If Mitch were still AD, he probably would've immediately told Pope to hold his horses and not to contact anyone lol.
My question is, why fight it? Exactly what is lost by letting last year's seniors have an extra year. That's exactly what the NCAA is giving every athlete going forward so why must not just go ahead and let that be the case for last year's seniors too? I'm starting to think that the NCAA has an absolute **** legal team that can't see the forest for the trees. Seriously, has the NCAA won one legal battle in the last half decade?
Why not make it legal for all players (from the founding of the NCAA till now) receive a 5th year.
Yes, then we could have Dan Issel play two more years for us.
I have read none of these positions but find the general position for the plaintiffs tenuous. I take more notice now that I see a federal judge has weighed in but only slightly. You leave school under the terms of the old rule and then after the expiration of your eligibility, the rule changes. While anyone can argue it only “fair” you be included in the new rule, “fair” is not a legal cause of action.

Jmo but there is a very real chance this gets overturned. I know no one can afford to wait but it really is risky to sink any money into these guys with this appeal pending.
Even expedited, this appeal will probably take 30-60 days.
Its a really tough situation. All caused by runaway judiciary yet again.
They have no balls just let someone lawyer up and they will tuck tail and run.
When it comes to district court decisions on national class action TROs, you really have to look to see how the representative plaintiff may have forum shopped the judge.
To the judge: why would these players have to enter the “portal” when they left their schools thinking their eligibility was over and the school considered it over as well? They don’t fit the definition of a portal player.
