SEC (It just means more.. even its losses are wins)

here’s the funniest part about all of this crap.

not a single human being that participated in any NFL activities is even listed on LSU’s official roster right now.
not one.

but if you listen to the media and this Georgia AG, you’d swear that we’re gonna roll out an entire team of NFL pro-bowlers.

Texas however has a starting O-Lineman that took part in NFL mini camps.
yet nobody is really saying anything about that.



LSU did evaluate a few guys, some practiced, “committed” to LSU, etc.

so if all this plays out and they are deemed eligible, LSU can (and i’m assuming will) add them.
but as of this morning at least, none of them have been added yet.
Right.....but the reason is because of the pushback. It's not like LSU is being super cautious here. They would roll out an entire team of NFL pro bowlers if they could.

2026 Countdown Thread (complete)

This is from 11W today. These darn kids have no understanding of history. Go watch some Troy Smith tape. That was not a run and punt offense.

If Tressel had Smith on one of his Ohio State rosters, would he have changed his offense to feed him the football?

Perhaps it’s revisionist history, but all I can remember of Tressel’s offenses is a Power-run scheme and punts. Lots and lots of punts. Smith would have been head and shoulders above Tressel’s Ohio State pass catchers,

I'd be a lot more worried about a freshman starting in the slot, but with who he's had to defend and still performed well enough to start, I think he'll be ok. Generally, you'd think the size and speed of college players would be a lot to overcome when things are live, but I think our guys have worked on him and they all talk about trying to make each other better.

Steve Sarkisian - (Cutty Sark after Dark, Texas HC)

Didn’t read the full article but hows this grandstanding? He’s not wrong.

It’s not right to push kids aside who have worked all year for this season.
Because he doesn't actually care about the kids or believe in what he's saying. He cares about his record......and his record gets better if he can prevent LSU from getting good players.

Steve Sarkisian - (Cutty Sark after Dark, Texas HC)

Steve Sarkisian’s hypocritical diatribe on LSU’s NFL roster controversy perfectly sums up college football’s grandstanding problem​

Glass houses and such from the Texas’ head coach on the SEC’s biggest controversy.

2026-07-23T192012Z_14237005_MT1USATODAY29438341_RTRMADP_3_NCAA-FOOTBALL-SEC-FOOTBALL-KICKOFF-MEDIA-DAYS-1280x853.jpg


Steve Sarkisian could not have picked a worse time to climb on his soapbox. The Texas head coach delivered a passionate condemnation of LSU’s effort to bring back players who participated on NFL preseason rosters, and the hypocrisy couldn’t be more evident. LSU’s decision has created a massive controversy and mounting tension across college football, to the point where the SEC is threatening to expel the program. Everyone has chimed in on this matter, and Sarkisian just had to add his voice to the choir.

Sarkisian went on what can only be described as a hypocritical diatribe, stating:

“These players on all of our rosters have been working for nine months for this moment on Saturday, which will then lead into the next five to six months. The fact that somebody is going to take somebody off of an NFL roster and tell somebody who has been doing it for nine months to kick rocks, that doesn’t sit well with me. That morally is wrong.”

A noble sentiment on the surface. The problem is that Sarkisian recently re-added former Texas offensive lineman Cole Huston to the Longhorns’ roster after Huston participated in not one but two NFL rookie minicamps. The only difference between the Texas and LSU situations is that Huston did not sign a contract with either NFL team.

I have no doubt he’ll be first round level when he comes out. That said part of me is a bit curious to how he’ll do this year vs teams like Texas etc with multiple WRs.

Is he starting at nickel because he’s elite or because he’s the best we have? I’m leaning heavily because he’s that good. But he’s still a true freshman so hopefully he doesn’t face too many bumps in the road.

I am not necessarily defending Sark, all of these coaches are hypocritical douche bags imo, BUT.....

College football players are pros now, they get paid to play. Another pro from another league comes in last minute and takes your spot because you weren't good enough to keep it or make some other dude the one who lost his job.

Such is life in the cutthroat adult world, such is life in the cutthroat pro sports world.

You got your NIL money, hope you did something smart with it because life comes at you fast.

It's sad because they are so young but the don't get to have it both ways. You are an adult wage earner or you are a college kid, you don't get to be both anymore.
