Soverign immunity bars all of those. If the SEC schools slated to visit Baton Rouge don’t show up, LSU would have no remedy. You could ask Mike Leach all about suing a state school and sovereign immunity if he was still alive.

Reading comprehension is your friend... I don't see where the previous poster said anything about Kiffin actually being Saban... more of, he could possibly do what Saban did.

Lmfao. They dont need one. Itd be like those schools saying "Hey let's light millions of dollars on fire and not play LSU"

You are uninformed dipshit.

SEC members can certainly remove members.

As far as suitable replacements to the headache that LSU has become, here we go, UNC, FSU, Clemson, Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, NC State, Duke, Virginia, Texas Tech, TCU, Arizona, etc. etc.

Your football program would implode before it had any impact on 1 of the 15 schools boycotting your athletic program. $100M football payroll with no revenue.

Should work out well.

The schools that host LSU stand to lose money. They are not going to cancel those games..

On the other hand, the schools that visit LSU would not lose anything, as the guarantee paid to the visiting team might be enough to cover travel costs, but nothing more than that.

Ever heard of television revenue?

So now the sec wants to piss off TV networks and cost them millions by acting like pussies, please tell me how this continues to work.

If they don't show up they forfeit. Thats an easy W for LSU.

I’m sure it is covered in the contract and
insured against.

Covid games weren’t played because of roster problems. Didn’t result in a forfeit then. Probably won’t now. But whether it does or doesn’t, you can’t cash a forfeit in at the bank.

So the SEC is backing off and leaving it to their individual members to handle.

They couldn't play because of Covid. They are choosing not to play in this instance.

And its far too late for said school to reneg on it as well. Those protections likely have firm dates of when they expire.

Action by individual members is certainly an alternative for the reasons I’ve pointed out. The players and LSU are limited in their ability to sue subdivisions of other states.

So what remedy can an individual member or members enforce outside of forfeiting?
