Ya'll know we self reported this right? If you are looking for someone to blame, may want to start with Bo Bahnsen and our True Detective compliance dept. Idiotic to turn yourself in over such a ridiculous rule.

This is from the SEC office. You know, the offices located in Birmingham, Alabama.

Y'all sure this wasn't Ugo Amadi, who I thought was an EE and quickly left after the Chavis departure?


"Amadi will sign his financial aid agreement with LSU and enroll in time for the spring semester."

I don't think we had a choice. this is what Womack's dad said back in the fall.

quote:

"LSU is not using it because if Matt was to change his mind they would have to report it," he said.


Best believe if we didn't self-report, Bama would have.

The hypocrisy that is the SEC office.

Nick Saban and his staff must be choir boys who are in no need of confession. Funny how Alabama gets their way with scheduling and special treatment. My God man, can Mike Slive and his arse wipes be any more bias towards the Alabama Universities.

From now on, frick His holiness Nick Saban and his servant Paul Finebaum. frick the hypocrisy of the SEC and their blatant cheating. Slive can get fricked up the arse royally. He can die tomorrow for all I care. I am fed up with LSU getting fricked in the arse.

Yes. Because typically self reporting lessens the penalty. Also the self reporting comes out when they know someone is breathing down their neck, SEC/NCAA, so it doesn't become giant shite show.

The problem is the rule itself.

Explain this to me. Does this mean LSU can not sign any early at all for the next 2 years or they can't sign any with FAA before they enroll in school in Jan. Mike D just said on the radio that the early enrollee thing is "small potatoes". Why would he think that if if means we can't sign any early enrollees? It seems like a big deal to me.



My understanding is that early enrollees CAN be signed BUT no financial agreement student aide wise. They need to be able to 1) afford the difference (I didn't think there was one but whatever) or 2) qualify for financial aide apart from the athletic department.

1.) The SEC for penalizing us at all and not letting the NCAA handle it
2.) the NCAA for making a shitty rule

The title of the thread needs to be changed. This is a BIG deal...particularly not allowing early enrollees for two years. "Slapped" makes it sounds trivial - this is not trivial in nature by any means.

You think we were gonna receive serious penalties for this ridiculous BS? The NCAA is totally incompetent, and besides, the story is reporting the SEC handed down the penalties. The penalties are way too severe, which is a problem, but this would have never been an issue if we don't self report. Bo Bahnsen is a menace to our football program.

That is not a sanction. No Financial Aid Agreements does not equal no early enrollment.

Exactly. Not just the no financial aide agreements, but 10% of our eval days are gone. Which is a lot.

So... we didn't use the unlimited contact allowed by the FAA, trying to avoid violations, but get punished by the SEC anyway as if we did, just because he decommitted? How does that make sense?
