Technically not, but it strengthens their pitch.

In case you haven’t noticed, the courts don’t seem too inclined to let these entities police themselves.

After the way this shitshow has transpired the last 2 weeks with 15 SEC programs loading up the pitchforks and arming Greg Sankey to go to battle, this conference has no business policing themselves.

Yep. It is severely disappointing that so many can't see how big of a disaster this response actually is for all 16 schools.

The whole thing is a nightmare on public display for the nation to see.

We (the SEC) acted like a bunch of uneducated, inexperienced, backwoods heehaws forming a posse of 15 school presidents & administrators and they armed the equivalent of "Ernest T. Bass" to represent this conference in a federal lawsuit.

Kiffin has literally said from the fricking beginning of this that he would follow the SEC's guidance.


Then why didn't he follow their guidance from the fricking beginning of this?
Sankey and the SEC apparently didn't take him at his word, which is understandable. The threat of voting LSU out was what got him to follow through.

Kiffin stated before the Clemson game that LSU would absolutely comply with the SEC's new professional sports rule. And LSU did just that. The threat of voting LSU out became public yesterday.

He did and said he would before we stomped Clemson.

Do you even know how hot it was today in Birmingham? Maybe it was postponed due to the heat.

The summons for all the different parties weren't issued by the Court until yesterday. They have to have been served adequate notice to have a hearing set the next day. There is also the issue of the necessity for an expedited hearing given what has happened between their filing and today. Given LSU can no longer roster any more players, why does the SEC need emergent relief? That emergent need for a TRO is now moot. They're going to have a hard time showing the need for emergency and expedited relief at this point. The remainder of their petition is a request for a declaratory judgment on their constitutional right to self govern. That doesn't have to be heard on an expedited basis


We have a rare sight here! It's an LSU fan and Rant regular that has common sense. It's like seeing a unicorn or Bigfoot.... amazing.

LSU's newly retained attorneys out of Birmingham most likely are the applicants for the continuation, considering they haven't had ample time to even form their case or defense. I would imagine part of this judge granting them their continuation was to remove the possibility of any emergent actions on LSU's part - i.e. closing those two roster spots and possibly a little "slap on the wrist" for Kiffin and the President/AD behind closed doors promising not to do anything untoward until the day in court

The only reason Arkansas wants LSU kicked out is it will be one less loss on their record in conference play every year

Lsu got scared and cut their NFL recruits. The sec got the upper hand and has no reason to go farther.

We will hear LSU is going to suspend Kiffin, imo.

So did you hear it or is it your opinion? It’s either / or. This will not happen. Sankey knows he screwed up. Best is for all parties to just drop it and go about their business. We got a$$es to kick and name to take. Geaux Tigahs.

It's amazing to me that you rubes don't understand that this would happen. No reason to rush things in court. You're not gonna be able to do it again until next year.
