Chambliss is ineligible under both scenarios.....doesn't qualify for 5/5 AND still is denied a redshirt waiver by the NCAA.....but we are picking and choosing punishments

When the NCAA announced the 5 for 5 rule, they said it started with the class of 2023. Everyone else was subject to the old rules. That’s why it doesn’t apply to him.


New Age based rules actually cannot be applied to anyone who exhausted eligibility after the 2025-2026 seasons under the then existing rules. Student athletes with eligibility remaining after 2025-2026 and new incoming ones this fall can apply old or new whichever is most beneficial. Age based rules only start for incoming freshmen classes for 2027.
quote:

The transition to the age-based rules will depend on the student-athlete’s status and enrollment timeline.

Student-athletes who used their final season of competition (under previous rules) during 2025-26:
cannot have the new rule applied to them to gain eligibility.

Current student-athletes with eligibility remaining (under previous rules) after the 2025-26 academic year:
Either the previous rules OR the new age-based rule, whichever is most beneficial to the student-athlete.

Prospects who initially enroll full time at any college or university during 2026-27:
Either the previous rules OR the new age-based rule, whichever is most beneficial to the student-athlete.

Prospects who initially enroll full time at any college or university in fall 2027 or later:
The age-based rule only.

that was a medical RS. not the same. i get it was complete and utter BS tho.
The NCAA didn’t grant him a 6th year. He was denied but a judge granted a restraining order. So ole miss is not following the rules. They’re just not going to be punished because of it. The ncaa complied.

But the SEC and ncaa apparently want to play hardball with LSU. Idk why. Supposedly because the guys we’re getting signed actual pro contracts. IMO it’s because we are the face of the movement and they want to set an example. I don’t know for sure, but it’s my only guess.
