so it's a shame the football guys generational wealth while others get zero


No it's not considering the amount of money the football players generate.

And not all football guys get paid that well...

Yes or no, do ANY nfl veterans participate in minicamp? If yes, then minicamp is “professional” Sankey has no argument.

Sankey did say he does not consider mini camp participation to be professional but he does consider training camp participation as making a football player a professional.


So is Stankey just giving his opinion or is he basing this on official rules, guidance etc?

Because thats the exact line that allows him to target LSU.

LSU needs to counter sue. Period.

Maybe this whole thing will be thrown out on grounds that Sankey is retarded.

in the court of law you generally just shut the frick up and do whatever your lawyer tells you...take that as you will as to the conversation he had while under oath

no it isn’t.

revenue share comes directly from the school itself as a percentage of revenue generated by the athletic department.


NIL is any 3rd party deal (schools can help land/negotiate the deals) you can land that pays you for using your Name, Image, or Likeness.
basically same thing as endorsements in professional leagues, just called something different.

So the next question I hoped he was asked, was “why?”

Sankey is being intellectually dishonest by drawing distinctions between NFL players being professional athletes and college players being just "college students." Today's college football players are professional athletes. Most will make more money in college off of things like NIL than they could ever make in the NFL. Jack Pyburn was forced to take a pay cut when the Chiefs claimed him and put him into a rookie contract. He would have made more money at LSU this year.

rule against professionalism still applied under the SEC bylaws

Ok, so why did they not say anything in all the other cases for both football and basketball. I would honestly be OK with the SEC or NCAA saying any player that received time due to a TRO/Injunction cannot play. That sets a level playing field for all involved.

From what I've seen about SEC standing issues in the Federal Suit, they allege tons of injuries of third-parties and mission-based injuries, both of which are not sufficient to grant standing after FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine decided in 2024.

However, reputational injury and brand injury are the best possible arguments for standing, but they were not well-pleaded. However, this probably won't get everyone dismissed at the 12(b)(1) motion stage.
