SEC Presidents Meet Without Voting LSU Out

Empty conference-call squares around a statement with no vote tally

TL;DR

WAFB files a statement that discussions will continue after a Thursday call with no expulsion vote.

MSM Perspective

WAFB files the SEC statement on expectations and responsibilities, not a penalty.

X Perspective

Tiger feeds treat no vote as a win over Sankey.

SEC presidents and chancellors met by videoconference Thursday and did not vote LSU out. [1] The conference said discussions on expectations and responsibilities will continue. Wednesday this paper printed a postponed hearing. Thursday the membership vote did not happen.

WAFB filed the statement as mush with a timestamp. [1] Fox Sports filed the same meeting without a membership vote. [2] No vote is not a dismissal of the lawsuit. Rousse recused. A statement about continuing discussions is not a penalty and not a pardon.

The roster fight that filled the hearing is still the lawsuit's subject. Two former NFL names are not Thursday's vote. A moot claim from Baton Rouge is not a federal order. Print no vote. Do not print expelled. Do not print cleared.

Print the call. Print the missing tally. Leave a named sanction to the edition that owns a named sanction.
