Wes Allen

Several groups are challenging the law and presented their oral arguments on the case.

Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall and Secretary of State Wes Allen were there to defend the law.

The Commissioner of the Southeast Conference, Greg Sankey, recently stated that the conference is not afraid to develop their own policies and rules regarding college sports, payment of athletes, and the transfer portal if Congress fails to establish national standards.

Sankey made these comments while he was in Birmingham for the SEC basketball media days.

This decision from the judge comes just days after the Alabama Supreme Court agreed with a lower court to dismiss the lawsuit against Tommy Tuberville, which was also challenging his residency qualifications to run as governor.
