"The NCAA Division I Board of Directors, composed of university presidents, agreed to a waiver for junior college players that grants them an additional year of eligibility if they are in a similar situation as Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia.
Pavia is suing the NCAA over its eligibility standards, arguing that his junior college playing seasons should not count as part of his four seasons of NCAA eligibility. The NCAA DI Board’s decision came five days after a Tennessee federal court granted Pavia an injunction that prohibits the association from counting his junior college seasons, granting him an additional year of eligibility."

There is also movement from college leaders to adjust the eligibility rule in a way that grants athletes five playing seasons in a five-year time span.
