Recent court cases, such as *Wisne v. NCAA* and *Pyburn v. NCAA*, have challenged the NCAA's new age-based eligibility rules, with some initial rulings granting a fifth season of eligibility to certain athletes, though these decisions can be paused or limited by higher courts. Additionally, cases like *Elad v. NCAA* and *Pavia v. NCAA* have found that NCAA restrictions on junior college athletes' eligibility violate antitrust laws, particularly in the context of NIL earnings.
