quote:

If SEC schools were to coordinate to boycott/expel LSU over pro player additions, then it could be deemed an antitrust violation as a horizontal agreement to punish a rival for exercising a legally recognized right under a court order.

But there's a distinction between a boycott/expulson and a rule that could be deemed legitimate self-regulation. It may never get tested. This all becomes moot if the Louisiana court doesn't grant an injunction against the SEC and Greg Sankey or if an appeal results in a stay or reversal.

Interesting times.

They aren’t kicking us out. We are a founding member and at least half the league has signed or plans to sign a football or basketball player involved.

So then you have the most powerful or second most powerful league dissolving.

The sec would lose tv money without LSU. There isn’t another brand that they could get to come over to match what we bring to the table.

Florida would leave if they tried FSU or Miami and neither would want to come over considering they have been renegade programs.

The big 12 and Acc would be fighting for us as a life line to save their conference. I don’t think the big 10 would try to get us mainly based on being full and we don’t really fit with them academically.

End of the day it’s a bunch of clickbait and weird Ross Dellenger and Tom Mars attention porn. The court will either side with the ncaa and we won’t sign them or they will side with the players and we will and the sec will not risk punishing us and the others that are going to sign players. We would eat their lunch in court as well.

So unless the sec wants LSU, Alabama, Ole Miss lol, Mizzou and others on the open market they aren’t going to kick us out.

They do know that under fat Scott enough negative press made him go sit happily in the cuck chair. I think they will find verge doesn’t go sit in the corner.

This guy is a pretty good to follow for solid information. He doesn’t seem to have a dog in the hunt like Tom Mars bitch arse. He doesn’t just throw shite around like a monkey, hope it sticks, then not answer anyone that questions something. If you comment on one of his posts, there’s a good chance he’ll reply back to you. I’ve asked him for clarification on a few things and he’s replied back.

This was well reasoned and good until you said this

This is lazy, and paints more of a picture of you than it does Woodward.

It is nothing but scare tactics. They are following the Democratic playbook. I'm assuming Delly is a Dem, sure sounds like one if he isn't. Certainly not an alpha male.

Bottom line is there is nothing they can do if the court decides in favor of the players. You cannot be punished for following the rule of law. If they try, they open themselves up for huge lawsuits.

This is nothing but DEM101 playbook.

The large Scott absolutely let the media bully him and make decisions for him if they wrote mean things, he admitted it himself. Look I thought he would be a good AD but his record proves otherwise at this point. Thankfully he is gone

I'm sure the thought process is that they would use LSU to make an example of, and then everyone else would get in line

Why do people keep posting this?

Why would they be scared. They are 15 programs and we are 1 program.
Beyond Louisiana courts, they have more lawyers collectively. We are a voluntary member of the conference. We have agreed to governance by the conference.

They are not scared. This doesn't end completely with a Louisiana court ruling.

Regardless, LSU will eventually not go against the conference with a sword of Damocles like scenario pending further legal actions. Kiffin has already said that LSU is in consultation with the league office.
