A federal judge from Tennessy dismissed the request of Tennessy Guard Zakai Zigler on Thursday for the preliminary prohibition, when he sued the NCAA for the fifth year of eligibility last month.
Prohibition, all -time assistance of volunteers and stealing the leader, could take Ziglar to court, while their case came up in court.
Ziglar filed a suit on the NCAA for the fifth year, claiming that he is not allowed to play in 2025–26, if he could lose up to $ 4 million in Nil’s money. The trial argued that he would face irreparable damage without immediate relief, with the finalization of the roster to schools and disposal of zero deals.
Judge Catherine Critzer wrote in his judgment, “The plaintiff has failed to present enough evidence that the rules of four-sons have created adequate anticompatural effects in the market for NIL compensation in student-athlete services and divisions I basketball.”
Ziglar filed his suit in the eastern district of Tennessee. In this, he claimed that he could make a name, image and equality between $ 2 million and $ 4 million in 2025-26 after making $ 500,000 in 2024–25.
“We are disappointed that the court refused to give an initial prohibition on the basis that the NCAA does not control zero compensation directly, a few days after the disposal of the house. They confirm that they will do so,” Litson PLLC and Representation of the Garza Law firm, Ziglar said in a statement. “This ruling is just the first chapter that we believe will eventually be a successful challenge.”
Ziglar, who led the volunteers for two aristocratic eight appearances, set the school’s career record for assisting (747) and theft (251). There were 11.3 points in the three-time all-SEC pick and two-time League Defense Player of the Year, 5.4 aid and 2.6 rebound average in 138 career games (83 starts).
He graduated from Tennessi this month and planned to get a bachelor’s degree.
