    I think now is the time to begin this discussion. Obviously the Conners will be instituting a lawsuit against the NCAA to over turn the NCAA descision denying them one additional year of eligibility. What that decision was based upon precisely is not clear. Recent cases have leaned toward loosening the NCAA rules regarding players eligibility due to “anti trust” considerations basically because it negatively affects players economically, I.e. to earn NIL money. It would be very helpful if the administration would make public the actual NCAA written decision on this matter so we could all know where the matter now stands. We can begin the discussion in earnest after we have a clear idea of what the NCAAs decision is all about. Any matters that might compromise the Conners privacy can be redacted or waived by the Conners themselves.

    At Plough's last lunch, he said the NCAA sited precedence about (i think) a volleyball player in a similar situation. What's crazy to me is that the NCAA's stance on eligibility seems so fluid in most cases, but so rigid here. Last year, they decided that JC years didn't count because a player threatened a lawsuit. What's the justification besides trying to avoid a lawsuit?

    That being said....if Rex's injury was an ACL, how confident should we be that we would be physically ready for next season?

    Anyone have any documentation stating that playoff games don't count as scheduled games? Everything I've found indicates they do, there are precedents where they did, and I can't find a report of a change that is said to have occurred last year.

    I’ve seen it on the ncaa website. I’ll look for it.
