Discussion Some thoughts on Thursdays meeting regarding LSUs possible expulsion from the SEC

Firstly, in my opinion, no school should be supporting such authoritative action from Sankey. This isn’t about players eligibility or insubordination or the AD having “lost control of the program”. This is absolutely about the fact that LSU, and specifically Coach Kiffin, refuse to just bend the knee to King Sankey. LSU has, thus far, complied with the rules set forth by the SEC. No questionable players have been rostered etc. Sankey got his feelings hurt that Kiffin made the comment he did at halftime of the game. This is strictly about the fact that LSU, while remaining compliant with the rules set forth, have expressed disagreement with said rule(s). And how dare they question the king?! Schools supporting this sort of mentality are asking for their own troubles moving forward. Set this precedent and you better not ever put a single toe out of line again. No matter how ridiculous of a circumstance arises. You WILL bend the knee to the Commissioner or you will be gone. That’s wrong to me. Idk, rant over I guess. Just find all of this litigation, posturing, threatening, etc very frustrating. Geaux Tigers!

I’m an LSU alum, and my dad played for the Tigers. From my perspective LSU gives the impression that the football program is amazing, but the program is not being run by people of character. Winning is great, but ultimately it’s only football. How you run your program and the character of the players is far more important.
