Judge Paves Way for Michigan to Add 2 Midseason Transfers
The ruling clears former Miami tight end Alex Bauman and former Boise State defensive back Jeremiah Earby to play while the NCAA policy challenge continues.
- On Tuesday, Judge Julia B. Owdziej of the Washtenaw County Circuit Court granted a temporary restraining order allowing Alex Bauman and Jeremiah Earby to play for Michigan, making both athletes eligible to compete for the Wolverines this season.
- Both players filed for the order on Sept. 25, challenging the NCAA rule restricting athletes who graduated high school in 2022 as the pair seeks to utilize their fifth year of eligibility.
- Bauman, a 250-pound tight end, recorded 18 receptions for 166 yards last season, while 186-pound cornerback Earby earned All-Mountain West Second Team honors at Boise State.
- NCAA president Charlie Baker criticized Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine earlier this week for signing an executive order permitting 2022 graduates to compete, calling it "One elected official seeking to make their own rules for their own schools' advantage is a terrible way to run athletic competitions."
- Michigan hosts Penn State on Saturday as the team remains 3-2, while a show-cause hearing with the opportunity for the NCAA to appeal is scheduled for Nov. 4.
