NCAA Appeals Pavia Ruling, Grants 'Pavia Waiver' Extending Eligibility for Former JUCO Athletes
Dec 23, 2024, 09:57 PM
The NCAA Division I Board of Directors has granted a waiver, dubbed the 'Pavia Waiver,' allowing athletes who attended and competed at non-NCAA schools, such as junior colleges (JUCOs) and NAIA schools, for one or more years to remain eligible and compete in the 2025-26 academic year if they would have otherwise exhausted their eligibility in 2024-25. This decision comes in response to the recent Diego Pavia preliminary injunction order issued last week, in which the New Mexico State quarterback was granted an additional year of eligibility. While the NCAA is appealing the Pavia ruling, the waiver effectively extends the eligibility of hundreds of former JUCO athletes across various sports, including football and baseball.
