Though the SEC said it will comply with a Louisiana state judge's order that prohibits the league and commissioner Greg Sankey from punishing schools if they play a football player who returns to campus after signing a contract with an NFL team, the league said it plans to defend its legal rights in court. The NCAA changed its eligibility rules in June. (ESPN)
