kiffin at his word that he plans to follow the conference rules.

If the league kicks LSU out for playing a player a judge said could play, LSU’s ensuing civil suit would end the Conference financially. The other 15 schools would have to empty out their coffers to pay for the damages.


A member can be voted out for any reason. Or no reason. Good luck proving they kicked you out over these two players.

All they have to say is that the other SEC members acted because they feel that LSU no longer aligns with the values of the other 15 members.

Make no mistake, this is not the only thing that LSU has done that is viewed very unfavorably. This is on top of taking a coach from a conference playoff member during the playoffs, rehiring Will Wade, and him trying to hire a Euroteam; and all in the span of 10 months.

But by all means, keep pushing.

Arkansas might go from last in conference standings to 2nd the last if that happens depending on who would replace us

I believe the floating rumor is intended to influence tomorrow's court case in Louisiana

You really need to stop pretending like you understand the law and how lawsuits work.
