SEC Bans Pro-Returning Players | LSU Tigers Football News

The SEC just passed a hardline rule shutting out former pro players from returning to college football — and it’s hitting LSU right in the teeth. With a unanimous 16-0 vote, the conference now bars any player who declared for the NFL, signed a pro contract, or played on a pro roster from stepping back onto an SEC field. That means LSU’s hopes of bringing in Dae’Quan Wright and Zxavian Harris — both ex-Ole Miss stars with brief NFL stints — are likely dashed, despite court-issued injunctions allowing them to play. Coach Lane Kiffin argues this is simply seizing legal opportunities, but if the SEC’s new policy overrides those rulings, LSU’s plans for depth at tight end and defensive tackle may be scrapped for good.
