The legal battle involving Dae'Quan Wright and Zxavian Harris isn't over just yet.
According to The Advocate, attorney Tony Clayton said Tuesday night that the players' legal team plans to pursue legal action against SEC commissioner Greg Sankey, the SEC and the NCAA — but not LSU.
Clayton believes the SEC and NCAA essentially forced LSU to move on from Wright and Harris after the Tigers filled their final two roster spots with Gabriel Reliford and Aidan Anding.
He also claims the conference's handling of the situation has damaged Wright and Harris' reputations and hurt their potential NIL value.
"They completely destroyed the character of these players, the credibility of these players," Clayton told The Advocate, adding that the SEC put a "scarlet letter" around the neck of the athletes.
Wright and Harris had previously won a preliminary injunction allowing them to pursue another season of college football, but LSU's roster is now full at the 105-player limit.
