re: Shough=HIM

It's amazing watching this QB play. Some people just have it, and Shough has it. We are so fortunate as a fanbase to get a QB like this out of the draft. If the front office puts the pieces around him, we are going to be competitive for the next decade.
Those replay officials were looking to add time to that game. They weren’t just looking at the replay and seeing if there should be any time left, they were actively trying to find that extra second. That isn’t how things should work. They should be presented with the replay and rule on the question from the refs instead of actively looking for a result. If you search you typically find what you’re looking for.
Whats the record for LSU QB running touchdowns in a game?
Of course the players care. You don't realize that what the SEC did was to screw over the players? You don't think all the players from 2022 who can't get their fifth year don't talk to the ones currently on the team? Yes, the players care, and yes, it pisses them off what the SEC did. Don't be surprised if you hear some chirping from our own players.
If the meeting at the governor's mansion is the cause of all this uproar then it makes the SEC look even worse. They've screwed over the whole 2022 class - people who should have been afforded a chance to come back to college, over something that had nothing to do with them. If the SEC is really using that excuse to cover their concerns over this meeting then they look even worse than I could have imagined. This whole conference is a joke and should be put down. I hope whatever this meeting was with the governor, it means LSU can get out of this clownshow of a conference.
Any penalty on LSU could be a violation of the TRO that is in effect. I don't think the SEC will even want to chance this going back in front of the judge in Baton Rouge. This whole thing is over for now, but don't be surprised if it flares back up again with all these liberal university Presidents we got running things now. Our time in this conference is most likely over, it doesn't make sense to stay somewhere you're not wanted and where you know you won't get treated fairly.
The continued court case that was scheduled for today has been rescheduled without a new date. The main issue that was to be discussed was the SEC's right to expel a member institution without offering any legal recourse. Therefore, I believe the likelihood of a vote to expel a member institution has been canceled. While they will still hold a meeting to criticize LSU and Lane Kiffin, it is unlikely that anything will come from it. If they attempt to impose any penalties, they will likely end up back in court.

We need to leave the SEC. The individuals in Birmingham have revealed their true biases. How can we compete knowing that those in charge are against our institution? LSU should not remain in this situation without a change in leadership. We should even demand a move away from Birmingham. It's essential for LSU's leaders to consider all options; failing to do so would be a dereliction of their duty.
A marriage is emotional. Business should be based on the money. They're threatening "divorce" based on emotions, and not money. This is exactly why we cannot stay unless changes are made at the top of the SEC.
Staying would be worse. Your wife hands you divorce papers, and then changes their mind and you're supposed to act like nothing's changed? You can't go back to the way things were.
There is no sense. From what we know. Unless there is a smoking gun, this is his way of dismantling the SEC

This isn't over. LSU is done with the SEC though. Can't see how you can stay in a conference when its been made clear you won't get a fair shake.
Bridges have burned. LSU is out, no matter how the vote goes
At this point LSU should be considering the posibility. You know Bama or Ole Miss will use their connections to get LSU investigated for any little thing in the future and the SEC office in Birmingham will happily go along. Our time in the SEC may be done and I for one am glad if this is how little they think of Louisiana.
Its 100% the logical thing to do. You don't reconcile unless things change drastically
Do we want to be in the SEC still? The conference is obviously against us. If all 15 other members vote to expel, we'd be in a snakepit. They'll find any other reason to threaten expulsion in the future. I think our time here is OVER. LSU admin needs to realize this and start making plans.
LSU is gone. Not today, not this year, but they are gone. You dont stay in a club that sues you. You don't stay in a club that is 15-1 against you.
I think too many bridges have already been burned. If indeed 15 other members want to kick LSU out of the SEC, there is no reason to fight to stay. Instead, LSU should be searching for a new "family" and at the same time, preparing to fight in court as you know lawsuits will be going back and forth for maybe decades. The ramifications are "nuclear" as the OP says. This is so dumb, as having this occur because of 2 players that are not rostered is beyond unnecessary. Either its egos dictating this conference or there is more to this behind the scenes. If there is more, why hasn't it been included in the amended court filings? This all does not make sense, but the longer it goes, the harder it'll be to come back. Things might have already gone too far and its a damn shame.
At this point LSU is probably done with the SEC. Unless the conference has a come to Jesus moment and apologize and prostrate itself, the school would be stupid to remain in the conference long term. You know there’s no way the admin at LSU is going to be okay with whatever happens in the next two days. Whether they win in federal court tomorrow or if there’s a vote on Thursday, the writing is on the wall. I think at this point there is no way to reconcile and that LSU’ time in the SEC is over. If they stay after all that has happened they should be laughed at. Even if LsU agrees to stay they should be working in the background for an exit or for a complete overhaul of the powers running the conference.
At this point how can LSU remain in the SEC? Bridges are burning. How can we ever abide being treated as an unwanted stepchild? How can we get a fair shake in games, scheduling, and any other conflicts that’s arise in the future. I say it has gone too far and it is time to divest. Countersue the hell out of Stankey, the SEC, and all other members if they vote to expel.
