College sports are in legal chaos as 2022 athletes fight for a fifth year of eligibility, with Syracuse and others holding their breath over a federal injunction that could let players like Amarri Monroe and Justus Ross-Simmons compete.

The NCAA’s own eligibility rules didn’t automatically grant extra years, fueling lawsuits and the Colorado judge’s injunction.
