The GEAUXTEAM POD has what I believe is the real reason for all this . Please read.

Per the GeauxTeam on X:

Ross is telling you the root cause issue here if you read between the lines.

A) The SEC is basically acknowledging that the Protect College Sports Act has little to no chance of passing.

Therefore,

B) The SEC is trying to insert control in a potential self governance model moving forward because the NCAA is powerless unless it gets protection from the PCSA.

But really,

C) This is the last ditch effort to protect the cash cow. The only way the SEC can continue to enrich themselves is by refusing to acknowledge the players as professionals which avoids collective bargaining.

Lastly,

D) Lane Kiffin and LSU are throwing a wrench into the already broken machine because he doesn’t care about the unjust enrichment the NCAA, SEC, and schools are profiting. Lane only cares about winning football games and because of that the SEC knows he is on the verge of toppling the already vulnerable system.

That is real reason the SEC is throwing everything at LSU hoping something will stick. The whole business is about to collapse and they know it.
