That’s a good point, also raises the question why this rule wasn’t mentioned to the recruits when they transferred to an SEC school. They knew it, been there for a long time. Pruitt brought it up about Gibbs saying they knew you had to sit out in the SEC. Makes me think players believed the lawyers telling them they could get it approved. Never trust a lawyer.In such an unprecedented year, where there is going to be the proverbial asterisk next to everything, there is little merit in enforcing this arbitrary SEC rule.
How come nobody was mentioning this issue when we were trying to get the appeal? Nobody was talking about that rule.
Yeah like why didn't Pruitt bring that rule up before?? Kinda an important detail.That’s a good point, also raises the question why this rule wasn’t mentioned to the recruits when they transferred to an SEC school.

And KentuckyWe could easily lose 6 or 7 games with or without Mays. Once you factor in guys getting quarantined and injuries due to less preparation and conditioning (just like the NFL is seeing right now). Anything could happen this year.
Bama, Auburn, UF, UGA, TaMu, USCjr. There's 6 teams we could easily lose every one even completely healthy.
Unwise decisions lead to adverse events in the future. Best to leave this one alone unless you are prepared to withstand the consequences of you bad decisions. Rules are made for reasons. If those rules turn out to be a problem to the group to which they apply, then those rules should be changed. It appears that the SEC is open to determining if the SEC members want it to happen. We are putting our program back together and I would hate to do something rash to derail our return to an SEC power.Exactly, let a judge decide if the commissioner won’t.
Goes both ways. Those guys can lose their starters tooWe could easily lose 6 or 7 games with or without Mays. Once you factor in guys getting quarantined and injuries due to less preparation and conditioning (just like the NFL is seeing right now). Anything could happen this year.

The SEC doesn’t pass laws. If a judge grants an injunction for Mayes to play, it trumps an SEC regulation. I personally think both the NCAA and the SEC are corrupt and issues are handled differently for different schools.If the rule is that cut and dry, I'm not sure what a judge would do about it. Judges interpret the law, not write it.
Or easily win them for the same reasonsWe could easily lose 6 or 7 games with or without Mays. Once you factor in guys getting quarantined and injuries due to less preparation and conditioning (just like the NFL is seeing right now). Anything could happen this year.

Nope, they have not. Grad transfers, yes, not normal transfers. That’s why they installed the Grad Transfer Rule. I bet they change this one as well, call it the Mays Rule.
But Sankey basically just went public saying any SEC transfers will be denied unless they vote a new rule in. Any chance that happens before Scar?
Pruitt's record wont matter in a pandemic year when half the players probably will be quarantined at some point and not play and he has to play a 10 game SEC schedule. He could win 1 game and get a pass, I am confident.
