SEC commissioner Greg Sankey speaks out against pros returning to college as RJ Luis seeks eligibility at LSU
Sports2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported39m ago
SEC commissioner Greg Sankey has formally requested that a judge uphold NCAA regulations prohibiting professional athletes from returning to college competition. This legal stance is part of a broader effort to prevent professional players from re-entering the collegiate system, a practice Sankey argues creates significant disruption within the sport.
The issue has gained prominence as RJ Luis, a former Big East Player of the Year, seeks eligibility to play at LSU. Luis is attempting to return to the college level after signing a two-way professional contract following the 2025 NBA Draft, in which he went undrafted.
