LSU leaves former pro-athletes off final roster, one night before SEC takes Lane Kiffin and Tigers to court

LSU has finalized its 105-player roster for the upcoming season, excluding former Ole Miss players Dae’Quan Wright and Zxavian Harris. This decision was made shortly before the SEC was scheduled to ask a federal judge for a temporary restraining order against LSU and head coach Lane Kiffin. The SEC’s filing accuses LSU of lacking institutional control, particularly over Kiffin’s actions, and seeks to enforce rules regarding athletes with professional ties returning to college sports.
