Perhaps you should read the SEC’s amended filing.

You rostered the NFL guys that Lane had convinced to sue?

I must've missed it, because I thought LSU backed down like huge pussies.

SEC had no evidence of wrongdoing, therefore they caved and withdrew.

Spin it how you wish.
You mean LSU decided not to roster the NFL players and finalized their players with eligible atheletes; therefore removing the suable offense? Sounds like LSU didnt want the smoke and backed down and as a result, Sankey backed down as well.

Congrats on staying in the conference.

The reason everyone blinked. The Mouse spoke through Stephen A.

There is a big saying in the entertainment/sports industry,

YOU DO NOT frick WITH THE MOUSE. (Disney/ABC/ESPN)

They were over this shite. Those ads for Ole Miss LSU are already sold and paid for mfers. And it’s a lot more than the 5 million Sankey makes. Maybe he is new to money and doesn’t know the rule. Millionaires don’t frick with Billionaires

LSU won natties before and after Saban…let that sink in…


With 3 different coaches who all had losing records over their career without their W/L records at LSU. Let that sink in.

LSU was scared. That's abundantly clear.

For (hopefully) the last time - LSU didn't cave. They did what they said they would do all along (comply with the SEC). They waited to see how the legal wrangling played out and when there wasn't any basis for rostering those kids, they didn't do it.

Sankey did nothing but crap his own bed and shorts on this, and his bluster accomplished nothing but ruining his own career and demeaning the overall SEC.

Because if you do that, there will not only be no SEC, but no Bama sports left after the myriad of lawsuits are filed.

So you just learned connasse was French? Really retarded ain'tcha

Less controversial (I think) takeaways from this saga:

I think the SEC was able to bluff on expulsion in large part because LSU didn't have insight into what other SEC schools might do on something of this magnitude. I'm sure LSU thought it had a reasonable idea, but it didn't know for certain, and hence the collective panic yesterday and the letter today.

I don't really read that as "LSU doesn't have connections" so much as there being just enough distrust of other peer institutions to think "Would UGA/whomever really do it?"

Why did this "bluff on expulsion" come after LSU publicly stated they would not roster the two players?
