How can Sankey force LSU to break contract with South Alabama and lose out on home game revenue? I might be wrong, but I don't think Sankey or the SEC can legally do that. I know he's the big boss and all, but still.

He cannot.

He can only request.

And USA is no pushover. They beat one SEC team this year and would love the chance to pull an upset at LSU.

They'd likely tell Sankey to go frick himself and I wouldn't blame them.

Sankey made his bed with his vacillation and indecision.

Let him lie in it.

He can't "on his on". Discuss this ad infinitum, but the bottom line is LSU loses money under any conditions that this plays out. A UF forfeiture with some compensation to LSU is called for in any rational "other than SEC" business venture.
