JUCO years will no longer count towards NCAA eligibility

Due to the Diego Pavia ruling, kids can now play 2 years of Juco ball and still have 4 years of NCAA eligibility.

The NCAA just keeps losing on everything and the NIL/transfer stuff is getting out of hand. Based on the other cases that have gone against the NCAA, I imagine this one will eventually stick as well. Some of these kids are going to start making a living just being a college athlete.

I wonder what type of impact this will have on NCAA sports?

While not a binding ruling, Judge Campbell does not disagree. He wrote Wednesday that the NCAA's argument for counting junior college years toward an athlete's eligibility clock "falls flat."

Just as a court ruling ended the NCAA's ability to enforce its transfer rules, and a separate ruling ended the NCAA's ability to enforce its NIL policy, the Pavia case could end the NCAA's ability to enforce its eligibility rules. If Pavia can return in 2025, why not 2026? And if Pavia can play two years for a 2-year school and four more for a 4-year school, why not everyone else? And if that's the case, how can the NCAA enforce its eligibility rules on anyone at all?
