He is the new three-year Letterman 😂

It also looks like LSU is trying to quickly add a fourth NFL player. Harris, Wright, Pyburn (Tampa) and Cotton (Broncos).

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.

I assume this will look like Sidley’s lawsuit for the big 12.

That is a TRO. The SEC didn’t have a chance to make an appearance. If it survives Thursday’s hearing, then the conference will likely win at trial or in Federal court. But if the SEC presidents vote to kick out LSU, nothing in that order prevents them from doing so.

That is conceivable, but unlikely. As someone who’s followed Texas football closely and trying to contribute to the discussion in a thoughtful way, I’d like to offer a few clarifying points: 1. The original assessment was based on the publicly reported MRI findings (bone bruise from hyperextension, no structural ligament or meniscus damage), which genuinely does represent one of the better possible outcomes after a non-contact knee injury to a starting left tackle. 2. Framing it as shifting from a “potentially season-altering injury” to a “temporary offensive-line management problem” is simply an accurate reflection of the difference between an ACL and a bone bruise in terms of timeline and long-term impact. 3. While the phrasing may have come across as a bit polished or structured, that doesn’t automatically mean it was AI-generated. Plenty of fans try to write clearly when discussing injury news that matters this much. Ultimately, the important thing is that Goosby avoided the worst-case scenario, and the Longhorns now have a more manageable (if still imperfect) situation to work through. Happy to discuss the potential snap counts or depth chart implications if that’s more productive than debating writing style. Just trying to keep the conversation constructive.

I tried this once with a series of Joe Z posts. I literally had to unplug my computer. It was threatening to call child protective services.

I gave grok expert some of the information from this thread. It got non-contact on its own. It agreed that you could walk off the field even with an ACL injury before swelling sets in and adrenaline is high.

Is this a Hank problem or a Trevor problem? Back in the day when we had to dial up Jerry Scarborough at $10 a minute to get information nobody got injured. Nobody that I knew of.

He’s quoting the prediction, daddy. Not quoting the player. My goodness.

It isn’t a quote from LWC. It’s an opinion. LWC misread the situation. Newberg should have phrased that better.

I am more confident that he will commit than I am that Royal will stick.

The Kansas AG put it nicely. If the Texas State Attorney General takes any action beyond its poorly reasoned letter, we stand ready to assist …

I’m talking about the legal analysis in the letters. We know it’s a political letter and we know why Paxton wrote it. But he didn’t have to write gibberish.
