When the SunBelt takes LSU, we will have 15 schools. We need a 16th team. Since we have all the Louisiana schools, we should pick an east coast team. East Carolina? Two purple additions.

Sorry to ruin your boner, but ACC and Big 12 will come running to take a top tier athletic program. LSU, A&M, etc.. Every year they are hanging by a thread to avoid losing their current team.


if LSU were to be removed, you can almost guarantee the SEC is grabbing Miami, FSU, and one more from the ACC to fill the spot while also moving to 16.

Also, if you think moving to the current B12 or a potentially gutted ACC would suddenly make LSU some powerhouse, I think you are drastically underestimating what that move would do to your recruiting and overall athletic department financials.

But, seems y'all are all in on the "frick SEC, we dindu nuthin" so let's see how it plays out.

What rule? No questionable players have been rostered because their status is under review pending the federal suit. Almost like it was done intentionally because LSU would follow whatever the court said. No rule has been broken.

And if you don't roster them then you won't be kicked out.

If you do, then you know the consequences.

Honestly, no one really wants that, despite what Ole Miss fans say on here.


It seems auburn is the biggest hater in this thread. At least there’s a sizable amount of Ol Miss fans calling this dumb. I see why auburn would want to get out of our game, though.


State fans, yall are cool af btw…

Maybe maybe not.

But they are not happy with LSU.

And if they can get lane on anything, they will get lane.

The TRO from the LA judge is the issue. Of course they had the authority before.


^^^This. Also the SEC does not care about TROs that only effect the NCAA. What LSU did effects conference rules not NCAA rules.

I worked at a company that elevated an a-hole like Sankey to it's top position. He was highly unqualified as he'd never sold finished goods before, just component parts for electronics, and didn't understand the marketing of finished products. He would go off on people for no good reason, and do his best in meetings to find one thing someone may have said that was a minor part of an overall big picture and he would harp on that. Everyone hated him. I was happy to leave and never be in a meeting with him, again. Just an intimidating a-hole who got his rocks off by being a jerk.

Well, that seems to be the 100 million dollar question. I think it's likely that Kiffin and Wright did have that sort of conversation, and it was the player saying "they're gonna cut me, I don't know what to do", not Lane saying "hey drop out of camp and come to my new super team".

Wright's agent is Drew Rosenhaus, I can't imagine that HE didn't float this idea, as a way for Wright to keep making money (and thus Rosenhaus continuing to get a cut). Maybe Wright asked Lane and Lane responded with "sounds like that would be a good option for you".

End of the day, practice squad guys make peanuts, and someone like Wright would get high 6 figures (at least) from the right NIL. A "what should I do?" is easily, file the suit and take the NIL. None of these suits have ever been challenged until now.

It is not just Harris and Wright. There has been a pattern of behavior.

The title IX lawsuit. Installing a guy suspended for it as AD. All the times LSU stormed the field and gave the SEC the finger while shouting “you ain’t the boss of us.” Taking a SEC head coach during the season. Trying to take their roster. Calling Ole Miss racist, then doubling down by calling the whole state of Mississippi racist. Rehiring Will Wade. Wade trying to import a European pro team. Lane recruiting NFL players. Going toe to toe with the SEC over it. And the halftime jab from Lane “imagine if we had pro players.” It isn’t one thing, it is a series of events, all of which the league frowns on. It may be enough to get them kicked out of the club.

Listening to LSU fans go on and on about their love for small penises doesn't get anyone excited.
