NCAA back in court over eligibility rules for Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia

  • Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia is involved in a 2024 lawsuit against the NCAA challenging junior college eligibility rules in U.S. court.
  • Pavia filed suit because the NCAA counts junior college seasons against eligibility, which he argues violates antitrust laws by limiting earning potential.
  • He won a preliminary injunction in December 2024 allowing a sixth playing year and currently leads Vanderbilt to a 3-0 start in 2025 with strong stats.
  • Pavia revealed that he is earning more than $2 million in NIL deals this season and disclosed that transfer offers ranged between $4 million and $4.5 million, underscoring the financial implications involved.
  • The NCAA granted waivers extending eligibility through 2025-26 but plans further legal challenges; Pavia’s attorneys could ask for an injunction to play a seventh year.
