Looks like the MLB is going to try and force the Guards ALCS Game 4 tonight at 8. Watch Akron soccer for the first half, set up dual screens at half time, watch both from that point on. Then again, I have no idea what window of opportunity the MLB is seeing tonight so we may just being able to give sole focus to Zips soccer all evening.

You're right - I should've been more specific. I was referring to the suits with and behind the NCAA and their financial enrichment that likely comes on the back end of blowing millions on legal fees to fight this.

The NCAA doesn't care about those "kids" lol. Ever since the COVID crap, there have been extra years given all over the place blocking kids from getting playing time. Not to mention the revolving door NIL/transfer portal system they created that has harmed equally as many if not more players. The Class of 2022 has been in the middle of it all and has probably been harmed the most. Apparently Charlie Baker released a statement about the lawsuit and continued to push Congress to pass the Protect College Sports Act. They believe this lawsuit and the steadfast chaos with the 5in5 rule may be the NCAA's last ditch effort to get that passed. Weaponizing this rule to pass that is gross but the NCAA isn't above such low-level behavior.

I need to know who exactly at the NCAA offices in Indy is benefiting from the 2022 class being barred from the 5-in-5 rule, because the NCAA is literally dying on this hill. What a performative load of crap.

Spot on from PK. NCAA needs to throw in the towel. TEMU Jon Rahm isn't beating the logic of the coaches.

West Virginia doesn't count towards anything for us anymore. Imagine how nice that win would've been?

If this is indeed the team that sees the court this year, look out.

Interesting interpretation/explanation. Per the comments, apparently there is precedent, too, which would strengthen the action of the order. Based on what @zippy5 posted above, I'd imagine this is a pretty strong foundation for Oriol and Mahaffey to play.

This. The argument doesn't start with whether or not DeWine/other governors have any ruling authority over the NCAA. It starts with did the NCAA make the right call in barring this class from the eligibility rule change. The answer is no which is why politicians like DeWine are in a position to try and win brownie points with the public by sticking their nose in this mess.

NCAA's statement. And yet the NCAA has governed for years to protect its own interests (money).
