Hearing postponed as LSU backs off bid to add former NFL players LSU and the SEC did not have their scheduled day in court. A scheduled hearing at the Hugo L. Black United States Courthouse in Birmingham was continued to a later date. LSU made a prolonged attempt to add former NFL players to its roster, but they backed off that attempt Tuesday night, officially leaving those two players off their final roster. With the hearing delayed, it remains unclear whether the legal action will continue or whether the SEC and LSU will resolve the dispute outside of federal court.
