Which is the most absurd line to draw in all this. It's ridiculous to claim that there is some significant difference between players that make training camps and get cut vs those that make it to mini camps and get cut.

I don't really disagree with you on the merits. The NFL thing is primarily optics and- go back to #1- this is theater to drive ratings.

LSU= villain in the public's mind.

Just embrace that (like the team has) and enjoy the show.

All the LSU Leadership has to do is say they agree with it. Then there is no loss of control.

It's laughable that you're taking this seriously tho

Conduct unbecoming I do believe.

They aren't on the roster because of the lawsuits you idiot. You tried to cheat and failed.

You LSU fanboys are in straight up denial mode.

If Alabama tried doing this ya'll would riot in the streets. FACTS. Tell me I'm wrong.

They aren't on the roster because the conference made a ruling. No lawsuit ruled in favor of what the SEC is trying to do dumb frick. LSU would be perfectly legal to play them based on current rulings. They accepted the bullsgit and the fact Sankey is still pushing is gonna frick him

What rule did LSU break?

The SEC alleges LSU violated several specific rules:

1. SEC Professionalism Rules (adopted Aug. 25, 2026)
Member schools are barred from rostering any athlete who:

Previously declared for the NFL, NBA, or WNBA draft without withdrawing
Signed a professional contract with a team affiliated with those leagues
Was listed on a professional roster
This rule was adopted 15–0, with LSU president Wade Rousse abstaining. The players at the center are former Ole Miss players tight end Dae'Quan Wright and defensive tackle Zxavian Harris, both of whom signed NFL contracts this summer.

2. Intraconference Transfer Rule
Wright and Harris are former Ole Miss players, making their move to LSU an intraconference transfer outside the designated portal window — a separate violation.

3. Article 6 of the SEC Constitution — Institutional Control
The SEC's amended filing alleges a "lack of institutional control over the athletics program at LSU," pointing to the fact that President Rousse and Athletic Director Verge Ausberry remained silent while Lane Kiffin publicly challenged the rules and pursued the players.

4. First Amendment Right of Expressive Association
The SEC frames the core legal claim as LSU forcing the conference to associate its brand, media rights, and championships with conduct it publicly condemns — arguing that violates the conference's constitutional right of expressive association.

The SEC notes that LSU itself voted in favor of the professionalism ban but then pursued the players anyway, and that Kiffin's post-Clemson comments reiterating his objections "stand in sharp contrast to the silence by the President and Athletic Director."

So they even supported the rule then followed it but hedged bets. Seems like a logically sound move to me
