Emmert runs the NCAA and would never allow LSU to suffer at all. He would never allow the SEC to undergo any financial harm at all.
Look at Emmert's background. What school ties does he have?

- "In 1999, Emmert hired Nick Saban as football coach. LSU won the BCS Championship in 2004 under Saban's tutelage."
- "The graduation rate of the LSU football team, among the lowest in the SEC when Emmert arrived, was among the highest by 2004. In 2001–02, a university instructor made accusations of academic fraud in the school's football program" So either Emmert literally made an already corrupted investigated institution well really quickly or it's more likely nothing changed.
- "At the time, LSU was already on NCAA probation due to violations in the men's basketball program for violations that predated Emmert's employment. A university-led investigation into the academic fraud allegations found only minor violations. The report stated, 'Despite isolated incidents, the allegations were largely unfounded.'"
- "The NCAA accepted LSU's finding and self-imposed minor penalties (loss of two football scholarships) and declined to put the school on probation. Subsequently, two women sued the university for forcing them from their jobs as a result of whistleblowing about the academic fraud. The lawsuits were settled for $110,000 for each person."
- He runs the NCAA now.
