There is no Curse

Both players would still be hurt if wearing another number.

I’ve never seen a fanbase hate a “players tradition” as much as LSU.

At this point, “Iran wants to make a deal” needs to be the FREE SPACE on the 2026 bingo card.

Hell, can we get a Kalshi market on which day Trump makes his weekly “Iran wants a deal” announcement?

am certain I read that the meeting g was called specifically to consider expulsion and that it was the only item on the agenda.

No. The meeting has been on the books for months. The change was the “vote”, and now they aren’t going to vote. Business as usual now.

I think this is his last stop

He idolizes Saban

He knows what Saban thinks of this place and Saban regretted his decision to leave. That carries a lot of weight.

He has the contract, resources, NIL, recruiting etc. I could keep going, but you get the picture

Too headstrong? I’d argue LSU understands the art of war pretty well. Sometimes you give up a battle to put yourself in a better position to win the war.

LSU filling the 105-man roster took most of the teeth out of the SEC’s argument. Those disputed players aren’t on the roster. If the SEC now continues pursuing expulsion, bans or punishment against LSU, it has to justify punishing a member school for challenging a rule rather than actually violating one.

And now the players can pursue their own claims. Discovery in those cases could become uncomfortable for the SEC because it could expose how these players were treated, which schools recruited or communicated with them, and whether the SEC applied its position consistently across its membership.

Meanwhile, LSU has a team capable of winning the SEC, making the CFP and competing for a national championship.

THAT is the war. LSU doesn’t need to keep fighting every battle today when the courts may fight this one for them.

LSU isn't rostering Wright and Harris, so they conceded there. But the SEC is going after LSU for recruiting Wright & Harris because they were pro's. Then added a "Lost institutional Control" against LSU because of what Lane said at half-time. So they go after LSU for things detrimental to the SEC and want to now see if they have authority to expel.

---

First, the players will now sue SEC / Sankey over this. By doing so, they will pull back the curtain on other schools that recruited these players. Those other presidents don’t want that.

Lanes words at half time is a nothing burger.

Filling the 105 man roster took the teeth out of the suit. Continuing to pursue punishment will backfire on SEC and presidents that would vote to expel and expose their actions on the players.

At the end of the day, LSU did not break any rules. Players sued the ncaa and won eligibility. The SEC blocked those players, LSU did not roster these players as SEC wanted. LSU left the door open to roster based on future rulings which is their right and to keep from future lawsuits. SEC threatened expulsion based of possible actions on court rulings. Now find themselves in another lawsuit.

But let’s be honest here, SEC being reactive and not proactive is why we are here today. Sankey couldn’t define a pro player and didn’t know 5/5 ruling. Before June, any player that left school and pursued an nfl career was never allowed back, but ncaa / sec created this grey area. Since there’s a grey area, they threaten to expel LSU. This isn’t action to correct “loss of institutional control” it’s an action to save face by the sec.

What did they do wrong?

SC / Texas / Missouri - all rostered “pros”.

First, you’re forgetting Missouri, Texas and South Carolina that actually rostered players.

Second, that would then open up other teams that recruited players, which Harris mentioned and would testify too.
