Judge clears way for Texas to bring back O-lineman who attended NFL rookie camps

I’m shocked there’s no apparent outrage over UT obtaining an injunction from a local judge to avoid clear NCAA eligibility rules.

UT creates their own rules and has for a very long time.

I don’t understand why Sark would need this guy if his current roster is so good that he could win the B12 with his backups…

If this was SFA instead of the cow school, Hutson would be working at Popeyes instead of playing! WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE?

Me neither!

The rules say he’s ineligible to play another year. I’m waiting for all of the SEC schools to threaten to kick them out for playing an ineligible player solely on the basis of a temporary injunction that ignores the very straightforward NCAA rule.

Why do the pro sports leagues have an antitrust exemption?

And look at this following story… Sark had to let these players go for… CAP SPACE…???

Disgusting.

I guess the ineligible OL would come back in under some kind of cap exception? :roll_eyes:

What are these “rules” everyone is speaking of…

This is college football, we don’t need no rules.

Exactly. Do anything you want and dare someone to stop you.

Any “rule” is just an unenforceable guideline at this point.

SEC schools don’t seem to fear UT at all. So let this decision ride for a while and keep this chip in your back pocket.Later in the year when it comes down to SEC deciding tie breakers for playoff spots…play the card that says UT played an ineligible player and every game he was in is forfeited.

I’m still mad about the fact that a UT alum was working replay reviews at our game in 2023. We had clearly made the first down towards the end of the game and he overruled the referees on the field. It’s been standard for the visiting team in non-conference games to have their conference officials officiate the game. But for them to have their own alum in the replay booth?? How does that even happen? There’s no way that should have been approved. If there’s a close call, there’s no way they’ll rule against their alma mater.

Yeah I was there and we made that first down by a huge amount then the ref walked the ball back 3 ft. I couldn’t believe it. It wasn’t for sure we win it after with a first down but we’d have 4 attempts to score a td. This is why I don’t ever miss playing UT.

It’s called collective bargaining.

I’m just waiting until we have sideline lawyers with a Judge on call.

Flag - ineligible receiver. Went out of bounds and came back in then caught the ball.
Lawyer fasts tracks a form to the on call Judge to get a temporary injunction on the flag call. Rule is not valid here and player deserves to be heard. No penalty can be counted towards him for this game.
Judge agrees.
Resume game with the catch counting towards the players stats (and future draft consideration) and new field position upheld for the team.

I think Mr. Sinus infection was checked out and didn’t want us to win the game. Ship sailed and all, surely he knew who that replay official was. Or someone knew and was asleep or sold us out. Who determines who the replay official is? Rat somewhere on that.

Oh… really… that’s how they get around being considered a monopoly?

I don’t know squat about that stuff and prefer to keep it that way… but that’s interesting to me…

You seem to have left - no “stinking” rules . . . . . :joy: :joy: :joy:
