8/9
This is the correct answer. All the Top 10 squads pretty much balled out, and we probably only jump over A&M and Ole Miss if the Rebs look like arse against Louisville.
I think we most likely end up at 9, but the question is “how good is the Ole Miss defense?”
Lots to replace on that side of the ball for them.

He said it was a thing where he knew where the desk was going and went opposite.
That’s fricking WILD.
Maybe it’s just me, but I see a lot of Jota in Munoz.
You couldn’t pour rice between the fans in that stadium!

Closing that out the way we did was huge. That’s a building block for sure. Araujo will get better as he settles in. The defense will shape to mold.
Our attack is wild. We may be about to go on a tear.

Damn close. I love that we are getting runs in behind from Isak now.

I’ll be the first to say I wanted Gakpo gone all year last year. My tune has changed drastically since his World Cup campaign started.
Gakpo is absolutely unplayable right now. Just gets in the right space almost every single time and makes silky smooth passes and through balls.

Hold onto your butts, boys…
College football could change forever, Stanley could be ousted at the SEC, or both. And those aren’t even the only possible implications. :lol:

Changing the rules now doesn't just affect the players in this case. That affects every single player in this conference.
Irony.
quote:
Says this judge doesn't need to solve all of college sports. His job is to decide if going to professional sports ends their ability to participate in collegiate sports.
Bold strategy, Cotton. :lol:
Not a good look trying to tell the judge what is and is not his job. (If that is indeed the context in which it was delivered.)
Also, he is attempting to pull the will over everyone’s eyes that this ruling has no influence on the future of college football… He may need to convince future clients that he isn’t responsible for such foolishness by means of insanity.
quote:
Lsu is a voluntary member of this conference and are bound by the rules of the conference.
Be careful what you wish for, SEC. This could very well set the stage for LSU stepping away from the conference after the football season ends.
Slippery slope, when other voluntary member institutions are doing the same as them.
quote:
Sorsby did something that has historically gotten people banned from their sports altogether. He also committed actual crimes (underaged gambling, using proxies), he's lucky to have not been arrested if we're being frank.
It's not near the same situation as this at all
I get that, but they were still the institution attached to the situation similar (not exactly the same as) to LSU in this case.
Also, he brought up TTU/Sorsby, not me. :lol:

No. In fact that is what my entire opinion on this situation is based on.
There is no planet on which winning this battle in court and having these two guys on the team is worth the petty vindictiveness that would follow for years. It just isn’t. The only reason anyone on this site feels differently is because it’s LSU.
Wouldn’t a ruling in favor of the players against the SEC/NCAA effectively lay out a basis of protection for potential future arguments where LSU has standing over those matters?
This is already clear institutional bullying. Why lay down and take it without a fight?
quote:
This isn’t the hill. They have a colorable and reasonable distinction between us and Texas etc. it may be stupid but they can state it. It isn’t “baseless”.
Is a contract something that can be used in a way to avoid the same punitive action by a 501(c)3 organization that is being used against a different member, especially if the rules are entirely unclear (and under oath, admittedly unknown) by the leader of that organization?
quote:
correct. The entire football world is telling us to stop. Why we don’t, I don’t know.
Did you never learn about “peer pressure” and how it can enable negative social constructs?
quote:
Even Texas Tech listened when everyone told them stop over Soresby despite a chance they could win in court.
They accepted the smear campaign against their school and gave up.
I don’t speak for everyone hear, but I am proud of the school I support for standing up against shoddy institutions selectively penalizing and smearing member entities that are there voluntarily and don’t HAVE to be a party to their BS. Especially considering the revenue LSU brings to the SEC table.
Affect change when it makes sense. It makes sense to more than just LSU right now to die on this hill. This is a potentially a monumental moment in the history of college athletics, and already is momentous in the history of the most powerful sports conference within that sphere.

Oh, so intangible nonsense with no practical analysis of what actual events would benefit LSU post-judgment.
Not a hateful question here:
Are you intentionally ignoring the potential of focused future attempts at institutional retribution, which have been not-so-subtly indicated as viable by this case and a new federal filing today?
It’s not a new concept that a bully will push you around until you stand up for yourself.
This is classic, albeit poorly veiled, institutional bullying.

It’s not contempt, but unless you’re fresh out of law school you’re getting an arse clapping from a magistrate if you file a suit clearly intended to circumvent a state court order 500 miles away
So there IS merit to the thought. Highly unethical, it seems, but not contemptuous?

They are trying to find a legal way to get a federal court to overrule a state court, which means they have to find some federal law. It is a hail mary.
It is not criminal to file suit.
No, but contempt of court is.
Sounds contempt-y to a non-lawyer.

The board would be better without one. All that happens is SCH and other MU turds (much love, fellas) pop into the thread of whoever they are talking laying that week to either gloat accordingly or silently seethe as they are too coward to comment after a loss in said thread. :lol:
