Mark Mitchell sees eligibility case delayed by judge to next week
Judge Brian Edwards did not rule Friday and asked for more written arguments by Aug. 18 as Mitchell seeks a fifth year and transfer rights.
- On Friday, Missouri forward Mark Mitchell participated in a court hearing at the Jefferson County District Courthouse in Louisville, seeking a fifth year of eligibility and the right to enter the transfer portal.
- Mitchell, a member of the 2022 Class, filed the lawsuit because the NCAA did not grandfather him into its new eligibility structure, which limits athletes to five years of play.
- Although a Colorado ruling allows some 2022 graduates eligibility, it only applies to players already in the transfer portal, leaving Mitchell ineligible for that relief.
- Judge Brian Edwards did not issue a ruling during Friday's hearing, instead requesting both parties submit additional written arguments by Tuesday, Aug. 18, with a decision expected next week.
- The NCAA continues to defend its eligibility rules before the Tenth Circuit while Kentucky classes begin Aug. 24, leaving Mitchell's potential transfer status uncertain as the roster deadline approaches.
