This is what judicial restraint looks like, folks
In a somewhat surprising move yesterday, the NLRB dismissed the petition of the Northwestern student-athletes asking for certification of the union. It only took a year and half for the NLRB to issue its ruling, dismissing the case entirely on jurisdictional grounds, and refusing to hear the case on its merits.
Before we get into the ruling itself, let's cover what this means for LSU: absolutely nothing. I am of the same opinion I was when the regional board ruled in the players' favor, absent a massive and unforeseen political shift, there is no chance that any SEC team forms a union any time in the near future.
