Freddy the German soccer fan stumbled upon the Branch Davidians in Waco. They told their side of the story, and look at who's implicated on one of their posters :lol:

Despite the SEC's longstanding rules prohibiting professional athletes from returning to college athletics, LSU saw this as an opportunity to be exploited in a deliberate and coordinated campaign working with the plaintiffs in court cases to use the court system to prevent the SEC from enforcing those rules.

The complete lack of institutional control over LSU’s athletic programs, their ongoing defiance of the Conference’s Professionalism Rules, and the very real threat... that LSU will interfere with any effort to terminate LSU’s membership in the Conference.

So, no rules at all. Got it. A bunch of clickbait buzzword nonsense.

Also notice you didn't answer the question regarding punishment for schools who actually did play, or are playing, ineligible players. Thanks.

LSU still has to bend the knee on the incoming punishments that are coming.

For breaking what rule again?

That's what I thought.

Meanwhile, dozens of schools (including SEC members) are playing with, or have played, ineligible players only because a judge told them they could. Just curious, do they get punished too?

a rogue program

If anything, the losses to OM and UK prove we aren't doing anything unusual. If you really think someone is cheating in the SEC, wouldn't you look at the undefeated or 1-loss teams first?

The players vs. the NCAA/SEC
He thinks LSU could have told Tony Clayton etc to drop the case or at the very least not called Sankey to testify.

He was humiliated. That's what this is about.

Great, so Wade bent the knee on Luis, and Kiffin bent the knee on Harris and Wright. So we should all be moving on, right?

Welp, guess not

:dunno:

Middle aged

I’m not sure what the conference commissioners did in the 80s but I imagine it involved a lot of golf

SEC Commissioner role

Back when we were kids, nobody knew the SEC commissioner’s name. It would be a gentle older guy you’d see at a random
bowl game every couple years wearing an SEC logo blazer.

Fast forward to today, and Sankey is out there acting like a power hungry politician. Why does this guy think he’s so important?

Last I checked, the Big 10 has won the last 3 football championships so maybe it’s time for a new approach. Whatever he thinks he’s doing is not effective. Maybe it’s time to find someone who is there to serve the schools rather than impose his will on them.

I dont see him staying in the same state if he bolts. When things get tough he runs away. He doesnt stay around long enough to endure the pressure of bad press.

The Tennessee to USC move falls under this category, but with LSU being permanent opponents of Ole Miss, he kind of did the opposite this time around. The UCLA, Penn St., and Michigan jobs were open so he had plenty of opportunity to get far away from the SEC if he wanted.

The fog was legit in BR this morning. I actually got a Waze "heavy fog" hazard notification on my way to work. That was a first
Get used to it.. think of the SEC as the NFL now. Most games will come down to the last possession, talent is more equal, road games are hard, etc.

The days of trotting our loaded 2-deep up to Starkville and winning 45-0 are long gone..

Also Randle's reaction to winning the lottery
I feel like SEC expansion has hurt Auburn some. Like they get lost in the shuffle now, and Texas has become the true challenger to Bama and UGA that Auburn used to be?

Any Auburn fans think there's any truth to this?
I've been watching him from afar.

Baylor is a hard place to win historically, despite plenty of HS talent in TX. It's a private school and doesn't have what UT, A&M, OU, or even TTU has in terms of financial backing.

That said, I've been surprised at how poorly his defenses have done lately (57th, 113th, 87th, 88th nationally from 2022-2025). Assuming even average talent, you'd think Dave would scheme his way to top 50 or so defenses just about every year.

They're improved this year (26th). He gave up defensive playcalling and they spent heavier in the portal. The transfers from KSU and the DC also from KSU are legit.

Lagway can make some insane throws but he will lose them some games he shouldn't because he's so inconsistent. He has some impressive WRs to throw to, so that helps.
You hardly ever see a CFB coach smiling that big with a headset on, but that's because so few of them are as prepared as Coach Chris.

I thought the exact same thing. I had actually just come over from Rax on Sherwood and was surprised at how dead it was.

Yeah, I don't blame you at all - everyone knew the rules going in. I don't think ESPN can do a true 1400 IP hard cap, so the final day (in theory) is unlimited innings. The problem it can create is where you have multiple teams at 1399 going into Sunday, and then everyone splurges on 30 innings and the whole season comes down to a bunch of bottom-end SP's.. Half of which are already mentally in Cancun and the other half getting pulled early to get ready for MLB playoffs.

It's just such a fickle day on the MLB calendar and it has way too much sway on the final standings imo..
