Thinking they (SEC) wants LSU to help with getting the two players in question to drop their lawsuit.

You help us and we go away for now.

I think the fact that LSU did not roster Wright and Harris has everything to do with Axon's decision here as there is no longer a dispute over "illegal players" under the SEC's hastily contrived new rule. A trial may be inevitable unless one side or the other gives in. From the LSU side, that may involved serious penalties like suspending Kiffin and/or big fines. Heck, they may even want to prohibit LSU from post-season play. And for what?

The SEC shifted their cause of action away from the players in question when the court enjoined LSU to the plaintiffs in that case, meaning any punishment tied to playing the players would have been grounds for a suit itself.

Is not the SEC still holding its kangaroo vote on expulsion tomorrow? That to me is a big effing deal. The players and LSU had a cause of detrimental reliance regarding the two players in question. In general, courts view ex post facto rules such as the August 26 one as selective enforcement, a bill of attainder if you will. They cared nothing when the former NBA player joined Gump basketball.

They would have to show cause for sanctioning LSU. LSU did not do anything to warrant penalties from the SEC.

Exactly. The entire suit is bad faith.

I think tomorrow will be the SEC begging LSU to accept some sort of penalty as a way to save a little face.

Hopefully we tell them to suck our Tiger dicks.

Players case still has legs. That’s where this whole thing can get hairy for the SEC still.


Yea and somehow it will be our fault. "Kiffin and the admin encouraged the players to pursue a lawsuit against us". No your bitch arse is Sankey and that's why you're being sued.

This League hearing tomorrow is completely separate from the Federal suit. And the lead anti - LSU attacks are coming from the Tenn. administration, the president being their mouth piece. And it's evident that she knows zip about the LSU brand / importance to the League.

The SEC cannot reverse course now which would be the wise thing to do. I think the threat of the vote is actionable let alone actually voting tomorrow. LSU may be planning a suit for defamation over this entire ludicrous affair.

I really believe this “postponement” was the judges way of letting Sankey and the SEC get out of this situation without being embarrassed again…

Doubt they did. But I’d they did so what. Encouraging someone to take a dispute to court is hardly incriminating if anything. It’s not like they told the players to find Sankey and physically threaten him.

Clearly. In a couple of weeks the SEC will quietly drop the suit altogether and then try to act like it never happened.

It’s resolved, lol. Continued with no date scheduled. This is sort of like looking at a bunch of shite in your garage and saying, “I’ll get around to it.”

I think the SEC is going to pay for their actions. LSU doesn’t have to do anything at this point.

I'm not a lawyer and I didn't stay in a Holiday Inn last night but I think that the postponement is to keep Liz from filling in the Louisiana Federal court district. The SEC needs their Kangaroo court to block for them.
