LSU Roster Standoff Before Season Opener | LSU Tigers Football News

LSU’s Lane Kiffin is in a legal and athletic tightrope walk as he delays adding three key players—Dae’Quan Wright, Zxavian Harris, and Junior Tuihalamaka—to the official roster until after a crucial Thursday court hearing. The players, recently waived by NFL teams and previously under Kiffin’s tutelage at Ole Miss, are granted eligibility via Louisiana court orders—but the SEC’s rules bar anyone signed to a pro contract from being rostered. With the final roster due Friday before their season opener, Kiffin is navigating a high-stakes legal battle between state courts and conference regulations, all while ensuring compliance with SEC rules. The outcome could impact not just LSU’s roster but potentially penalize any school that used these athletes if the SEC prevails.
