Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia Granted Temporary Injunction, Eligible for 2025 Season with $1 Million NIL Earnings

Dec 18, 2024, 10:38 PM

A judge has granted Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia a temporary injunction allowing him to play in the 2025 college football season. Pavia is challenging NCAA rules regarding eligibility, specifically arguing that his two years spent at a junior college should not count against his eligibility. This ruling is significant as it may set a precedent for other players in similar situations. The NCAA cannot penalize Pavia or Vanderbilt if he participates in the 2025 season and the lawsuit ultimately fails. Pavia claims he stands to earn at least $1 million in Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) revenue during the 2025-26 academic year, coinciding with the start of revenue-sharing related to a House settlement.
