Exactly how I feel. I don't get this for these particular guys.


It’s a watershed moment for sure. SEC and B1G making a bold move and brazenly breaking antitrust law.

Just because the court order rules they can play doesn’t mean the SEC schools have to take them. If the SEC has agreed 16-0 that they aren’t taking them, the kids are free to go play via the court order at Tulane or some Mountain West school. Just won’t be in the SEC.


Well if they were told they couldn't be eligible for 5 or 5 then I sympathize more for them here. I still think an exception should have been made for these guys. Many would have transferred or stayed at bigger schools IMO.

Completely understanding of the ban moving forward after them.

SEC looks like the kid that got mad and left game but not before taking his ball. You annouce 5 for 5. So players agree to play for team A .SEC dont like how thier own law is working out so they come up with new law. To me to late these kids did everything by the book to gain a year. Maybe next time you make new bill read it through before you pass it.

SEC may be in contempt themselves by their own actions under Code of Civil Procedure Art. 224 section 10:

(10) Any other act or omission punishable by law as a contempt of court, or intended to obstruct or interfere with the orderly administration of justice, or to impair the dignity of the court or respect for its authority, and which is not a direct contempt.

That’s not how this works. The player is harmed financially in this scenario. He’s not going to make LSU money at Tulane. But for the collusion of the SEC, he would play for LSU and get paid handsomely.
