The Colorado NCAA eligibility case continues to move forward, with a recent update from the court.

The court has denied the NCAA’s request to stay the preliminary injunction, meaning the injunction will remain in place while the appeal is pending.

As a result, the affected student-athletes will retain eligibility for an additional season as the litigation continues.
