That's your job. Give them a legal reason not to.

I am no attorney, and I haven't read everything--just snippets... But I'm not seeing a legal appeal or argument. I'm basically seeing a dog roll over and expose its belly to ask for mercy.

Their best argument is “Why now? We’ve had the NIL rules in place for a while now.” But it’s so disingenuous for them to act like:

A. they’re unaware that basically no one has been complying with their ridiculous guidelines; and

B. this hasn’t suddenly become urgent because of their own attempts to step up enforcement.

When DK is on: we're not losing

When DK is off and the vets flip the switch: we're not losing


When every single person is off (see USCjr): we may lose


Just avoid total disaster 6 straight games in March and this team has what it takes to go all the way.

DK scored 32 against USCjr. Not sure I'd describe him as off that game.

Our final 4 game stretch is brutal.

Absolutely have to take advantage of the next 3 weeks and move up the SEC standings. Need to take these next 6 seriously and sweep the leg.

During the same stretch, Alabama, currently on top of the SEC, will have to go to Auburn, UK, and Ole Miss.

Time to create some seperation.

Pete Rose is officially banned from MLB Hall of Fame voting...............



NEW YORK —
Pete Rose, kicked out of baseball because of his gambling, today was banned from the Hall of Fame when a rule was adopted to exclude players on the permanently ineligible list.

Rose, the all-time hits leader, is the only living person on the ineligible list.

The Hall’s board of directors voted 12 to 0 to accept the proposal, which was presented last month by a special committee.

“The directors felt that it would be incongruous to have a person who has been declared ineligible by baseball to be eligible for baseball’s highest honor,” Hall of Fame President Ed Stack said. “It follows that if such individual is reinstated by baseball, then such individual would be a candidate for election.”

Even though Rose gambled on MLB he should still be in HOF.
It's not like he was juicing..

At A&M is the potential stumbling block during that stretch. If you get that one, I would say 6-0 is way more likely than not.

Getting by A&M on the road is the key, win that game and 6-0 is within reach.

The Alabama game is hardest of the last 4 of season, think Tennessee gets redemption at South Carolina..

NCAA always been corrupt. That’s not a conspiracy. Corrupt in terms of they do not have student athletes best interest at heart. But by that same token, neither do the member institutions including UT. Otherwise they would’ve figured out how to pay players and gone to bat for them many many years ago.

It is not however intentionally trying to hold just UT down and prop up its opponents, which is the conspiracy. They are / will be / would be (depending on court outcomes) investigating many other schools as well including FL.

Just like the refs aren’t conspiring against UT.

And beyond that...

Refs are run by the conferences, not Indianapolis...

I once heard a guy say that if he had a huge bad-*** in his face, and he knew he'd get mauled if it got to "fight" stage, he'd kiss the guy right on the mouth and back away. He said it usually shocked and grossed them out so bad they back off.

Odd thought, but I know he believed he was about to get mauled.

I mean...it's definitely a meta move. It's a way of hitting someone without hitting them lmao.

Talk about trying to get under someone's skin. Folks uncomfortable with their sexuality would lose it the rest of the game. Glad Awaka handled it with confidence and moved on. He's not fragile.
