Why would a lawyer spend 200 clerk hours for a suit that bears no fruit? I can think of a few reasons.


Bears no fruit? At minimum, these players will be granted damages equal to their NIL payments last season.

What court?

It has been said 100 times on the rant that lane never intended to roster them.

Chambliss was a different situation than the nfl.


Texas
Oklahoma
Missouri

All roster players ruled ineligble by the NcAA and SEC because of a court ordered restraining order.

Are you fricking dense?

The players will file a lawsuit in the same district that granted their restraining order.

I mean, come on man.

I think it would fly pretty easily.

1. We have rules
2. LSU and the other 15 members voted for the rules
3. The other 15 voted for punishment if you break the rules
4. LSU decided to comply with said rules

LSU had multiple alternatives.

Look up the definition of NIL.

It can't be "tied to playing football".
You wouldn't be admitting that LSU is illegally promising NIL payments?
Are they promising playing payments? Incentive payments? Those aren't allowed.

Ineligible because of the nfl contracts?

Yup.

Worst case, LSU settles with them. Regardless, LSU made the correct calculation (in the end) that these two players were not a hill worth dying on.

This isn’t just about “playing” you fricking waterhead.

It’s about limiting eating potential. It the literal basis of the lawsuit that Diego Pavia won against he NCAA and SEC.

Why they were ruled ineligible is irrelevant.

“Signed an NFL contract” isn’t the only rule the SEC has.

That probably would have helped Harris keep his roster spot with the saints.

You can check out Diego Pavia’s lawsuit for yourself.

You probably should. You’re woefully uninformed.

The SEC doesn’t have a rule for medical redshirts.

That is the rule which has the punishments which the rant is bitching about.

There are lines not to be crossed.
You know that Saban sat lane down, right?

Harris would have gone on IR, making $0 dollars for the season.

He didn’t have a guaranteed contract, or a signing bonus.

Doesn't matter, Chambliss didn't receive a medical redshirt.

The reason this was so successful in the past is because it was levied at the NCAA, which has an effective monopoly on the ability for college players to make substantial money from (in theory) their name, image, and likeness while playing college football.

The SEC does not have that effective monopoly.
