Fifth-year NCAA basketball players ruled ineligible again on appeal

Original: Fifth-year NCAA basketball players ineligible again following appeals court ruling

A federal appeals court has overturned lower-court relief that had allowed fifth-year NCAA basketball players to compete, ruling them ineligible once more. The decision immediately affects athletes who had gained an extra season of eligibility, and it renews debate over the NCAA's eligibility rules and athletes' ability to challenge them in court.

Why now: An appellate ruling has just stripped hundreds of fifth-year players of eligibility, upending rosters and prompting fresh legal and fan debate.
