they just won't roster the players.


Haven't they already been rostered? I thought I saw they were already practicing. Now, if the SEC wins will these rostered players still get their NIL or will they have to sue for it. Kind of like the guy is doing to Missouri.

No. Just one of the reasons this board is being idiotic about this.

The final roster isn't set until Friday. That's when we'll know.

I predict LSU doesn't roster these guys, too big of a risk.

So players that aren't on the roster can actually practice? Seems like a liability, if so.

Outside of specific active legal exceptions or using alumni/former players as scout-team props (a practice famously used by programs like Alabama), general students or unverified athletes cannot simply walk onto a college football field for regular team practices due to strict NCAA eligibility, insurance, and liability rules.


Saban had nfl players practicing with bama.

The Practice: Saban brought back former Crimson Tide stars like Trent Richardson (wearing a helmet and pads) and John Parker Wilson to act as scout-team players.


Its happened before.

I think it's pretty common; I'm sure they sign some type of waiver. From what I can tell, Wright was the only questionable player that practiced.

That's why I was asking. Being a business owner, I'm always thinking about how to mitigate liability. People will sue for anything nowdays.

When the SEC wins its appeal this Thursday or Friday and you have ineligible players on the roster on Saturday, then you will have broken it straight up.
LSU is going to follow court order like Lane has mentioned multiple times.

Yeah, there's no question there.

If the players get their injunction, then it starts to get dicey. I think the players still likely don't get rostered though.

Not a one and we don’t plan to. If the SEC & CFP say we have the greenlight on Thursday, it’s done. Plain and simple.

You'd be surprised how many LSU fans want this shite to be over with, regardless of the outcome.

I agree I don't want a precedent set that players that go pro can come back, but let's not act like the NCAA is innocent when they changed the eligibility rules a month after the NFL draft. The NCAA is like a government agency that deals with repercussions after the fact instead of properly planning beforehand. Just my 2 cents.

I'm an LSU fan and think it's terrible for college ball. NIL and unlimited portal were bad enough, this is the cherry on top. I hope we don't get to play these guys.

You can practice with guys not on the roster.

LSU’s official roster is due Friday, the day before their first game.

That is another rule that needs to be amended. They need to standardize it. The deadline for rosters for all teams should be the day before the first college game. And they need to standardize the date a player can enroll in a school, now it is all over the board. Some are past that date, some are not. But we don’t need to burn the whole sport of college football down over it.

I agree. And that's not because Paul Finebaum and the SEC rant are pissed off about it, but because the distraction is not worth it for LSU or any other school at this point.

Funny, everyone said Texas would blow this conference up.


It was the TX and MS courts and the NCAA and SEC weakness when it came to making rules that are blowing it up.

It's college sports version of Democrats vs. Republicans. Ya'll can discuss which is which. I'm pretty sure I know

Not sure you may. What LSU is doing is Capitalist in nature. That is not a left-wing thing. So basically, everyone against it are Democrats.

No worse than the NIL and open free agency that we have.

This is friggin great for college football. Maybe not in the way you think. This will hopefully cause everyone, in all conferences, to take a deep look at what college football has become and maybe, just maybe be the start of some serious rules to stop what has become wild. Then we can stop being Repubs and Demos and just be fans again.

With with rosters due by Friday… It’s something like a 24 hr window to make that decision.

So all the due diligence has to be done ahead of the ruling.
