Not the NCAA. The Big 12 Conference. That’s who changed the ruling, and that’s who is responsible for enforcing the suspension under NCAA rules. The NCAA is just rubber-stamping the Big 12’s decision. Which is even worse IMO.

It raises the obvious question of how a conference we aren’t even a member of can enforce a suspension against an LSU player, especially when their only (apparent) action was sending a letter to the player’s former school after he had decided to transfer.

The whole thing is pretty silly. If it’s not required to be disclosed as part of the transfer clearinghouse process, it shouldn’t be enforceable - particularly in an entirely different conference. If it is required to be disclosed, it would mean UH didn’t fulfill their obligations in the transfer process (unless this is all BS and they actually notified LSU but that seems unlikely at this point).

But.. here we are, I suppose.

It’s not like the Houston game wasn’t televised and rules infraction data isn’t available. Do your homework. Simple as that.


The penalty he got doesn't result in a suspension. The officials changed it AFTER the game and notified Houston weeks later via the big 12. The big 12 didn't notify LSU 5 months later. Houston didn't notify LSU 5 months later. Nobody notified the player 5 months later.

How the frick was LSU supposed to know a ruling was changed after the game? They didn't play in the game or in the conference.

The NCAA cleared him to play at LSU. Wouldn't it be reasonable to expect the governing body of college football to say "hey, he's good to transfer and play. He has a half game suspension to serve"? Is that so hard to understand?

The NCAA supposedly exists for shite like this.

We have another player that had the same situation. He was not suspended. Are we supposed to ask the NCAA to review the actions of every player we sign from the portal if the officials changed their penalty after the game? The NCAA dropped the ball here, not LSU.

This is a stupid fricking post. You don’t pull an offer to a guy you know you need because he might have to miss a fricking half.

Then there’s the fact that there WAS NO WAY FOR LSU TO KNOW HE WAS SUSPENDED. The penalty was officially recorded as unsportsmanlike and the Big 12 notified Houston directly about the mistake. Haulcy didn’t know. The fricking NCAA didn’t know. How the frick were we supposed to find out? Even if someone from LSU had contacted Houston, which we had no reason to do, do you think they would isn’t shared this after we just took their starting Safety after Spring Football?

Some of you are being ridiculous twisting yourselves into logic pretzels to try and blame someone at LSU for this. It’s pathetic.
