Diego Pavia is suing the NCAA over his eligibility and NIL.

My name is Diego Pavia.

You killed my eligibility.

Prepare to die.

Is there somewhere in the bylaws that says Junior college sports don't count towards eligibility? If he wins this you may as well grant every juco transfer extra years.

You have a 5 year window of eligibility which begins once you enroll full-time at any college, including a JUCO.

12.8 Seasons of Competition: Five-Year Rule. A student-athlete shall not engage in more than four seasons of intercollegiate competition in any one sport (see Bylaws 12.02.6 and 14.3.3). An institution shall not permit a student-athlete to represent it in intercollegiate competition unless the individual completes all seasons of participation in all sports within the time periods specified below: (Revised: 7/31/14)
12.8.1 Five-Year Rule. A student-athlete shall complete the student-athlete's seasons of participation within five calendar years from the beginning of the semester or quarter in which the student-athlete first registered for a minimum full-time program of studies in a collegiate institution, with time spent in the armed services, on official religious missions or with recognized foreign aid services of the U.S. government being excepted. For international students, service in the armed forces or on an official religious mission of the student’s home country is considered equivalent to such service in the United States. (Revised: 4/2/10, 7/31/14)
12.8.1.1 Determining the Start of the Five-Year Period. For purposes of starting the count of time under the five year rule, a student-athlete shall be considered registered at a collegiate institution (domestic or foreign; see Bylaw 14.02.4) when the student-athlete initially registers in a regular term (semester or quarter) of an academic year for a minimum fulltime program of studies, as determined by the institution, and attends the student’s first day of classes for that term (see
Bylaw 12.8.2). (Revised: 7/31/14)

Thank you. Looks pretty clear, not much interpretation needed.

I guess his argument was JUCO isn’t under NCAA jurisdiction, so their rules shouldn’t affect them.
 
Does not prohibit enforcing 5 year rule. Restricted to the disparate treatment of JUCO, Prep School, Jr hockey, etc. On its face, would not impact McCord.
 

Diego Pavia's college career goes on after he won a landmark court ruling in Tennessee, with the Vanderbilt star securing a victory over the NCAA that could have significant consequences
 
This is all so stupid
Good luck to any normal kid who wants to go to a good school for 4 years, play, and move on with his life.

Can't wait for the day where a stud QB in the portal will base his decision on whether or not the school will also offer his son.
 
Yup. Deal.
No. The NCAA has treat all post high school, pre- 4 year college, activities the same. Last I knew, hockey players can play junior hockey until 21, then play college hockey for 4 years. Anyone can play prep school after high school, and still get 4 years.
It doesn’t seem that the NCAA didn’t do a good job in tying the difference to starting the education clock.
