And all of these people who are saying “this is not worth it”, that’s exactly what they’re not understanding. It’s not about the players playing anymore. It’s about LSU being attacked when nobody else is. No fan should be OK with that ever. Why do we have to follow rules that other people don’t? Does that make any sense?


The lawsuit today made that pretty clear.

Alabama can play a pro basketball player with no repercussions.

LSU gets sued just for thinking about it.

Sounds like we could just end the hearing, Jorden has made up his mind

we aren't going to list them on the roster or play them.



And you know that for sure? The suit was filed prior to the deadline of announcing the roster, when it should have never been an issue in the first place. If LSU wins this thing later on down the road its not insane to think a court decision would supersede another one of the SEC's "rules"

It is absolutely worth it if the "rules" are not equally applied to all member institutions



This is pride getting in the way of reason.

I get it. It should be fair and it isn't.

They are making an example of LSU and its only going to get worse. This level of distraction, bad will, negative press, etc is just not worth it.

It was worth it for OM because Chambliss is a QB

These guys are backups.

Chambliss's eligibility does not violate SEC rules. He never signed a professional contract, unlike Wright and Harris, among others.



SEC issued more than one rule. You are correct that Chambliss didn't violate the rule concerning professional contracts (although the SEC commissioner just mere hours ago could not even explain what constitutes becoming a professional).

But they also confirmed their stance with the NCAA that players would have 5 years to play 5 seasons. Chambliss is entering year 6.

The NCAA may step in soon. They do NOT want this argument to end up in Federal courts, because they are very likely to lose the exemptions the whole thing is built upon.

Can the judge compel him to answer or have I watched too many law and order reruns?

I have a feeling Judge Jorden's judgment will be extremely harsh

The federal court stuff won't be fun though

Do you honestly think the SEC is suing a founding member institution simply for some "backups"

They are suing LSU because we are challenging the status quo of not rocking the boat and letting the SEC play favorites. shite dude we re-hired Will fricking Wade

No, a good (and expected) response from LSU will be a simple 12(b)6 motion: failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.

Kentucky is already being sued for backing off a player that had a court order to play and they followed SEC rules, Simms vs NCAA, they were added as Defendant August 31st, they will add SEC soon I would expect it maybe KY will add them.

This is pure arrogance of the weak little bitch Sankey, he has everyone in a catch 22 legal mess now. SEC will be writing big checks for his little dick measuring contest and he signed his own death warrant. Tony was way way to easy on him, I will pay anyone to let me take his deposition. It would be the most fun I have ever had in law.

Sounds like Sankey has talked out both sides of his face one too many times for the judges’ liking.
