The NCAA is considering a 5-year eligibility limit for college athletes, starting at 19 or high school graduation. The proposal aims to simplify the eligibility process, but its impact on lawsuits over eligibility remains uncertain.
An NCAA panel will discuss potential changes to eligibility rules, including a 5-year limit starting at 19 or high school graduation. The proposal has limited exceptions, but does not include injuries. The NCAA President says the goal is to create a simpler eligibility process. The rule may not shield the NCAA from lawsuits, as dozens of players have sued for extra years. The proposal will be reviewed, but not voted on, next week.
