SEC School Officials, Georgia AG Threaten LSU Over Playing NFL Players
Georgia’s attorney general has joined the LSU-SEC fray.
A Louisiana judge will decide on Thursday whether former NFL players can rejoin college football for LSU. School authorities and the Georgia Attorney General have threatened severe consequences if this occurs, including expulsion and the removal of the university from the Southeastern Conference. Attorney General Chris Carr has pledged to back the conference in such a decision, while LSU's head coach has confirmed that the players are joining the team.
The SEC and NCAA have banned players who have signed NFL contracts or appeared on NFL rosters, but this decision has sparked controversy. The university's legal team has challenged the SEC's decision, and a hearing will determine whether these players can continue their college football careers.
