Team Vote

This could potentially be more fun than 2019 because of the open hostility from the rest of the country. But I’m not gonna get ahead of myself there

Reasons the SEC won’t suspend Lane:

1. LSU didn’t break any rules
2. They know LSU didn’t break any rules
3. They know we know they know LSU didn’t break any rules.
4. They know the PCSA has zero chance of passing if they piss off Rep Johnson, Rep Scalise, or Sen Kennedy
5. They know the subsequent lawsuits for any “punishment” administered to LSU will be apocalyptic.
6. They know the people running LSU have the fortitude to follow through with such lawsuits.

It’s Moot. They should drop the federal suit and work with LSU to adopt better rules. They have no standing whatsoever to admonish LSU alone. Of the 5+ schools playing players that are eligible because of TROs, LSU is not among them. They don’t have to like us. But they are risking a hell of a lot if they think they can give us a paddlin because they don’t like our coach, our AD, our President, or our Governor.

ETA - the governor they all can’t stand seems to be pretty good friends with Kash Patel and the Trump administration in general. Take the off ramp Sankey. Don’t bother trying to shame us through lackeys via anonymous sources. It won’t work.

Nvm carry on govna

If passing PCSA is part of the artillery then where do you think Saban stands on the attacks against LSU? Have we heard any statements from him?

---

Saban is wisely staying out of this but it’s pretty evident from the way he and Lane were talking on TV Saturday that he’s not all that bothered by what LSU is doing.

I'm guessing some kind of ridiculously high fine for the SEC to save face.

Fining LSU for not breaking a rule that others in the conference have is not an advisable path for the SEC. The whole point of this exercise is LSU refusing to be singled out for wrongdoing. They are going to have to be fair to LSU, or the others will go down with us. Cooperation is a two-way street. LSU does have enough ammunition to make this very long and very painful for the whole league.

Boils down to we’re LSU and your school frickin ain’t. Just Different.

The only thing I've seen that could possibly be in question is that LSU encouraged those players to seek eligibility and It's not for me to see if that's legal or not.

I’m sure LSU encouraged or assisted the suit to the extent that every school encourages or assists eligibility lawsuits. This is what I was getting at with my singled out comments. If they want to go after us for that, then we need to put up a fight and let the lawyers find out how commonplace this is amongst our esteemed, ethical conference mates. I really don’t think anyone will want to open any of these cans of worms. Let it die and work the underlying “trust issues” out in a smoke filled room together like generations of SEC admins did before this, not by dropping chickenshit “we can’t work with these guys” comments to their media lackeys and hope we cave. Scott Woodward ain’t walking through that door.

LSU should not accept any punishment whatsoever unless others are punished for their infractions too. We will cooperate with the league. We will not be singled out. If the conditions of being back in their gay little clique are to be a submissive little bitch, then that’s what we’d be for a long time. This is where the line is drawn. Best for all parties to let this go away before further damage is done.

@ Ole Miss is going to be a shite show. We are going to have to win by double digits. The refs will be on their side all night

Ole Miss fans are going to thug out and show their asses. If we win it’s a total PR victory for LSU. I hope we bury them and we get to see lots of tears in the bleachers after they are done throwing shite.

I will miss some of you
