Is Keith doing anything to stop Lane?

I get saying anything to Sankey would be about as useful as talking to a fence post but can anything be done to stop what is clearly happening? Can signed contracts be enforced by a court of law which I believe is what Washington did with Demond Williams? This insanity has to stop. And yes the NCAA “should” fix it but they haven’t and they won’t. What can Ole Miss do to protect itself? @SpiritBen @spiritchuck @Zach Berry @72Truthfinder @JakeThompson

Bump because I’d like to know if our administration is doing anything to fight this other than renegotiating contracts. I’d like to think they’re doing something…

Yes, Keith is doing things behind closed doors right now to try and help protect Ole Miss against Lane’s actions. I keep seeing posters getting confused on what happened with the Washington QB. Washington didn’t do anything differently than what Ole Miss or any school in D1 football would do. The revenue sharing part of a player’s contract is enforceable and must be paid back if said player leaves. LSU couldn’t afford to pay back Washington’s QB’s 3 plus million dollars in revenue sharing and then pay Demond the plus million as well. Devin Harper's revenue sharing is no where in the ball park of three million in revenue sharing at Ole Miss. TJ Dottery had not signed his contract yet with OM, and Princewell’s contract is no where near three million in revenue sharing. if Harper and Princewell go to LSU, they will 💯 have to pay OM for the revenue sharing part of the contract. NIL deals aren’t enforceable. This is no different than what Washington did to LSU with Demond but the penalty for LSU is no where in the neighborhood to pay for the OM players as it was for Demond.

We might as well go back to putting cash in burger king bags or telling somebody’s daddy to go play a certain slot machine…. This amateur professional college football is an absolute cluster…

You really didnt answer his question. He asked what is Keith Carter doing about this practice by LSU in conference. Has he been on the phone with the other 14 ADs about what is happening. Is he on the phone 24/7 with the SEC office? Has he requested an in person meeting with SEC officials? I know he reads this board and has posters push back on posts like this. But he needs to take his hands out of his pockets and get angry over this.

I mean there isn’t Much any AD can do about a player wanting to transfer. I get it, it sucks on the possibility of losing Princewell, but that’s the nature of the portal. We have been on the other side of it a lot and now that one or two go south, you want to AD to step in? Do you want other AD’s to step in when we tamper and poach a player ?

This post is so stupid it deserves no answer. Ole Miss has never gone in conference after a player under contract that I know about. I do know Sankey and the SEC got involved when Laremy Tunsil in 2013 signed with Ole Miss and several Georgia boosters lost money and a good player. Five years later and a NCAA conviction it was over.

Yes. If it means they apply the same rules across the board I’d be fine with us getting in trouble for tampering with a player that has already signed for the following year

I somewhat get it but for this to be happening to rivals and same conference affiliates and a head coach at the center of it all, feels like someone needs to step in and do something. This is different than Penn state transfers going to Va Tech or the many other examples of players following coaches, it’s much different circumstances.

We don’t know what Keith is or is not doing, but I’ve been told that Keith is being active. No details were given, nor should they and nor should they be shared on a message board.

Are you that naive as to think, Keith or Boyce are telling anyone outside the leadership what they are doing? In no world would that information be pushed out to tip the hand. Read what you posted. How do you know he's not angry or had calls? Would you give away your military strategy or broadcast it on a message board, if you were going to war?

Yes, well...I've long quit believing anything anyone tells me unless I see some actual proof of an action occurring. Sorry, but our US government and Congress over these many years has made me this way.

Our "military" ( this is asinine) strategy should include imo letting everyone know what LSU is doing. I would also let the other ADs in this conference know that if LSU is doing it to us they can do it to you too. How that tips others off as to what WE are doing is ludicrous.

Need some clarity on the revenue sharing contracts. You say the revenue share "must be paid back". What if those amounts had not been paid to the players when they breached their contracts, which were only a week old? Are saying that the entire rev share amount is liquidated damages stated in the contract, whether or not actually paid? How do you force the players to pay? What if they refuse to pay? Do we spend time and money suing them for it? Do the players' agents force LSU to front up the money as a condition of the players signing with LSU? What are the mechanics of this? Does anyone on the board have the specifics?

Please explain why NIL deals aren't enforceable? I truly don't understand. As an old washed -up ,retired attorney, it seems to me if the player has signed a contract and is of legal age, then it is enforceable.
