Jalen Washington's eligibility setback for Tennessee basketball confirmed

Jalen Washington faces continued ineligibility for the Tennessee basketball team following a ruling by the Tennessee Supreme Court on Oct. 16. The court denied Washington's request to review an earlier order related to his transfer to Tennessee after exhausting his collegiate eligibility. Washington, who previously received a temporary injunction to transfer, is currently unable to compete in games while he challenges the NCAA's new eligibility rules in court. He has practiced with the team but did not play in a recent exhibition against Xavier.
