They all have the same signee limit of 25 now so the risk is the same. If he doesn't qualify at TCU it simply goes down as a wasted spot as one of their possible 25 signees in 2013, the same as it would at LSU, Oregon, Boise, Duke, or anyone else in Division I.


no it's still not. The SEC is only allowed 25 LOIs period. Other conferences can take EEs to get to the initial counter number. It's maybe not obvious what that difference is but there is a difference.

To use this specific case, if LSU signs Lawson and he does not qualify, you cannot fill with an EE because SEC schools are counting LOIs and he signed one so he counts. TCU can because they are only counting towards initial counters and a kid that doesn't qualify is never an initial counter, regardless of number of LOIs. Hopefully that makes sense.

Every school in Division I is only allowed 25 LOIs period.

If you want to talk about what qualifies as an initial counter it is a different discussion and a different set of bylaws all together. The SEC bylaws would have to state specific differences from the NCAA in order for whatever you are trying to say to make sense, and I've yet to find where they spell out the differences as it pertains to the definition of an initial counter. If you could provide the link to the bylaw it would help in clarifying your point.
