@HurleyMediaG@Genetics56 But the CFP isn't the SEC. If its members collectively establish a uniform criterion for participation in their own championship, the legal question becomes whether LSU has a right to enter that private competition under different conditions than everyone else.
@AlloPackYT@SwerveInked@TreyWallace I don't think LSU would get expelled but I do think there would be other repercussions outside of this case. Like conduct detrimental to the league. Bad business partner. Lots of other avenues for them to go down. I think SEC ultimately wins.
@AlloPackYT@SwerveInked@TreyWallace Then you risk litigation in every state. I think the bigger issue is why can't every institution in the SEC find a favorable hometown judge and say this unfavorable rule in unenforceable.
@DavidWalkerQB I don't think it would be ban. It would be a uniform standard that all members wanting to participate in said playoff invitational must abide by. Wouldn't mention LSU or player eligibility rules. If you choose to ignore this requirement then you won't be considered.
@slmandel What happens if and when the CFP says that teams that play nfl players are disqualified from playoffs? Don't they have an easier path to federal courts which is where the sports lawyers don't want it.
