ICYMI, NCAA President Charlie Baker calls lawsuits against the NCAA an “assault on the integrity of college athletics” but doesn’t mention the NCAA ignoring the law and treating college athletes like cattle is what created the avalanche of lawsuits.

@InsideTheKennel @heitner Hi there, that is our case and we are awaiting a court date.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

⚖️ thank you @WinterSportsLaw

[Mit Winter @WinterSportsLaw]

Alexis is actually eligible based on being a plaintiff in the Washington v NCAA case pending in Tennessee state court.

So he’s an example of an athlete whose eligibility will not be affected if the Wisne preliminary injunction (Colorado case) is stayed or reversed on appeal.

@twelves_tweets @jasonscheer @TexasTrialGroup The Tennessee case includes these plaintiffs:

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

@NeilRausch @samcehrlich @jasonscheer Our Ohio case clients do not have to enter the portal and are free to transfer without using the portal as so ordered by the judge in that ruling.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

@twelves_tweets @samcehrlich @jasonscheer No, it is not a class action. Our focus is our clients and getting them the eligibility they are legally entitled to.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

@jasonscheer @samcehrlich Ours are the Ohio ruling, the Tennessee ruling. We are awaiting the ruling in Georgia and we will be in court this week in North Carolina. We have California on file and are awaiting a date.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

Thank you @samcehrlich

[Sam C. Ehrlich @samcehrlich]

@jasonscheer @TexasTrialGroup Different order. You're talking about the lawsuit in Tennessee that only relates to a specific group of athletes, not the Colorado one that applies to everyone.

I know, complicated!

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

No, that is for our clients in the TN ruling. In Ohio ruling our clients don’t have to enter the portal. Colorado is not our clients or anything to do with our firm. Neither our Ohio or TN clients are effected by Colorado rulings - they are eligible and can transfer.

[Jason Scheer @jasonscheer]

This is confusing because the order originally said there’s a special portal window August 3-10. Is that still the case?

@samcehrlich @TexasTrialGroup

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

Yes, November 2025.

[Rick Pitino @RealPitino]

All of these current issues could have been avoided if the NCAA would have come out with their new legislation in October or November.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

@TonyBruin No, Colorado is not our case. We are focussed on our clients and our cases. Our clients have successful rulings in Ohio and Tennessee - What happens in Colorado has zero impact on their eligibility.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

@StatFreak77 We do not believe so.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

@JessPreusser You don’t know much. We know that for certain.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

“Mr. Baker,” Downton said, “derides these athletes as ‘failed professionals’ [but] that rhetoric is as disappointing as it is inaccurate.” Downton went on to say these athletes generate “billions of dollars” for colleges and others, and says they ask only “to receive the same eligibility as every athlete they competed against.” Really great article up
on Sportico.

[Michael McCann @McCannSportsLaw]

It took more than 4 years for a judge to certify the classes in O'Bannon v. NCAA. It over a year for that to happen in Alston and House.

Last night we saw a judge do it in less than 3 weeks!

The NCAA will have some good arguments for the appeal, IMO. https://t.co/5WyI9C0hne

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

@EddyFurniss Yes. We have been saying this for months.

[The Texas Trial Group @TexasTrialGroup]

@JessPreusser Educate yourself Jess, that is exactly what has happened in some cases. We just love all the never a Division 1 athlete folks that have opinions on this - Newsflash being a Division 1 athlete while studying college level is in fact A REAL JOB - harder than most jobs people do.

@JessPreusser @CharlieBakerMA Billable hours hmmm… Not on these cases… We work for the athletes… You probably mean the NCAA attorneys - they bill hourly and they are… raking.
