The "T" stands for "temporary". If you ultimately lose the case(s), any team that had a player playing under a TRO will have to forfeit any wins.

I doubt it. Alabama didn't last year for playing the guy in basketball.

They should have, but I guess because of the TRO they can't because he was technically eligible for the game?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was only temporary like that guy was though.

Technically they aren't eligible. The TRO simply prevents the NCAA/SEC from taking adverse action against the schools until the court makes a substantive ruling regarding whether they are eligible. That's why Alabama had to cut Bediako lose when the court ultimately ruled in his case.

Bediako announced he was coming back to play. A judge filed a temporary restraining order that the SEC could not punish him immediately or retroactively while waiting on his hearing. He played for two weeks until his hearing. He was ruled ineligible. That was it.

The SEC abided by the initial TRO. Alabama and Bediako abided by the ruling.

Had he been ruled eligible they might have escalated things. If Alabama or Bediako had sued them they might have escalated things. But we will never know because everyone acted like grownups.

Preliminary injunction hearing is set for Thursday brother that will last until the permanent injunction hearing which you’ll probably be after this season.

Welcome to Louisiana Law bother

Thank you for telling us what we already know and acting like you are bringing new information here.

Not being aware of what LSU has been telling you because you hate LSU, does not excuse you.

The players in question will be held out by LSU until a final ruling. The penalties are too steep to risk it. Even LSU is not dumb enough to play them until a final ruling.

Penalties can't be applied retroactively.

It could all be a moot point if the judge rules against players this Thursday,
Remember, he would be ruling against the players, not the schools. If the players are ineligible then the schools won't play them. No harm, no foul.

Keep drinking the hater-aid!

The NCAA has a long history of stripping teams of wins.

You Ole Myth fans should be permabanned for quoting Tom Mars. Guy is a bona fide moron and was wrong at every turn during the LSU/Lane courting.
