Assuming a loss is one way to look at it. The other way is - Not if that judgement is overruled.
How well do you think appeals courts will take completely disobeying a court order?

Did you really just ask how it would be unfair for an 18 year old high school player to play against a NFL player?
Surely you did not.
Here is how. One guy is most likely to be 18. The other is 22+. But the main reason is the amount of training, nutrition, and practice they receive. One has 2-3 years of high school level instruction. The other has had 4 years of college nutrition, strength training and practice and a summer of NFL level instruction and training.
Ok so 12 nfl practices is the difference? How is this different than the 6th year 24 year old super senior playing against 18 or 19 year olds?

This is where Sankey may have fricked up and ruined any chance to punish a school (LSU) in the short term. Any ruling for the players will most certainly include language specifically addressing this attempt to force their will against what the court determines is the player's right. Sankey may have just pulled a Texas AG-level mistake.
When the league’s official rational for the punishment is that LSU has engaged in a pattern of behavior, in multiple sports over multiple years, that is not in the best interest of the league you will have an uphill climb.

If LSU hadn’t abstained like a four year old child, this would have all been over. They seem to think they are fighting the system, but instead, they are fighting for their SEC lives. They won’t win this battle

They voted “present” just like a democrat.

Honestly, with the OP's track record, you should go ahead and just assume there will never be a federal suit.
This aged well. Chalk up another loss for poor sidewalk.

OP called it. Kudos. Never expected it to be against LSU and Lane Kiffin. Bonus …

t's actually pretty easy since the SEC did everything in their power to fight it. They honored the TRO in effect until they got their day in court where they won and it was removed.
Then they tried to pass this conference specific rule currently being challenged to limit that loophole in the future/present.
Mainly by trying to get.member institutions to come to an agreement about the Bediako case not happening into infinity with the conferences hands tied by TROs that result in players playing a few weeks before they are removed.
I can see a ton of arguments about NCAA and SEC not solving these issues. However. It seems they are also doing every thing they can to fight them as far as the law allows. Even to rhe point of the new rule aimed at these very loopholes like with Bediako.
The hole in this argument is that the SEC did not pass the new, extremely punitive rule at the spring meetings in late May. They only passed it as an (emergency?) response to the TRO was obtained by Wright, Pyburn, et al. That, along with how it is applying the rule against preseason camp attendees but not OTA attendees, suggests to the judge that this is aimed at these specific athletes.
That doesn't help their case.
