Serious question.... When has the SEC actually done anything besides talk big?

I am not a big follower of college football outside of LSU so I really don't know. I personally can't remember the SEC taking any meaningful action against anyone.

Some of you know a lot more about the history than I do though. Can you give an example?

Well, they're suing LSU in federal court.

Right. And? So what? Ok they filed suit. We are a litigious nation. What is the outcome of the suit?

Agreed. So outside of this suit.... What else has the SEC done historically to another program?

I'm not sure anything happens.

This is an attempt by Sankey to regain the control he lost in court last week. It's a power move.

But this does seem different in that it seems personal between Sankey and Kiffin.

I look briefly, and besides the current hubub, enforcement actions seem to be limited to fines for field rushing, ticket allocation disputes, etc. Granted a cursory search may have missed something distant.

So it's an ego thing

That's kinda what I was remembering. There's historically not much bite to their bark

Well they don't bark often.

They're certainly barking now. Guess we will see if they bite.

The SEC's done nothing in the last five years except sit around and watch the Big Ten pass them by.
