NCAA Faces Antitrust Lawsuit Over Transfer Rule

Seven States Seek Temporary Restraining Order Against NCAA's Transfer Rule Enforcement

Seven U.S. states have filed a federal lawsuit against the NCAA, alleging that its transfer rule for college athletes violates antitrust law.
The lawsuit challenges the NCAA's authority to impose a one-year delay in the eligibility of certain athletes who transfer between schools.
The states involved in the lawsuit are West Virginia, Colorado, Illinois, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, and Tennessee.
The lawsuit seeks a temporary restraining order against the NCAA from enforcing the transfer rule.
The NCAA has implemented stricter guidelines for granting waivers for second-time transfers, which are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
