Lawyers ask judge to block SEC from punishing LSU if RJ Luis Jr. added to roster
Lawyers for RJ Luis Jr., who was briefly under contract with two NBA teams in 2025 but never played in a game, are asking a Louisiana judge to block the SEC from punishing LSU if Luis is added to the Tigers' roster. Lawyers for RJ Luis Jr., who was briefly under contract with two NBA teams in 2025 but never played a game, are asking a Louisiana judge to block the SEC from punishing LSU if Luis is added to the Tigers' roster. The request was part of a petition filed in state district court in East Baton Rouge Parish, where Judge Ronald R. Johnson recently granted a preliminary injunction against the NCAA, which argues that Luis is ineligible to play. The SEC has a long-established rule against teams adding players with major professional experience to their rosters, and in September, updated provisions stated that the commissioner could suspend coaches, fine universities up to half of a sport's budget and restrict a member university's voting privileges on conference matters. Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill has criticized the SEC's stance, calling its federal case "garbage."
