This is kinda where I'm at on this deal. I think it's going to be hard to convince a judge that this class or group isn't being treated differently than virtually all of their peers.

It wasn’t 30 minutes but it was close in someone raising the question. Good call .

This is never gonna stand. Not sure what the NCAA is hoping to accomplish but it looks more like a PR stunt to me, like, "Hey, we tried and these dang activist judges did it again!"

I'd rather see a 4 for 4 rule. Especially now with the transfer portal and not having to sit out a year if you transfer, and NIL. College athletes should just have 4 years period.
Or the NCAA could make the 5th year contingent on either getting your bachelor's degree by the time your 5th season starts or being on track to get it by the end of your 5th season. That might provide athletes with more incentive to stay in one place and make progress toward a degree, rather than just being on a quest to stay eligible.

I really don’t wanna see anyone over the age of 23 playing college football. It’s a fuching joke.
I don't really care what happens with this 5-for-5 deal, all I'm saying is their decision to punk the current class of seniors seems pretty punitive compared to everyone on either side of the chronology. I never assume that I know all of the facts or arguments, but on it's face it looks like a slam dunk injunction.

Great can't wait to see more records get broken by players who are half the players who put up those career stats. But who just have more years to play *sigh*.
