No new presidents' call is in Saturday's conference copy, so no sanctions remains the SEC word and not a cleared LSU.

The feud is not over Saturday. Silence from Birmingham is the conference's native tongue. Saturday translates nothing.
No-vote meetings usually precede either action or burial; the conference has chosen neither so far. LSU prepares for opponents, not verdicts. Saturday's schedule shows practice, not proceedings.

Practiced teams ignore proceedings; Saturday practices. Practice fills schedules. Verdicts wait.
