Kiffin didn’t immediately back down
He has bosses. It's a group decision including those above Kiffin.

I'd laugh if Mike Johnson and Steve Scalise made a few calls to peers in SEC states to discuss funding issues and committee assignments if they don't get control of their university admins real quick.
We're one of 10 remaining, founding members of the SEC and we ain't leaving.
I have a hard time seeing Georgia (LSU grad AD) or any of the new members other than Aggie (out of spite/raw male cheerleader emotion) supporting an effort to kick us out of the Conference we founded. Also have a hard time seeing Saban not weighing in via backchannels with Bama officials.
Ole Miss and Tennessee are understandably sad. Whoever is advising the SEC needs to stop talking and so does Sankey.

Sankey needs the Tebow treatment. Someone has to have his cell number.

So please dumb this down for me. Do we truly believe this will happen? Isn’t there a reputable national media guy saying this won’t happen?

What are the chances we could get it on record on our counter suit how often Sankey watches his wife get railed by other men?

Someone tell me why we should stay in a conference actively looking to screw us over?

how will Ross earn his living now

Their accusation is that LSU actively recruited Pro players to challenge the system and return to college, not that we actually rostered them. They claim that kind of activity is explicitly against SEC bylaws.
And when lane puts Wright on the stand... and they establish that these were lanes former players etc etx... that narrative immediately collapses

Sankey is flirting with having the sec have to pay us, the sec losing its current media deal and having to get an even worse one because you can’t replace LSU with a similar school.

Actually, LSU would owe the SEC up to $45,000,000 if this happens. Not the other way around.

I cant wait for this dumb bitch Sankey to hand Kiffin the SECCG trophy this year. frick that clown.
For you old-timers like me, this is akin to Al Davis and Pete Rozelle.
Bonus Trivia: Who hired Kiffin to his first head coaching job?

That is complete insanity
The Federal Court is likely to find the SEC has every right to hold a vote, but given the BR injunction, it has no right to enforce it.
Further, it is a wide open invitation for a Contempt citation from Jorden's court. And although exceedingly unlikely given Jorden's measured actions to this point, he could put Sankey's arse behind bars as ringleader of the actions targeting LSU.

I don’t think the judge is going to take kindly to the conference trying to circumvent his ruling.

Just curious. Why was MLB excluded from the SECs ban on "Pro" athletes?
Anyone know?

quote:That would be a coup for the ages, but LSU and the Big10 are major mismatches.
we get with the Big 10
The Big10 wants AAU schools. Nebraska was AAU when it joined. It subsequently lost that status, and stands as the only non-AAU school in the Big10. LSU has never met that standard.
Obviously it's not a geographic fit either.
The Big10 goaded Stankey into this action. Doubtful they'd reverse course and bring LSU in.
The Big12 and ACC would be major financial downscales for LSU unless courts granted a gargantuan antitrust award to LSU against the SEC.

The SEC voting to expel LSU would constitute firing the gun. The players attorneys would be in court immediately asking for a contempt citation, which would assuredly be granted barring a Federal Court stay.
The question is what teeth Jorden would put into enforcing the citation. It's unlikely he'd jail Stankey, but I would dearly love seeing that result.
This whole thing is dystopian.
