CLASS OF 2022 ELIGIBILITY UPDATE, SEPT. 19-20, 2026
The divide is now visible on the field. Athletes with operative court protection played Saturday. Athletes without it did not.
𝗦𝗘𝗣𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥 𝟭𝟵
1. INDIANA. DALEY AND WYATT v. NCAA
Stephen Daley and Kellan Wyatt did not play against Western Kentucky. Their TRO expired after the September 14 hearing in Monroe County Circuit Court, and Judge Kara Krothe has not yet ruled on the preliminary injunction. Both can practice but cannot compete. An expired TRO does not bar practice, but it does not allow game participation without a signed preliminary injunction.
2. WASHINGTON AND ARIZONA. GRADY GROSS / HARRIS v. NCAA
Grady Gross made his 2026 debut against Eastern Washington on Saturday, handling six kickoffs. Washington expressly stated a ruling permitted him to utilize a fifth year of eligibility. Postgame reporting indicates he received a favorable response in his lawsuit earlier in the week out of Pima County Superior Court before Judge Randi Burnett. The exact later Arizona court document has not surfaced publicly. This does not resolve his permanent eligibility.
3. ARKANSAS. CALEB WOODEN v. NCAA
Caleb Wooden played for Arkansas against Georgia. His September 14 preliminary injunction from Washington County Circuit Court, Judge Doug Martin, remains active. A preliminary injunction protects competition but does not decide the final merits of the case.
4. MISSISSIPPI. SOUTHERN MISS / NUNNERY v. NCAA. ACTIVE PROTECTION
Greg Nunnery Jr., Aloali'i Maui and Jameer Lewis remain protected by the Forrest County litigation. The September proceeding was reset and continued, and their temporary protection continued rather than expiring outright on September 14. Maui and Lewis subsequently started against UConn, confirming Southern Miss continues to treat them as eligible. Continued temporary protection does not resolve the final merits of their eligibility.
𝗦𝗘𝗣𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥 𝟮𝟬
5. OHIO. BOROVICANIN v. NCAA
The First District Court of Appeals stay still blocks the 24-player preliminary injunction. The NCAA must respond to the athletes' emergency request at the Supreme Court of Ohio by 9.00 AM ET Monday. An impending filing deadline does not lift the stay.
6. WISNE v. NCAA
The Tenth Circuit stay from August 21 remains in effect. A federal appellate stay does not resolve the underlying statutory claims.
𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗛𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗦 𝗜𝗡 𝗖𝗢𝗨𝗥𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗞
Monday, September 21
9.00 AM ET. Supreme Court of Ohio. NCAA response due in Borovicanin v. NCAA on emergency motion to vacate the appellate stay.
2.00 PM MST. Pima County Superior Court, Arizona. Judge Randi Burnett holds Harris preliminary injunction hearing.
Tuesday, September 22
9.30 AM ET. Ohio First District Court of Appeals. Oral argument in Borovicanin v. NCAA.
10.00 AM CT. St. Louis County Circuit Court, Missouri. Gus Tettamble preliminary injunction hearing. He currently has TRO protection.
Benton County Circuit Court, Oregon. Continued preliminary injunction hearing for Oregon State's Jaheim Patterson and Van Wells. Their TRO was extended through the September 19 game so the NCAA could present additional evidence.
Thursday, September 24
Washington County Superior Court, Rhode Island. Expected preliminary injunction decision for AJ Peña and Justin Carcel. Both can practice but cannot compete.
10.00 AM ET. Southern District of West Virginia. Preliminary injunction hearing in Lorient v. NCAA.
9.30 AM CT. Chicago. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation hearing on whether federal Class of 2022 eligibility cases should be consolidated into an MDL. This is procedural and does not itself change anyone's eligibility.
Friday, September 25
Travis County District Court, Texas. Preliminary injunction hearing in Hudson v. NCAA.
𝗖𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗 𝗗𝗥𝗢𝗣 𝗔𝗧 𝗔𝗡𝗬 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘
Judge Kara Krothe's ruling in Monroe County Circuit Court, Indiana. Stephen Daley and Kellan Wyatt cannot compete until she acts.
Post-hearing preliminary injunction decisions in New York state courts for Gayle, Monroe, and Pearce.
Monday morning is the next inflection point. The Supreme Court of Ohio response and the Arizona hearing could move the entire board.

I love how hands stealing the ball hasn't existed in 2K for 4 years. Because the game no longer has mo cap or a collision engine. Your player's hit box is just an oval bubble. No legs no head no arms. The only reason she was able to get that (in theory) easy steal is because her BODY (the only hit box in the game) moved forward and collided with the ball. 2K his literally the same level of physics as Roblox Basketball (maybe even less) we are playing AI slop ice skate invisible player hoops.

CLASS OF 2022 ELIGIBILITY BOARD. SEPT. 7
Here is the current state-by-state board after the Aug. 21 stay of the nationwide Wisne injunction.
ACTIVE PROTECTION
• Kentucky. Wells/Edwards group. Expanded TRO remains in force. NCAA emergency stay effort failed. Afari and Jabari Mack have now PLAYED.
• Louisiana. Preliminary injunction entered. NCAA/SEC restrictions enjoined for covered plaintiffs. SEC says it will appeal, but I have not seen an appellate stay.
• Texas. Hudson group remains protected. Major hearing Sept. 11.
• Texas. Traevon Mitchell remains protected.
• Oklahoma. Tockey/Saili group protected. Danny Saili has now played.
• Oklahoma. Braxton Fely protected, including portal/Rule of Restitution relief.
• Arkansas. Wooden/Williams protected by agreed TRO extension.
• New Mexico. Brett Karhu protected and has now played.
• Oregon. Van Wells/Jaheim Patterson protected. Both played Sept. 5.
• Indiana. 8-athlete TRO remains active. Stephen Daley played Sept. 5.
• Missouri. Sterling Webb protected against NCAA + Missouri itself. He has played.
• New York. Monroe, Gayle and Pearce currently have TRO protection.
• Georgia. Godfrey group protected. NCAA appeal pending, but no stay located.
• New Jersey. Kromah protected. NCAA has ASKED for a stay, but I have not seen one granted.
• Southern Miss. Nunnery/Lewis/Maui protected through Sept. 14.
STAYED
• Tennessee. Trial-court injunction stayed on appeal.
• Ohio/Borovicanin. 24-player injunction stayed pending appeal.
• Wisne nationwide injunction. Still stayed by the Tenth Circuit.
DENIED
• Nevada/Cruz
• Nevada/Fuller emergency relief
• South Carolina/Dalley
• Federal Trotter group
RELIEF REQUESTED / WATCH
• Arizona. Max Harris/Ismail Mahdi
• Kentucky. Kalib Perry trying to join Edwards group
• Mississippi State. Manning/Sylla
• Florida. Steen
• Ole Miss/Micah Handlogten. Eligibility remains unresolved.
IMPORTANT NEW PRACTICAL EXAMPLE.
Texas OL Cole Hutson previously won court relief on the Class-of-2022 issue, but Texas now says he is STILL INELIGIBLE because of a separate NCAA issue.
That may be the best illustration yet that winning the “2022 fifth-year” issue does not automatically clear every other NCAA or conference eligibility hurdle.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
This is the Class-of-2022 calendar to watching.
SEPT. 8
• Wisne athletes’ Tenth Circuit merits brief due
• West Virginia Kelly/Straw PI hearing
• NCAA response due in Helms
SEPT. 9
• Borovicanin Ohio appellate brief due
• Vince Iwuchukwu PI hearing in New York
SEPT. 10
• Arkansas Wooden/Williams PI hearing
• Oregon Wells/Patterson PI hearing
SEPT. 11. BIG DAY
• Indiana 8-athlete PI hearing
• Texas Hudson 41-plaintiff hearing
• Missouri Tettamble hearing
• NCAA reply due in Wisne
• NCAA response due in Monroe
SEPT. 14
• Southern Miss Nunnery TRO endpoint/hearing period
SEPT. 15
• Baylor/Traevon Mitchell temporary-injunction hearing
SEPT. 16
• Benjamin Pearce PI hearing
SEPT. 17
• Amarri Monroe PI hearing
• Roddy Gayle PI hearing
SEPT. 22
• Borovicanin oral argument before Ohio First District
SEPT. 24
• NCAA age-based eligibility JPML/MDL hearing in Chicago
• Lorient federal PI hearing
SEPT. 25
• Koonin PI hearing in New Jersey
SEPT. 29
• Glancey PI hearing in California
And one date correction that keeps getting mixed up.
SEPT. 22 is BOROVICANIN oral argument in Ohio.
There is still NO confirmed Wisne oral-argument date.
The bottom line. The nationwide Wisne injunction remains stayed, but the state-court strategy is very much alive. We now have multiple athletes who have gone.
Wisne stay → individual state TRO → survive NCAA challenge → actually play.
The next major inflection point looks like Sept. 10-11, when Arkansas, Oregon, Indiana and the large Texas Hudson group all return to court.

NEW: Clemson's Tristan Smith sued the NCAA for more eligibility.
His case is abt JUCO, not 5-for-5 or NFL play. But all the cases have one thing in common: the anxiety of being in limbo and the elation of winning.
"It felt like a second chance at life."

Just want a win dawg
NEW: South Carolina Judge Jessica Salvini denied the Dalley plaintiffs’ request for temporary/preliminary injunctive relief, finding they failed to show a likelihood of success on the merits.
She also raised jurisdiction concerns over many plaintiffs, but did not dismiss the case. A more formal order is due within 10 days.

Big hearings today in Kentucky and South Carolina for 5-in-5 cases. The judge in South Carolina also presides over Tristan Smith v NCAA, where Tristan was granted an injunction this season to play for Clemson.

I still don’t understand what the NCAA is trying to accomplish here.
The classes before 2022 got the COVID year. The classes after them now get 5in5.
But the 2022 class? They just happened to show up at the exact wrong time, so tough luck?
And now the NCAA is actually fighting in court to keep it that way.
They keep saying a 5th year would take opportunities away from younger players. Where? Coaches still have roster limits. They still decide who gets a scholarship and who plays. That’s literally their job.
And if a 5th season is supposedly such a threat to other players…why did the NCAA just create a system that allows it going forward?
None of this needs to be this complicated.
Give the 2022 class a transition year and move on.
They didn’t create this mess. The NCAA did.
Let them play. 🙏
Kam'Ryn Thomas retweeted
Also, the NCAA fighting this tooth and nail actually hurts the student-athletes more than anything. Imagine Seth Trimble just moved to Louisville, now is ineligible. Put the players first!!

My son played at the D-1 level as a freshmen until a broken bone ended his season, he then played each of the next 3 years as leading contributor to his team.
Although he's filed for a medical red shirt waiver to get his freshmen year back, as he only played in 5 games; the NCAA hasn't even assigned anyone to review his filing.
So Bob, tell me why he shouldn't get a 5th year to lead his team after missing most of his freshmen year due to injury, just so some younger athlete that couldn't beat him out on athletic merit can have a roster spot?
Let me guess Bob, you believe in participation trophies too....
EXACTLY! If a class of 2022 player was good enough, it shouldn't matter.
And for the very specific group of class of 2022 players that you are crying about, IT DOESNT MATTER.
They competed against the covid seniors and EVERY ONE of the class of 2022 former student athletes that you want to give a fifth season to got to play FOUR FULL SEASONS.
The members of the class of 2022 who did not get to play four full seasons are still eligible.
The covid year, which was not a "Grey Shirt," (you should get to know your terms if you are going to use them) was to return to CURRENT players something that had been taken away from them. A chance to play a fourth full season. The class of 2022 was not there in 2020, so they didn't qualify for the waiver.
A Grey shirt is used by a school to work around roster and scholarship limits by delaying an incoming freshman's full-time enrollment until January at which point the player takes on the roster and scholarship of a player that leaves school in December after the season. Unlike the covid players, a Grey Shirt is not on scholarship, does not count against the fall roster, and does not practice or participate with the team.
Nothing is being taken away from anybody in the class of 2022. They were not there in 2020 and so were not affected by the covid rule which applied to current students only. And the ones you are so worked up about are no longer college athletes, so they have nothing to do with the new rule which applies to current student athletes.
Of all the athletes to whine about, you choose the guys who had more on field opportunities than most. The guys who completed 4 full years of play in 4 years. That is more than most players either get, or choose, to play.
They were served well, fairly and appropriately by the five to play four rule.
If you expect to see many players playing five FULL seasons, like what you are trying to give to these former players who already racked up four, you are going to be surprised. It'll be very little different than under the redshirt system except that in the case of injury or hardship there will be no possibility for a waiver from the new rule like there was for your former college players who got to play four full seasons.

This is a mess. So many athletes have enrolled and been rostered as a result of the Wisne v. NCAA injunction in Colorado. The appellate court granting a stay now pushes all of those athletes to email, text, DM, and call, begging for emergency action in state courts. Yes, it's a lot of work for us lawyers who work with athletes, and it's going to be loads of billable hours for NCAA counsel. Set aside the economics. There is a real mental, emotional, and educational cost. Does the NCAA even care about the well-being of the "student-athlete"? I truly don't believe so.
The NCAA just filed the 10th Circuit court of appeals decision in Wisne as supplemental authority in the pending Ezra Christensen case after the Court explicitly stated it is working on an order for the pending motion and that no additional actions are needed from the parties.
Furthermore, the 10th Circuit ruling has absolutely nothing to do with our case for Ezra. It seems like the NCAA is trying to confuse the court. Dirty play.
Kam'Ryn Thomas retweeted
With the NCAA appealing the Colorado ruling, any player that received eligibility through that injunction will no longer be eligible
In my opinion it absolutely HAS to be all or none
All these players are in the same boat, you can’t let some of them swim and some of them sink!

Western Kentucky d-lineman Victory Vaka has been granted a temporary injunction against the NCAA that allows him to transfer.
Victory Vaka attended his mom's funeral on May 9. Weeks later, Western Kentucky canceled his scholarship.
Now, multiple FBS teams want to sign him — but NCAA rules won't let him portal because of how WKU classified his departure
It could end his career

Many of the affected 2022 HS grads have signed aid agreements, moved back to campus, signed leases, and are registered for fall classes. Week zero games start in mere days.
I’m struggling to see how this late change in eligibility status supports these student athletes.

Inbox flooded yesterday with Class of 2022 athletes after the Wisne stay. Sorting through it all now. Federal class relief is paused. Athletes who already have their own TRO or injunction keep it. Everyone else is back to square one unless they pursue individual relief. Timing could not be worse for Fall sports.

I just don’t see a world where nationally covered 5th year for the C/O 2022 isn’t allowed but specific state/county cases are approved & allowed.
Different cases & suits but the same law & logic they’re pinning.
Would be worst case scenario if it was only SOME 5th years getting to play.
Think it will end up being an all or nothing, and I think it’s an all & the NCAA appeal gets denied in the end.
Gonna go consult with real legal experts in the meantime & report back
