🏅Taking down Alabama wasn't enough for Diego Pavia

Hey there,

Vanderbilt’s Diego Pavia — you know, the hero who took down ‘Bama earlier this year — has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA. In it, he’s arguing that their eligibility rules are unfair, suppressing his ability to make NIL money.

It’s an interesting case, and one with cascading effects. In today’s All-Access Edition we’re going through the lawsuit itself, as well as what could happen whether or not it’s successful.

The NCAA’s frustrating year of litigation just became even more frustrating. A new lawsuit, brought forward by Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia, is adding yet another expensive item to the NCAA’s growing pile of legal complaints.

But this is a really important lawsuit. At first glance, it might seem like just a quarterback fighting for one more season of eligibility… but when we look a bit closer, this case has the potential to completely shake up how the NCAA operates, how athletes are compensated, and what the future of college sports could look like.

Before we dive into the bigger picture, let’s break down the details of Pavia’s case.
