Kudos to bro! God has a plan for us all! But this is sickening. NCAA needs to do better! We all should have the same right… not just go off of if we can afford to get a lawyer which most of us can’t! Or by the state your in to win our case. We are eligible just like them!! @NCAA

[Dareon Goodrum @GoodrumDareon]

@zen808guy @PeteThamel He’s speaking for about 1500 players like myself in the same situation how do you issue a waiver for a select few and not all make it make sense especially when you had pretty good offers on the table

[Pete Thamel @PeteThamel]

Lincoln Riley makes a common sense appeal to the NCAA regarding the atheltes who’ve had their eligibility jammed up in the inconsistent state-by-state rulings: “It’s hard for me to fathom why we wouldn’t do the right thing and have a blanket waiver.”

After consulting with lawyers, their advice is to pursue a clock extension waiver before considering any legal action. I meet all the criteria for the Pavia Waiver, except for being past the 5-year clock. I've played two years at the Division 1 level and three years at a junior college, with one year impacted by COVID. The waiver is already written, so I just need to submit it. Given my unique situation, I believe I have a strong case for an extra year of eligibility. I'm looking to connect with any Division 1 schools that can assist in submitting my waiver, especially since time is of the essence. I’m training daily and will be ready to jump right into a program and work.

@samcehrlich It’s about 40 guys in Jack Hasz situation who all went Juco who could all win there cases easily

🚨 @NCAA @CharlieBakerMA ❗️❗️❗️

Now that the House settlement has been approved, many student-athletes are finally seeing progress.

But what about the rest of us—especially JUCO athletes left behind?

I’ve spoken personally with 50+ players—from FCS, G5, Power 4, who were all told at some point:
“You’re eligible.”
We transferred. We took visits. We practiced. We signed NIL deals.
Then months later—after the NFL Draft, Pro Day, and Combine—we were told: “You’re actually not eligible.”❕

That’s not miscommunication. That’s failure at every level❗️

And while the clock keeps ticking, I know players personally who are sleeping on couches at their schools.
Their leases have ended, their scholarship money is frozen, and they’re not even able to eat consistently—waiting and hoping just to get back on the team.

People’s lives are literally on the line… and it feels like the NCAA couldn’t care less.

You released a blanket waiver with no public explanation, no PDF, and no official statement.
Everything we know has come from outside reporters like @RossDellenger and @chris_hummer.
Even compliance departments were confused—some schools built full rosters with us, only to be left scrambling weeks before fall camp.

When I called the NCAA directly, they told me:

“We don’t know anything—ask your school.”

When I asked my school, they said I was cleared.
They even updated my Transfer Portal profile to reflect it.
And yet here I am—alongside dozens of others—in limbo.

We’re not being denied for breaking rules…
We’re being denied because the system broke us.”❗️

Players like Diego Pavia, Jett Elad, and Blake Bustard Etc won in court.
But only after spending tens of thousands of dollars.
Most of us can’t afford that. That’s not “access.” That’s economic discrimination‼️

Players like @__sul3 and @AshtynHawkins @brianSantana28 Etc gave everything in spring practice.
They were competing. Participating. Training with their teams.
Then were told they were ineligible—after the NFL Draft.

That’s not just unfair. It’s career sabotage.‼️‼️‼️

Imagine training for your Pro Day your whole life, only to be told in April that you can’t compete❗️
Some of these guys had legit @NFL Draft stock❗️
It’s almost impossible to make it to the NFL after missing a full year of film, exposure, and competition‼️

🛑 What’s worse is that this violates the NCAA’s own rules:

🔹 Bylaw 12.8.1.6 – “Exceptions to the Five-Year Rule must be applied consistently to similarly situated student-athletes.”

That isn’t happening.
Some athletes are playing. Others aren’t.
There’s no consistency, no clarity, and no urgency—with fall camp starting August 1st and today being June 7th. That’s less than two months.

✅ We’re asking for one thing:
A blanket waiver for JUCO athletes whose five-year clocks started before they entered an NCAA institution.

That’s not unlimited eligibility.
That’s not special treatment.
That’s justice. That’s consistency. That’s what the NCAA claims to stand for.

But this goes deeper now, especially with the House v. NCAA settlement now approved:

The NCAA has acknowledged that student-athletes are part of a commercial system—essentially treating us as employees under collective compensation and NIL structures.
So if that’s the case, how is it legal to deny us access to our professional futures—by blocking us from Pro Days, eligibility, and NFL exposure?

This raises major antitrust concerns and employment law issues.
You can’t claim we’re part of the “marketplace” while also denying us a chance to compete in that marketplace.
That’s not just unethical—it may be illegal.

Charlie Baker—this is your moment.

And respectfully… it’s wild that I’ve posted about this multiple times, reaching hundreds of thousands of people—and yet, you’ve said nothing.
You’re still online retweeting other content while players are sleeping on couches and being denied futures.

Fix the waiver. Let us play‼️

It's crucial for Mr. Charlie Baker @CharlieBakerMA @NCAA to recognize the urgency of our situation and provide timely resolution. So guys can find a home! #FixTheWaiver #WeStandTogether @NJCAA_Exec @Meadows_NJCAA

@NCAA Antitrust Violation‼️
@CharlieBakerMA — You all need to fix this issue before it spirals out of control.
The NCAA JUCO waiver is now creating major problems. Could this lead to a full class-action lawsuit?
• NCAA is in violation of Bylaw 12.8.1.6
