The first two players taken in this year's NFL draft were four-year college players.
You misspelled, "Iron Bowl."

Sincerely, an LSU fan.
Fran Tarkenton belongs.
Rickey Jackson belongs.
Even if they HAD told the players, "You need to have your rights established in court like other players have done," so, what?

Not sure the league has any privity with the individual athletes sufficient to provide the bases of suits.
"Guys, a a school can't take you under the current circumstances. The proper way to be cleared is to have a court declare you eligible, as people like the Ole Miss quarterback have done."

Sankey: "That's a violation."

Response: "Of what?"
How would suggesting that a kid go to court to have his rights established be deemed improper? That's what other players have been doing.
... the judicial system. Thus, even if the vague and heretofore-unsubstantiated suggestions that the players may have been advised to obtain judicial declarations in court were true... so, what?
is the SEC asking any court order or judgment to say?
Incorrect. "Individual" there means sued in their individual capacities, which they have been.
You are confusing the nature of the allegations with the contacts with the forum state sufficient to create personal jurisdiction. There is not personal jurisdiction if the contacts are merely in their representative capacities.

And they HAVE been sued in their individual capacities, which is why they are named as separate defendants in the lawsuit. Thus, the court needs personal jurisdiction over them individually, which, depending on the defendants' nature of their contacts with Alabama, the court may not have.
For the downvoter:

As recognized by Alabama federal courts, "personal jurisdiction over corporate officers and employees in their individual capacity may not be predicated merely upon personal jurisdiction over the corporation itself; rather, a court must look to the individual and personal contacts, if any, of the officers and employees with the forum state."
... if those defendants' contacts with Alabama are merely in their capacities as LSU's representatives.
The premium economy fares are more than three times the economy fares. Does the board feel the increased price is worth it?

Again, asking only about one way coming back to the U.S., and not overnight.

Thank you.
Does anyone think it might benefit us to wait to book international flights for this December, under the theory that prices may drop? Thanks a lot.
