It would be funny if we went 13-0 with these players and resembled 2019 LSU and the CFB Committee said FU we’re not putting you in the Playoff

Sankey just wants something. He’s a politician, it’s a shakedown, pay the extortion/bribe and let’s move on.

This is such a shite show of a distraction right before the season. I get taking the guys just in case they got to play. Better to have them than someone else have them but at this point they need to just let it die and get ready for Clemson.

Rousse has already signed off on it. These kids aren’t playing.

The TRO is not effective on a player that is inelligible for a reason outside the scope of their court's purview - the 5 for 5 rule. If a player is academically ineligible- same thing. The scope of the court can't override every other eligibility issue.

I guess we'll find out in a couple days. Next court date is Monday 8/31

Its not worth it over 2-3 players that aren't stars
This is why there are procedural rules in litigation. You can't issue relief that impacts the rights of a third party without having that third party involved in the litigation.
If the Plaintiffs' lawyers wanted to bind conferences to the injunctive relief, they would have had to add those conferences as parties to the underlying litigation.
Art. 641. Joinder of parties needed for just adjudication
A person shall be joined as a party in the action when either:
(1) In his absence complete relief cannot be accorded among those already parties.
(2) He claims an interest relating to the subject matter of the action and is so situated that the adjudication of the action in his absence may either:
(a) As a practical matter, impair or impede his ability to protect that interest.
(b) Leave any of the persons already parties subject to a substantial risk of incurring multiple or inconsistent obligations.

No it wasn't.
1. That matter was dropped before it advanced very far. We don't know how it would have proceeded.
2. That was involving a longstanding eligibility rule with precedent as to how it was enforced and tied to criminal activity. This is a new eligibility rule that the NCAA admitted it applied unequally.

You have not read the TRO. I suggest you find a copy and read it before you continue spreading disinformation. The TRO absolutely lifts all restrictions on the movement of these 22 players. And it specifically says no restrictions can be added by the NCAA or any of its affiliates. The SEC is an affiliate conference of the NCAA and the TRO relief specifically talks to that relationship. This is the relief to make these plaintiffs whole. Limiting their movement does not make them whole. Anyone attempting to block these players can be held in contempt of court and be liable for civil damages action.

Lost me with all the legalese. Where's SFP when you need him.
Question you have to ask yourself, is the SEC acting "in concert or participation with" the NCAA? I'd say hell yeah they are. They are a party to the TRO as well.
Heitner is ab to cook these clowns (AGAIN)

If this groupd did that, would you, as a fan, feel as special about them, as you did about the 2019 team?
Would Levitt be held to the high praise of Joe? The answer is no.
You wanna tarnish an image, start a fight with the SEC, the NCAA, and have the NFL displeased and pulling strings in the background
We were fine, but low character drove Kiff to jump the shark

If you are representing the SEC in the injunction hearing coming up on August 31, I hope you lead with this line. In the same courtroom and to the same judge that issued it

Sorry, but you just misunderstand due process and the rights of necessary parties. You cannot bind a third party to anything without affording that third party the opportunity to show up in court and make its case. Everything you are saying is just fun wishcasting that has no impact on the SEC.

The players are going to argue yes
It does not matter. They can issue all of the injunctions they want in favor of the players
these schools aren't going to touch them in defiance of the conference

The SEC is just going to tie this up in court long enough to make it a moot point.

We will come back to this in a few months and see who was correct. These players will either get to play or they will sue the NCAA for damages. The NCAA has already admitted to unequal treatment of these players eligibility in this case.
And for those that say this is not over.... You are correct. I think the next challenge will come from a group of players that want to play beyond 5 years. They will continue to enroll in college classes and sue to be able to play football and make a living from their NIL. These players will have no interest in playing in the NFL.

The issue is the inconsistency between the SEC's and the Big Ten's policies. They are only targeting specific leagues and sports, not banning others.
That alone is going to hit them, and potentially hard.
You cannot selectively limit "at the college level" specific sports different from others.
This is going to be a major mess now, especially with the decision to allow professionals from Europe to come play but not those from the US.
Any player who played in a professional league needs to be banned, no matter where. If you were paid to play a sport, or paid in relation to playing a sport, then you absolutely are no longer an amateur. Thus, everything should make you ineligible, including NIL and revenue share.
Reality is, college sports are already dead, and they need to simply break off a new minor league for the NFL and a legit one for the NBA. Let college sports go back to no scholarships, with students doing it for the love of the sport.
Lease out the stadiums and arenas to these "pro" teams and make money without spending much.
This whole thing is a joke now, but trying to act like this is some hill to die on because a kid was in training camp and got shafted by not knowing he/she would have eligibility left is a complete and utter joke.
