Title: SEC Close to Approving New Rules for Rescheduling Games Post by: Marshal Dillon on January 09, 2017, 01:27:21 PM How a fiasco leads to change.
Quote Southeastern Conference commissioner Greg Sankey is close to having full authority to reschedule league games. Sankey said Sunday that SEC athletic directors voted unanimously last month to approve a regulation that would give the commissioner unilateral control, something he didn't have when LSU and Florida were in an acrimonious stalemate amid Hurricane Matthew. Quote Florida only agreed to play at Tiger Stadium after Sankey made a determination to disqualify from SEC championship contention any school that fails to play the eight league games called for by conference rules and regulations. So the Gators had little choice other than to play on the road. :dog: http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/18431555/sec-close-approving-new-rules-rescheduling-games |
