SEC Sues LSU Over Pro Athlete Recruiting | Dayton News

The SEC is suing LSU over a bold move to recruit pro athletes back into college football — a legal showdown that’s turned the conference’s own rules into a courtroom battleground. Commissioner Greg Sankey took the stand defending the league’s authority, while LSU coach Lane Kiffin pushes forward with plans to bring in former pros who claim they had no choice but to go pro due to limited options. The athletes argue the rules changed after their decisions, leaving them caught between loyalty and legality.
