re: Dallas says Sankey can't do anything to the coaches/institutions and see you in court

Except for the fact that the previous players who were denied eligibility didn’t sue and receive a TRO to play while ineligible

That's basically every single players. Pavia (and the 50 other players involved in that suit) played before the case was head on its merits for example.

The NCAA is currently listed as a defendant in over 500 active eligibility cases - all of which the athlete will be attempting to play under a TRO or injunction. And that's how it's been since basically 2021.

This is Pandora’s box. If this holds, there are no rules going forward. You think you’ve seen wild shite this offseason, just wait. Unlimited eligibility is coming next. Four years and now five is completely arbitrary and based on tradition. Someone will find a local judge to throw it out the window.

We are absolutely nowhere near rock bottom.

That's 100% what's next. 5 for 5 has no legal basis. Prohibiting anyone from returning from the NFL or NBA has no legal basis. It'll make unlimited transfer portal and NIL stuff look tame.

What really keeps the Big 10 and SEC from becoming a defacto minor league in which players go back and forth from the NFL to college, outside of an NFL regulation? And I doubt they'd be against it.

It'd probably be skewed toward younger players as I assume you'd still have to be enrolled.

If that happened, the rest of P4 would probably become some weird mix of traditional college players and former pros.

G5 probably becomes the new "real CFB" because they won't be able to pay enough in profit share/NIL to keep players playing full time, if they couldn't make it at higher levels.

Chambliss' attorney admitted that part of their argument is that eligibility should be extended because it would hurt his earning potential to not see the contract through.

So yes the endless eligibility has been in motion.

Just sign someone to a 10 year contract and argue you can't limit his earnings by breaking his contract.

This board has been overrun by dumbass crawfish suckers defending their degenerate coach.

It just continues to demonstrate what a mess college athletics has become. The latest controversy isn’t simply about athletes wanting an extra year of eligibility. In some cases, athletes pursued professional opportunities believing their college careers were over, only to later see eligibility rules change through court rulings and legal challenges. Now some are attempting to return after signing professional contracts or spending time on professional rosters.
This is a symptom of a much bigger problem. Over the years, the NCAA has steadily lost much of its authority and ability to govern the sport. Transfer restrictions have been challenged, NIL has fundamentally changed the landscape, and courts are increasingly determining eligibility issues that were once handled by the NCAA.

The result is a system with few consistent guardrails and rules that seem to change every season. That creates uncertainty for athletes, universities, coaches, agents, and fans alike.

At some point, university leaders and conferences need to come together and establish a governance framework with real oversight, consistency, and accountability. College athletics desperately needs rules that protect everyone involved while providing clarity and stability for the future.

See what happens when you bring Texas into the fray

Sankey is such a clown

He was this boards favorite hero a couple of hours ago. So many butthurt idiots post here.

This is the final nail in the NCAA until a CBA is negotiated.
