I’m embarrassed by all of the weak kneed responses to the “pro” players

they did not play one down in the pros.....and the NCAA blew this one from the get-go. ...... If the 5 for 5 ruling, that was passed after this group having to declare, it would have included these deserving players, none of this would have happened.

It is a debacle that was avoidable! The weakness of the NCAA is the underlying problem here.

I hear you. So many scared chicken littles on here coming out of the woodwork after they were ruled eligible. And the really pathetic part is these dudes aren’t actually “pro” players lol.

Partly the NFL's fault too for their dumb pre-season games. You've got these low IQ mob mentality that are saying they played in NFL games....Preseason is glorified practices to get the roster down to regular season games.

I don't agree. I think LSU and CLK have been quite bold. And the fan base has been VERY supportive. If you mean not adding these new guys to the roster who have successfully gotten relief legally from the SEC preventing them from playing by threatening teams and universities, I only say this.

The legal battles are not over. The stakes are incredibly high so knowing the short and long term ramifications of each move is really important. Adding them to the roster could cost the university, coaches, and players significantly by weakening our position in pending litigation. If we want to win out on this we can't make bodacious but dumb decisions.

I don't know if we roster them or not. However, just with the known facts on hand it looks like poking a finger in the SECs eye (which we haven't done so far) might be just what the crazies in the league want. We need to know more about how the appeals and pending lawsuits might pan out before we tell the league to shove it.

Or maybe there are people who think 3 or 4 steps ahead, instead of just what's in front of them.

Propaganda works. This is no different than weak-minded people thinking all the dumb political nonsense they hear on CNN is true. SEC wanted a narrative created and has the money and pull to get it distributed to the masses.

Retards love propaganda.

It's a whitepaper on propaganda and messaging.

Reasonable people can have an opinion on either side. But, this argument is simply being won based on oversimplified, coordinated, terminology like "NFL Players".

It impacts those who really don't understand the details. But, it also impacts people like you are talking about who are just afraid and aren't capable of standing up to the mob.

If they were pro players, they would be on a roster like Pyburn and Weeks

Neither one of these guys has played a single down in the NFL, including the preseason.

Kiffin is trolling a system in desperate need of reform. If this is what it takes to address the transfers and lack of loyalty for pay, then I love it.
