U.S. Department of Justice joins multi-state lawsuit challenging NCAA restrictions on transfers​

The NCAA's ongoing legal battle with several states now includes the Department of Justice​

The NCAA is now staring down a new legal opponent as the U.S. Department of Justice joined a lawsuit from several states on Thursday challenging NCAA transfer restrictions. At stake is whether the NCAA will be allowed to continue mandating that second-time undergraduate transfers sit out a season before participating in competition.

A U.S. District Court judge issued a temporary injunction in the case on Dec. 13, leading to immediate eligibility for dozens of second-time transfer basketball players around the country. However, the fate of the rule beyond this academic year remains up in the air, pending the outcome of the case.

The NCAA faces a tough battle with the DOJ on board and 11 states now participating in the lawsuit, which asserts the NCAA's transfer rules are "an illegal restraint on college athletes' ability to sell their image and likeness and control their education." A trial date has note been set.

"There is strength in numbers," said Ohio attorney general Dave Yost, whose office filed the initial lawsuit. "This case would never have come to pass had many players not been sidelined by the NCAA's arbitrary and unfair rule. We're fighting for better competition and long-term change."

Just sayin': "The writing is on the wall." Eventually any player eligible to transfer can transfer (and as many times as he wants) without having to sit out year.

Yeah I think we need to get the best… this whole “upset the room” stuff is how we end up with 3 points in the cotton bowl again in the future.

If Sayin is better than Lincoln/Devin/Air then go get him. Sayin would for sure not play next year so the true concern would be chasing off Air.

But again, if the staff thinks Sayin is better then Air then go get him.

Greed is a deadly sin. You don't just piss off Noland, you piss off any future recruit. You do this and any recruit we get can be asked "you sure they're not going to pull the rug on you last minute?" And it would be a valid question. It's not worth it when we already have a superstar QB.
