Abstract
In a not-so-surprising turn of events due to recent federal court decisions, Chief U.S. District Judge William L. Campbell, Jr., granted Vanderbilt University quarterback Diego Pavia's preliminary injunction that he filed against the NCAA in November. Pavia's request to the U.S. District Court, Middle District of Tennessee at Nashville challenged the legality of NCAA Bylaws 12.8, 12.02.6, and 14.3.3 (JUCO Eligibility Limitation Bylaws). He claimed these rules violate Section 1 of the Sherman Act by reducing the number of years that former junior college players can participate in Division I football, while at the same time shortening the period of time in which they can monetize their name, image, and likeness (see Pl. Complaint, Pavia v. Nat’l Collegiate Athletic Ass’n, No. 3:24-cv-01336 (M.D. TN Nov. 8, 2024)).
由于最近联邦法院的判决,美国首席地区法官威廉·l·坎贝尔(William L. Campbell, Jr.)批准了范德比尔特大学四分卫迭戈·帕维亚(Diego Pavia)在11月对NCAA提出的初步禁令,这并不令人意外。帕维亚向纳什维尔的美国田纳西州中部地区法院提出请求,质疑NCAA章程12.8、12.02.6和14.3.3 (JUCO资格限制章程)的合法性。他声称这些规则违反了谢尔曼法案的第一节,减少了前初级大学球员参加一级联赛的年数,同时缩短了他们可以将自己的名字、形象和形象货币化的时间(见Pl. Complaint, Pavia v. Nat 'l Collegiate Athletic Ass, No. 3:24- cv01336 (M.D. TN 11月8日,2024))。
