If the injunction fails, then Ole Miss should have to forfeit any games Chambliss participation during the time he delays the hearing. Would definitely prevent schools from continuing to do this

I think the UConn AD mentioned this for basketball. It should be done in the Chambliss case if the MS Court allows him to play.

That’s an excellent summary, although I’m slightly more optimistic than you are about the NCAA reversing course on appeal this week. Also, I don’t think it matters whether the case is removed to federal court; the Complaint and attached exhibits make a pretty compelling case that the NCAA botched this one, regardless of where the case is heard.

Possibly, but the NCAA has also won 28 of the last 38 federal cases seeking injunctions, one of which was just 2 weeks ago.

Yeah but a lot of those cases are Sherman Act or other federal law cases. The one two weeks ago was literally not much more than saying “we want extra years.” Chambliss suit is very different.

Yea, it's we want an extra year because 3 years ago I had a sore throat and covid complications but don't have any medical documentation from the school but I have a note from my mother.

It absolutely matters if it gets removed to federal court. The case would leave the jurisdiction of a judge, the sole trier of fact, who holds a post-grad degree from a highly interested non-party to the litigation and an undergrad degree (during which he was a football player) from a university where the current head coach of this highly-interested non-party graduated.
The case would then be re-allotted to one of 2 judges in the subsection of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Mississippi. Both have ties to this highly interested parties, but neither of them are elected officials like the current presiding judge in Lafayette County Chancery Court, and thus are far less swayed by significant outside factors like those involved in this suit.
That said, since Chambliss astutely avoided raising any allegations under Sherman Act / federal antitrust laws, and since NCAA is still unincorporated (and thus not considered a citizen of a state other than Mississippi for purposes of federal court diversity jurisdiction), removal appears unlikely.

The initial pleading in basically every lawsuit - especially speaking complaints drafted by attorneys who are purposely trying to capture the attention of the media / outside forces like Chambliss’ attorneys - are usually quite persuasive. That’s because you’re only reading one side of the story. Luckily that’s not the standard.
Even still, this isn’t a case of the NCAA “botching” anything. If anything, Chambliss botched his case back in 2022 when he didn’t follow up with doctors and document the foundation of his medial waiver, that was only first made 3 years later.

The complaint was full of shite and re-writing what happened.
The kid wasn't good enough in 2022 to play, and now is trying to claim his sore throats kept him from playing. His coaches at Ferris State are denying that, but hey, they need to lie to help this kid get paid.
The hilarity of Ole Miss playing this game says a lot about where they stand as a program.
Again, the complaint is a fairy tale trying to spin a narrative, and is not rooted in facts.
I had chronic tonsillitis in college, and in no way shape or form did it prevent me from doing things in between bouts. It hurt like an MFer, but I survived and it was bad cases, not some tickle in my throat.
