This is a Power vs common sense.
Sankey needs to go. If he is allowed to strong arm this what's next?

The ruling was already in place for next season.

This statement is directly related to the exceptions that were made. It's why they are being sued.

Because they were trying to address this situation in particular.

That would have made the most sense. Just recognize the mistake this year and make it a rule effective 2027. I don't think anyone would have cared that much.

But I'm just a dumb person, so

So why did Sankey not leave it as was?

It was a good no call situation

Why didn't they rule that playing any ineligible player would have the same penalties?

Make OM have to not play Chambliss.

Lane Kiffin is starting to remind a lot of Trump. In the sense that anything and everything he does and says gets criticized no matter what it is.

Yoga man bad!

It's a good question. He put the SEC directly in the line of fire for these lawsuits when even the NCAA wasn't willing to fight them...all while already accepting other TROs that allowed ineligible players to play.

The rumors I've heard are that they are intentionally trying to force the hand of Congress. I don't really think that holds water, myself.

Maybe this is part of a longer term objective of the SEC and Big 10 to separate from the NCAA and this is just a single move on the chess board.

But, it fails logical tests in a vacuum.

This is what happened. The sec’s first statement on this mentioned the bill in congress.

Now, if we assume the ncaa and conferences aren’t acting nefariously, they should have issued a blanket waiver for these players and called it a day.
