Zakai Zeigler files lawsuit seeking fifth year of eligibility

Tennessee Basketball's Zakai Zeigler is filing a lawsuit seeking a fifth year of eligibility to extend his college career.
www.on3.com www.on3.com

Zakai Zeigler has filed a lawsuit seeking a fifth-year of eligibility for the 2025-26 season. The lawsuit, according to a press release, alleges the NCAA’s rule permitting four seasons of eligibility within a five-year eligibly window is an unlawful restraint of trade under federal and state antirust laws.”

Zeigler, who was not invited to the NBA Draft Combine or the NBA’s G League Elite Camp earlier this month, starred at Tennessee over the last four seasons, quickly becoming the face of the program after being added late to the 2021 recruiting class as a relatively unknown three-star prospect.


So basically these guys are now wanting unlimited eligibility along with the transfer portal and NIL. This guy played for 4 years without an injury and wants a 5th because the gravy train on NIL is over and he is going to have to find a job.

He graduated last week in retail and merchandising management.

His grades aren’t made public but even if he had a 4.0 let’s be real the guy is looking at best for entry management position somewhere like JC Penny and this is a guy that has become accustomed to making 1mm plus in NIL.

He needs to bite the bullet and look for overseas basketball spots. The NBA and even the G League have said no so if he wants to play basketball that is his avenue.

College basketball or any college sport doesn’t need to become a career where we 30 year olds filling spots on teams.

You need to have some majors that athletes and girls just wanting a MRS can enroll in.

Hell, I worked at Publix for 6 months in high school and I think I could have ran that place then
