Let the chaos commence! Although many rosters around college basketball are set and many budgets have been spent, an influx of talent is headed to the transfer portal, thanks to a series of court injunctions granted to a bevy of players to retain their eligibility in light of the NCAA’s recently-approved age-based eligibility model.
The rule, which was approved in June, guarantees all athletes a five-year window to complete five seasons based on their age. Only, the NCAA opted to implement the new model beginning Saturday, which effectively made the Class of 2022, whose eligibility had expired under old rules, ineligible.
