Scenarios for tomorrow

LSU has said they will abide by the ruling.

Let’s say the ruling tomorrow is 3, 4, 6 or 7 and LSU never ends up rostering Wright and Harris.

What is the talking point on this board then?

quote:

---

1. Full preliminary injunction
NCAA must give the named plaintiffs a fifth season and SEC/Sankey cannot penalize them or schools for their prior NFL status.

2. Narrow/conditional preliminary injunction
Same basic result, but limited to the 33 named plaintiffs, 2026-27 season, perhaps requiring termination of pro contracts/repayment of NFL compensation

3. NCAA injunction granted, SEC injunction denied
NCAA must recognize fifth-year eligibility, but the SEC retains its independent right as a voluntary association to prohibit former pros

4. Partial distinction among players
Judge protects players who merely declared/attended camps, but allows restrictions on players who actually signed NFL contracts or appeared on NFL rosters

5. Court takes matter under advisement
No final PI ruling tomorrow; Jorden temporarily extends/preserves the TRO while preparing written reasons

6. Preliminary injunction denied
Plaintiffs have not made the required showing; TRO dissolves

7. Injunction denied as to both NCAA and SEC on broader legal grounds
Court accepts NCAA/SEC arguments that eligibility rules and voluntary-association rules are lawful/enforceable
