💨 Abstract

College basketball star Zakai Zeigler is suing the NCAA, seeking to play a fifth season while pursuing graduate studies. The NCAA’s rule, which allows four seasons in a five-year window, is challenged as a restraint of trade. Zeigler, who finished his undergraduate degree in four years, argues he's missing out on lucrative Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) earnings. The NCAA advocates for national standards to stabilize athlete benefits.
