[QUOTE="IM79, post: 984744, member: 2216"] Well, this case is just one Federal Judge's temporary restraining order against the NCAA at the moment until he can have a hearing on the issue. Permanent rulings will come later. the NCAA hasn't decided if they will appeal TRO and attempt to delay the process. Here is the basis of the claim of the states that are suing the NCAA: "We are looking forward to proving definitively that the NCAA has violated the Sherman Act by failing to maintain a consistent and defensible transfer rule and by denying these student athletes the chance to play," Morrisey said. The lawsuit alleged requiring athletes to sit can mean lost potential earnings from endorsement deals with their name, image and likeness or professional careers. It pointed to exposure from competing in national broadcasts, noting: "One game can take a college athlete from a local fan favorite to a household name." "It is ironic that this rule, stylized as promoting the welfare of college athletes, strips them of the agency and opportunity to optimize their own welfare as they see fit," the lawsuit said. Bailey's ruling came after hearing testimony from athletes whose waiver requests to play immediately were denied. [/QUOTE]
