NCAA seeks reversal on class of 2022 eligibility ruling in Colorado

The NCAA is appealing to the Colorado 10th Circuit to reverse a ruling that granted the class of 2022 student-athletes a fifth year of eligibility. This follows a temporary injunction issued by Judge Charlotte Sweeney, which allowed extra eligibility for these recruits. NCAA Chief Legal Officer Scott Bearby reaffirmed the organization’s stance against retroactive application of its age-based eligibility model. The NCAA must file its reply brief by August 17 to continue its legal challenge, aiming for a stay on the injunction pending appeal.
