The SEC being sued is the most crucial part. That's what distinguishes this from all the previous matters.

they got accept that if they are going to be regulator, for the first time, that they will have to go to court sometimes. If they don't like that, leave it up to the NCAA to get their arse kicked in court.

or they can figure out a way to share revenue with players, force them to sign contracts and enfore elgiblity but they don't want that.

They're using their relationship with the other members of the conference to fill in the gaps that have been exposed in NCAA enforcement authority.

Wydett Williams (Ole Miss)
Trent Hendrick (James Madison)
TJ Harden (SMU)
Anthony Hankerson (Oregon State)
Blake Cotton (Utah)
DQ Smith (South Carolina)
Brylan Green (Arkansas)
Luke Drzewiecki (Minnesota)
Ckelby Givens (Southern)

Here are a couple of the plaintiffs from that case.

It would be funny if there was a vote to establish a specific court to hear member grievances or attempts to affect rules, and clearly it would be in Alabama

Sankey probably sucks at chess and poker.....
