A U.S. District Court of Colorado judge granted a class-wide preliminary injunction that made all high school Class of 2022 athletes with exhausted eligibility eligible for the spring.
Boise State College of Business and Economics ******* ociate professor Sam Ehrlich, an ex-lawyer who writes about collegiate sports law and tracks litigation involving college sports, broke the news on Friday via his social media account.
The injunction means that Florida point guard Denzel Aberdeen's waiver for a fifth year should be granted, unless the NCAA appeals the ruling. Despite going ahead with the new five-for-five rules, athletes from the class of 2022, such as Aberdeen, were not included.
Aberdeen, who played just 41 minutes as a freshman, transferred back to Florida to finish his undergraduate degree after spending what would have been his senior year with the Kentucky Wildcats.
Florida head coach Todd Golden has fervently supported Aberdeen's quest for eligibility, calling it a "common-sense situation," back in April.
