Mark Mitchell remains ineligible for Mizzou basketball this season
Summary

Missouri basketball forward Mark Mitchell is currently ineligible to play in the 2026-27 season. The Kentucky Court of Appeals dissolved a temporary injunction allowing him to return to college athletics. Mitchell was part of a legal challenge against the NCAA's eligibility rules. He may pursue new temporary injunctive relief in Missouri, but no assurance of eligibility exists. The Tigers have until their Nov. 3 opener against Cleveland State to find a path for his participation.
