Welcome to The Peper Law Firm, where winners win.

[Darren Heitner @heitner]

Many courts have sided with athletes in identical circumstances in the recent past, including in the case in which I represent Tristan Smith. @HEITNERLEGAL is proud to represent Dean Miller in his effort to secure eligibility to compete for the University of Central Florida in the 2026 season. We will advocate vigorously on his behalf.

A South Carolina judge granted Clemson wide receiver Tristan Smith a temporary injunction against the NCAA on June 12, making him eligible to play one more football season. https://t.co/EcvtGacyol

Spoke with the other half of Tristan Smith's legal representation,@peplawchs, on their winning case against the NCAA.

"When we delivered the news to Tristan ... he was so overcome with emotion, he couldn't speak. He was crying tears of joy."

Winners Win!!!

[Darren Heitner @heitner]

Big win for our client, Tristan Smith. A South Carolina court just granted a temporary injunction against the NCAA, restoring his eligibility to compete for Clemson this fall. The NCAA's arbitrary application of its Five-Year Rule didn't hold up. Justice for Tristan! https://t.co/lw9UIGTE6I

@peplawchs @MPepLaw I read the Motion and Order. Excellent work! Smart to utilize the NCAA's failure to plead as a basis for the Motion to Reconsider.

Very well done!

[Peper Law Firm @peplawchs]

We did it! Today’s ruling allows Hickman to re-join the team until
further Order of the Court!

@MPepLaw lead attorney of The Peper Law Firm in Charleston, South Carolina issued the following statement:
“Connor’s a winner, and he’s thrilled that today’s Order allows him to continue competing with his teammates against as they compete for the regular season and CAA tournament championship. Connor and his fiancé love Cougar Nation, and he’s extremely grateful for all the support shown by the best basketball fans in America.”
