Any update on Cayden Lee

Word was probably Georgia or Mizzou.

I thought Trinidad was confirmed to not receive an additional year of eligibility

I think he was denied on about 4 attempts and is now appealing in some small town court in Oxford to try to get an “injunction” which as I understand is just a loop hole around the ncaa that will as the OM fans say “guarantee” him another year.

Right that’s what I’m not understanding, seems to not make any sense and if that’s the case everyone in the country could get an extra year if they wanted.

Also agree he should go pro, think he would go mid to late first round giving him a higher chance of not going to a poverty franchise

He was denied but is appealing.

Suing in a Mississippi court, not appealing, is my understanding.

The appeal was heard yesterday at the NCAA

Thanks, Honkus. I missed that one.

To me, if Anthony Richardson was a first rounder then surely Trinidad is.

There are first-rounders who are the result of some executive deciding he knows better than his scouts or a coach irrationally falling in love with a player they could have picked up later. And they rarely work out for the team.

A lot of misinformation/confusion about Chambliss eligibility timeline. Will try to clarify.

In October 2025, Ole Miss submitted waiver request to NCAA for Chambliss to obtain medical redshirt approval for 2022 season while at Ferris State. This waiver request was apparently supplemented by OM in November 2025.

In early December 2025, NCAA denied OM’s initial waiver request. OM then appealed to appropriate NCAA Committee level.

On January 9, 2026, the day after OM lost to Miami in CFP, NCAA issued press release of its Committee level denial of Chambliss’ waiver request. OM then appealed to final NCAA body with administrative authority.

Yesterday, January 21, 2026, NCAA held a hearing on final administrative appeal.

At this time, all parties are awaiting NCAA ruling at this final admin appeal level, but consensus expectation is another denial of the waiver request. This would be the last stage in the proceedings at the administrative level.

If final admin appeal is favorable to Chambliss, he’d be immediately eligible and there’d be nothing further to do. However, if ruling is as expected, the next stage of civil litigation will continue on - which is why Chambliss has already since filed Petition for Preliminary Injunction and Permanent Injunction at Mississippi state court level as of January 16, 2026.

No hearing is set in that case as of yet. Expectation is Chambliss is simply awaiting the NCAA final ruling on the appeal to ask the MS state judge for a hearing on the preliminary injunction first, after which there would be a full trial on the merits of the permanent injunction request. Both dates are undetermined but the preliminary injunction hearing would be set on an expedited basis (within 15-30 days of the request) and the permanent injunction would be several months down the road from there. Expectation is Chambliss will likely be successful in obtaining a preliminary injunction from MS state court (see Pavia and Alabama basketball player’s cases). The NCAA’s best chance of defeating Chambliss is on an appeal and to a lesser degree the full trial on the merits of the permanent injunction (or if it can figure out a non-diversity basis to remove the case to federal court). With all of that said, Chambliss is mainly focused on obtaining the preliminary injunction relief and then delaying ruling on the permanent injunction relief until a time after the 2026 season concludes, which by that time would be moot.

Don’t think it’s him, it’s his circle and all the people that “care” about him from Ole Piss. He’s retarded not to enter the draft this year.
