This was the plan all along 

Get kicked out the SEC to join the MAC or CUSA

 

Win all the games by a million

Make the playoffs every year. 

 

One would assume the SEC expected this to play out this way. So we will see if they have been playing chess , while LSU plays checkers. And when can they start penalizing LSU is my next question. Seems the Judge says they can't, but who knows.

If they have to wait on the Bama ruling , or go full speed ahead. No way the SEC can back down now, it's on!

Key word is “rational”

Appeals always go to a court outside your buddy’s jurisdiction.

Strengthens it. The SEC can now point to actual harm.

Should only help it. It's just basically a game of chicken if Lane will actually roster them. They could eventually face serious punishment if they go through with this.

He'd be singing a different tune if these players were trying to go to anywhere else in the SEC

This is getting ridiculous. Nothing in our Constitution says judges can make laws and regulations through TROs. Congress has to take over and give the conferences or an organization like the NCAA an antitrust exemption so they can set hard rules that are legally protected from these independent and activist judges.

LSU to the Big12? 🤦‍♂️

it is beyond me why you would do this for players that are not even that essential.

Lane Kiffin is a straight up dbag and terrible for the sport. Literally terrible, selfish and incredibly destructive 

 

 

There’s no other reason LSU is doing all this other than they dont think their team is good enough. 8-4 and SEC punishment will hit like crack

Can’t stand either of the Acho brothers at this point. Sam’s views on this matter is completely misguided. 

The federal court can enter an anti1suit injunction against the Louisiana state court which is what I predict will happen tomorrow.

I have not looked at the docket in the federal case but i bet there is a motion being filed as we speak to enjoin the state court.

Let’s hope that happens Monday, after lsu adds these players to their roster.

For those wondering who is really pulling the strings in this little drama, see above.

That a moron like this can get elected to the highest position in a state government tells you everything you need to know about Louisiana.

 

How are these players not having to sit out for a semester for transferring to another SEC school? Did the judge throw that rule outs? Seems to me their only option would be to play at Ole Miss.

What he says is not technically correct.  I will post the latest. The SEC needs to get the court in the Northern District of Alabama to issue an anti-suit injunction which will shut the Baton Rouge judge down.  Will be a real circus.  

This order is written in a way to take any discretion from LSU. They can’t take any action that would prevent the players from competing. I think the thought is that if this ruling is later overturned LSU would stop using the players and claim that they had no choice but to play them previously. To do otherwise would violate the court’s ruling. This is different than Texas Tech. Sorsby had an injunction allowing him to play, but it was still Texas Tech’s choice to put him in a game. So the SEC is going to have to either move quickly on the federal case and try to get an injunction that would overrule this decision or try to get it stayed by a Louisiana appellate court pending appeal.
