Guess which two players? Yep, the two trying to play for LSU. Tell me again how there isn’t a vendetta against LSU

Isn't there a player playing for or practicing with Texas that is supposed to be ineligible to play? What gives there?

Didn't Tulane have a QB in the 1980s who got a TRO and it eventually got overturned so the NCAA vacated the wins?

But how do we get the SEC to pay those guys without penalizing LSU?

He was rostered but not playing. Sark used it as a virtue signal.

i am not justifying the rulings on these........but their guy didn't sign an UDFA contract, but he still practiced in 2 different rookie camps, but NO CONTRACT so the SEC says go for it.

our guys signed UDFA contracts, therefore, making them NFL players that the big mean CLK is trying to buck the system and turn LSU into a roster filled with NFL guys.

sidenote: 1 of the 2 LSU guys signed his UDFA contract while rehabbing a broken foot/ankle, never dressed, never practiced and was cut in a week....but somehow the guy that practiced with 2 teams is fine, this guy is NOT. make it make less sense than this.

None of that is the issue.

Sankey himself said under oath that the moment a player decides to leave college and go pro, they're a pro. It doesn't matter if they've signed a contract or been drafted or not.

Sankey said a lot of incorrect shite....the 2 LSU guys are the only 2 that signed UDFA contracts that have been told no. the others guys have not, and its why they're on rosters.

So this is where the goalpost is now?

Look, the point is, the SEC specifically wrote a rule to stop LSU and only LSU from rostering 2 players that should have gotten a 5th year in college.

You think they're not going to do the same thing in basketball?

Tulane’s QB was Jon English, son of the head coach.

I’m not arguing the validity of the SEC’s ruling, simply pointing out the inconsistency and hypocrisy of it all as it pertains to those 2. And yes the goalposts moved a lot in those 2-3 weeks. Comical is an understatement.

This will make for a nice settlement when the SEC and NCAA are sued.

I think that was Jon English son of the head coach Wally English.

Is there anything different about those two and the others who got TROs?
