All of this could have been avoided if the NCAA would have made the new ruling on 12/5/26.

Ineptitude, or planned chaos?

Or chaos planned by ineptituders?

As long as you are a corporation in the United States you are subject to the courts. Judges exist to rule on laws.
Even lawyers disagree on interpretation of laws.

So why don’t this imply to ineligible players also that were ruled eligible by a state judge
( Chambliss) . They can ban these players that were ruled eligible by a state judge . So why can they ban others that were ruled ineligible….. either you’re eligible or not according to the ncaa.

No TRO will be granted for that.

No lol.
I mean, if DeBoer was proactive and wasn’t terrified of his own shadow, y’all could’ve done this and gotten some needed depth pieces. I promise none of us would’ve batted an eye. But instead ya’ll choose to act morally superior and just bitch incessantly.

So Conferences can engage in tortious interference that the court has expressly enjoined because of antitrust laws? Yeah . . . I don't think so.



What the hell are you talking about?

Does this mean that Joe Burrow, Chase, and Jefferson might one day come back to LSU, once their NFL career is over?

IMO... if he takes it to court, he wins based upon the previous court rulling..

Disclaimer: I am no lawyer...

The NCAA and the conferences letting the courts get involved will prove to be catastrophic for the credibility of all...

When will the SEC ban players who were granted a 6th year of eligibility?

Look at this from players viewpoint and it’s hard to make a case that they should not be allowed to play another year of college ball

Time for 32-64 of the top athletic schools to break ties with the NCAA and conferences to form their own league. It’s about the only thing that makes sense anymore.

So when the playoffs start, non SEC teams can allow these players to, but not SEC teams…. Brilliant!!!

Notice the language. For football, they deny everything, even “other professional football leagues.”
For basketball, it’s limited to NBA, g-league, or WNBA or affiliate. It doesn’t include foreign professional leagues.

Why haven’t they included other sports?
College soccer players, even those on scholarship, can play semipro in the offseason and some have even played professionally overseas. They are mainly washouts, but they got paid

I wonder why that is?

He will not win. And the reason was clarified by the federal judge last month...
On August 2, 2026, U.S. District Judge Charlotte N. Sweeney in Denver clarified that the injunction did not override existing NCAA roster limits, transfer rules, or revenue-sharing caps, meaning players could only return if schools had available roster spots, eligibility and scholarship/revenue space.

The La. court cannot force a school to accept someone ineligible for multiple other reasons besides the exception created by the 5 for 5..
