Big Ten, SEC Ban Faces Legal Challenge

The Big Ten and SEC's ban on NFL-contract players faces legal challenges as attorneys prepare to file a contempt-of-court motion against the NCAA.

The Big Ten and SEC's decision to ban players who have signed NFL contracts from returning to their member schools may violate a court injunction that allowed former Browns tight end Dae'Quan Wright to join LSU.

Attorney Ryan Downton plans to request a contempt ruling against the NCAA, alleging conferences under its purview are 'blatantly violating court orders' and engaging in 'cartel-like coordination.' The legal team is considering appropriate responses to hold the conferences accountable for what they claim is an attempt to leverage chaos to pass the Protect College Sports Act. newsbetting.club
