RE: News Articles on Wiseman

That's a big deal. If they had never pronounced Wiseman eligible all sorts of other things would have happened this summer.
THIS is the point I’ve been hammering too! Wiseman has the NCAA dead to right on breaching good faith and fair deal
They promised to honor his eligibility and then jerked him around and ruled him ineligible. They can claim that they have a right to interpret their bylaws any way they see fit but that’s not going to fly in court when James relied on the good faith of the NCAA and then they reneged on it. He had sound options at his disposal in May and they thereafter acted in bad dealings with him
Yep People are incorrectly characterizing the case. If the NCAA would have ruled Wiseman not eligible initially we wouldn't be having this fight.
Secondly it is not Memphis who is suing...It is Wiseman.
Wiseman is not challenging NCAA rules he is challenging the fairness of changing the rules which ultimately will affect his earnings potential.
Much of this will hinge on whether it is seen a reasonable that deeming Hardaway a booster is legitimate. But I still say to notify us right before the first game is BS and done to be as hard to defend ourselves against as possible.
