re: Harlem Berry, Caden Durham

However, Harlem Berry and Caden Durham have been on the roster and has proven more than their worth; yet their touches are very limited and especially Berry, their touches has been limited for the past 2-3 years; yet they both stay on the active roster.


They tried to give Berry a series when the game was still competitive, he was lost from a blocking stand point. Was supposed to be the lead blocker for Leavitt on a designed run and Sam literally had to push him out of the way because he was just standing there lost.
What did the SEC expect the LA Attorney General to do, stay in the lawsuit without? The SEC has no claim against the AG.
Should know about Dent by the end of this month.

I think Clark is likely good, but not 100% clear of hurdles.

Both are big pieces. Without them, the backcourt is thin.

Both could have issues as the season progress based on appeals (assuming preliminary injunctions are granted).

If you can't have an intelligent conversation, resort to threats of violence. Solid strategy.

I'm sorry you are struggling to understand the language in the SEC's rule and the reality that Wright and Harris were different than other players on SEC rosters (it's an arbitrary distinction, but a distinction nonetheless). Sorry you are struggling to understand the SEC is not going after our international guys because it impacts other schools and other sports. But don't let things like words in a rule change your narrative.

Well I'm trying to draw a picture for you and you're blind.


Drawing pictures seems like the appropriate level for you, likely with a crayon. Good luck.
quote:

Wright and Harris went to training camp the others didn’t. Pretty cut and dry in the rule they challenged.


Arguing with this guy seem fruitless. He's struggling to connect some pretty basic dots.
quote:

Several SEC schools also had former NFL players on their rosters and LSU was the only team that they sued and tried to expel.


None had players that had been on a preseason roster. Notice the rule explicitly avoids NFL minicamps.

There have been several articles on how the SEC intentionally left off international leagues from the list provided in the rule, so as not to impact international players. You can argue with me all you want, but you still will be wrong.
quote:

None of that is going to stop the SEC from trying to prevent just LSU from rostering any foreign players.


The SEC rule actually goes out of its way to avoid saying that international players are ineligible. Largely because several of the SEC schools have international basketball players, tennis players, etc.

This may be a dumb question for these 5 guys, but does anyone know when their hearings are? Or how long the process is?


Santos is out.

There is no "hearing" per se. They are just waiting on a decision from the NCAA.
Yeah. Like I said above, once you throw in Luis, there are three unknowns.
quote:

I mean it's not hard...

Guards: Dent, Clark, Divine, Nunez, Bashir

Wings: Luis, Niang, Mo

Bigs: Ruzic, Dessert, Levy

Then add walk ons and maybe one surprise. Luis is pretty much the only true question mark at this point.


There seems to be 3 unknowns. Would include walk ons and a potential "surprise" player. Interesting.
quote:

So he said 15, i keep seeing 13 players, so are there 1-2 other players that no one has reported on?


Who is the 13th? With Santos out, I think we're missing 3 spots.
quote:

Yeah I don’t think Santos will be making it over


Wade just said expressly he won't be on this team.
quote:

My only confusion is if the internationals are eligible, why are they not listed on the current roster?


If they are eligible, then everybody is being very quiet about it. I've heard of decisions being made in the last few weeks on other international players (at other programs), but not on any of ours. In fairness, the NCAA doesn't publicly announce those decisions, so if the school and player kept it quiet, then they could.
Doesn’t on paper mean they are currently technically eligible? The internationals are the opposite of that, there is no current decision from the NCAA and on all but the two younger bigs, I expect them to need litigation based on other recent decisions from the NCAA.

Now, Dent and Clark are currently eligible on paper.
As I mentioned above, Clark and Dent are now in different lawsuits.

Different jurisdiction do it differently, but generally a TRO is temporary, and a preliminary injunction is intended to last while the case is pending. If the NCAA wins and the preliminary injunction request is denied, then the NCAA can deem the players ineligible.

Yes, the important question is whether these cases ultimately result in a preliminary injunction.
quote:

I think the only player that is still "up in the air" is Luis. That could get ugly quick.

The others seem to be eligible "on paper", but still need the final say from the NCAA, which of course is dragging their feet because it is LSU and Will Wade.


The internationals are not eligible on paper at this point. Clark and Dent are eligible on paper at this point.
quote:

Temporarily Eligible under TRO; Preliminary Injunction Hearing 9/29

6. Dent - 25
7. Clark - 152


That is not 100% accurate. Skyy Clark was originally part of the California case, but withdrew (voluntarily dismissed his claims) from that case and joined the Kentucky case, Wells vs. NCAA (Jefferson County Circuit Court). A preliminary injunction has been granted in that case and the NCAA lost its request for emergency appeal. So as of today, Skyy Clark has a preliminary injunction and there will be no emergency appeal of that decision. Given that we are in September, there is a good chance that the Kentucky state court won't have a trial on the merits until after April 2027.

Clark should be good.

ETA. News reports are a little murky as to next steps. Could have some hurdles left to clear.

He wouldn’t agree to a reduced amount in order to get a lump sum, so there was no advantage or incentive to not just pay him out over time.


Disagree. If he has another job waiting, he will likely agree to a reduced lump sum payment. That's fairly common in this context, Miles did the same thing when he took the Kansas job.

Not sure they still do that since you can stream the game the LSUSports App.

If a player is ruled ineligible by the SEC LSU admin won’t let WW play him.If they wouldn’t let LK roster those 2 players do you think they will let Wade.


The decision not to roster Harris and Wright was to a large degree influenced by the CFP's threat to not consider teams with players that had played in an NFL Training Camp.

Don't have that issue with basketball because the NCAA Selection Committee is part of the NCAA - unlike the CFP which is a standalone entity.
