A Dallas County judge issued a temporary restraining order, preventing the NCAA, SEC, and Commissioner Greg Sankey from blocking 41 athletes from returning to college sports for the 2026-27 season. The ruling comes amidst a legal battle over the NCAA's new five-year eligibility rule and conferences' attempts to prevent former professional athletes from returning to college competition. The order also requires the NCAA to reopen the transfer portal for one week.
