There is more going on here than we all know.

LSU hopefully blinks because I am not sure putting the SEC Commissioner on the stand for 3 hours was wise.

LSU may have to pay penance of some sort whether it is a Lane suspension or fine. Whatever the SEC has, they think it is enough for severe consequences.

I hope it doesn't come to expulsion. The SEC is better with LSU than without and LSU is crazy to think they can go independent. What happens when Lane leaves (and he will)? LSU is a big brand but they are no Notre Dame.

So they dont exist...because if they youd drop the hammer instead of trying to hide it. The longer this goes on the worse it gets for the SEC so if they had the goods then why not lay the hammer out?

Some people feel Texas was a terrible fit for the SEC.

can you imagine LSU playing the bottom of the barrel Big 12, Big 10, and ACC teams and lay claim to a CFP spot like Notre Dame does?

What is detrimental about LSU's actions that others have not done? Arguably chambliss is worse because the judge was an Ole Miss alum.

Texas is a miserable fit for the SEC. You just don't know it yet.

When a founding member actions are detrimental to the league, what do you do then ?
Fine the hell out of them, penalize them, make their Administration issue a public apology.

The SEC is serious; they've pushed this thing entirely too far IMO. So far that the freaking conference is about to cast votes to shitcan a founding member school, WTF?

LSU has to corral Kiffin, issue an apology and renew their vows as a member of this conference to operate and adhere to the SEC rules & regulations.

Kiffin/LSU didn’t roster them.

So what exactly needs to be brought under control or punished?

0% chance, terrible cultural fit. LSU would be regarded as bringing down the reputation/standing of the B1G in every way outside from a few sports and those universities don't want the typical LSU fan lingering around on gamedays

B12 is the best fit. Texas Tech, Arizona State, Cincinnati, Houston, West Virginia and OK State are close peers with LSU as a whole



Hey SECCaptain

While we talking about Fit , why don't you go roundup those ex Pac12 ReTreads,, Remember your Lame Sissy butt wanted some of that exceptional conference... YOU ARE A Perfect fit for that Crowed..

texes at austin (get-e-up)
cal at berkeley (fun times)
stanford (tree-huggers)
oregon (uni-form blazers) styling

Perfect Cultural Fit indeed!!

100% Chance U FIT IN... Why Don't You Move!!

How would LSU end up rich? They have no legal recourse against the member schools if we do kick them out.

This is nonsense. I know it is a bluff but if the SEC expelled LSU, the B1G would swoop in

I don’t know about that. I absolutely believe there would be some serious conversations about doing so. I believe they would want to, but wouldn’t be able to justify it from an educational standpoint. I think this would be a golden opportunity for the ACC to gain a shite ton of relevance by going after LSU.

Nah, if the conference wants to expel us for not even breaking rules, while turning a blind eye while other schools actually break rules, LSU would be better off without this conference.

LSU forced the SEC's hand on this one. They sued in Louisiana court and got the judge to rule that the SEC couldn't administer any penalties on LSU for breaking SEC rules on the matter thus giving LSU special treatment. LSU not playing the players doesn't undo the damage that was done. If you notice, they expanded the lawsuit to include Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill as a defendant.

At what point do you ever allow one university to use courts in their jurisdiction in order to get favorable treatment? The only way to undo that is to use the courts elsewhere and you have to stop it right when it starts.
