Chicken probably forgot the password for that alter account. Can’t blame him, he has so many.
So how did he feel about the two LSU players that were left off the roster to make room for the players he cared so much for from Ole Miss? Did he not care about them? I understand they were added after this all went south.
Just curious, do you think the SEC might have some evidence? I’m not saying they do. But for Sankey and the rest of the SEC to be pushing so hard they might have some evidence of wrongdoing.
You brought up the bama basketball player. What happened in that case?
What ended up happening in that situation? After the court ruled?
I get it. And let’s be honest, the two players are not game changers. I don’t mean to demean them. Just extra asses. So it’s not some great advantage for LSU. Other than getting to add depth after signing day and the transfer portal is closed. So maybe a little bit of an advantage.
Or they are upset that another school is doing it after the ruling on the Alabama case. Not biased just irritated.
Just looked it up to see, but LSU’s final enrollment date for fall was September 2.
I get you’re a fan and that is all you will see. The rule was challenged in the Alabama basketball case. He lost his case. Ineligible. Why keep challenging the same rule over and over? And some fans of college football see this as harmful to the game.
I guess talking football upsets you. My point is why argue a point about an Alabama basketball player getting to play until the court ruled he couldn’t. And find a better argument.
Because the courts handled it. But a precedent has been set.
If by suddenly you mean during the Alabama case, then yes.
I don’t hate either. I just don’t understand why LSU fans keep bringing up that case to prove it’s ok. He was kicked off the team. Stick with the 5 for 5 rule and say they should have been allowed to come back.
No. That case shows there is a rule that they can’t play former pro players.
That case would seem to show the SEC does not allow players who signed professional contracts.
And he was ruled ineligible after 4 or 5 games. Then he was off the team. LSU fans keep throwing this out like it helps their case.
I was looking at the case of the basketball player at Alabama. Stated you could return in Division 3. But was ruled ineligible later. But I agree that if you sign a pro contract you should be ineligible. I just think it’s going to be brought up down the road with underclassmen that don’t make a NFL roster.
D3. That was what they tried to use. And was overturned and he was ruled ineligible after 4 or 5 games I think. But was not going to a D3 school. But they tried. I get the position any of the schools signing players that signed a pro contract are using. The 5 for 5 rule. But want to overlook the signed a pro contract. I’m looking at what doing so will change going forward. If these 40 plus or however many signed a pro contract become eligible that can open a pathway for underclassman with eligibility left to sue if they don’t make a pro roster.
I think the standards are based off the other sports. A high school baseball player can sign with a professional baseball minor league club and then go play college baseball if it doesn’t work out. That was the basis for the Alabama basketball players case. I looked over the case when you mentioned him. But the NFL has no minor league.
I’m not melting. I’m just talking football and sports. I know that doesn’t happen on this site anymore. But this is what it is like. My thoughts. Your thoughts. A back and forth exchange of ideas.
Yes he went to court to get the right to play. Then the court ruled against and he was off the team. So you could say a precedent was set.
