Indiana player was ineligible? Say it aint so!
25 years old, starter, and major contributor to the defense. This shouldnāt be a surprise to anyone, right? What exactly constitutes ineligible anymore?

Oops.
Nice his grandchildren could see him play.
I still think Michiganās title with Harbaugh should be vacated since ncaa did find that the coaching staff cheated. This seems like a rule after the fact
Was Stetson Bennett not 25 during his final season at Georgia. There has to more than just age here.
Yeah, lots of BYU players are older because of their mission. Chris Weinke at FSU was a lot older because he tried baseball, I believe.
This is either bullshit or incompetent reporting. Most likely both. AFAIK, there’s no age limit in CFB.
Yeah Wienke was 26 and that was a point of pride (at least down here in Nole country).
We had a ST/long snappah a few years back that attended UGA after doing a stint in the military. I’m fairly sure he was 25 or older. Not sure what rules apply to walk-ons.
So Carson Beck wins ANOTHER national championship ! Damn.
since the ncaa canāt really do anything, they are trying to shame the hoosiers into some kind of penalty
My thought exactly. The NCAA isn’t doing shit. All hat, no cattle.
The NCAA is consistently CORRUPT!
My understanding of it is his age is not the issue. In SEP Moore sued the NCAA for an extra (6th) year of eligibility claiming JuCo playing time shouldn’t count. He received a Temporary Injunction by the court to allow him to play in 2025-26 while it was being adjudicated. Now that the season is over, he has dropped his suit. Basically he ran out the legal clock until he didn’t need the TI protection.
The NCAA has said “not so fast my friend.” They may win the case, which I assume would have repercussions for the bigger picture going forward.
Part of their remedy could be to have his records wiped as well as the team that he played for. I give the actual chances of that happening the same as Meechigun losing their natty, which is just below zero. So yeah, the headline is 99.9% clickbait.
The NCAA doesn’t have jurisdiction over the CFP, so no one will lose their Natty. That said, the NCAA is a joke at this point.
