2) That the NCAA didn't notify that the substance was banned when they put out their information to coaches and staff across the country at the beginning of the Fall sports season. Having worked with the NCAA on this, I would be very surprised if that happened.
The NCAA ban is on classes of drugs. Not individual drugs. It won't work to say I was taking androsterodrol and it's not listed.
The chance of this appeal's success on the merits is low, IMO. But the NCAA sucks, so anything could happen.

They do get more specific when they report to the schools themselves ( this is old but a good example of what they sent to trainers/coaches to hand to the athletes). The PPA notice at the bottom of the 2nd page in what I linked is a good example of a substance that was banned that was previously OK by NCAA standards. And they typically give advance notice if something is being added to the list.
