Former Florida State basketball star Alex Steen is suing the NCAA to play a fifth college season in 2026-27, arguing the league’s “five-in-five” rule unfairly blocks players who graduated high school in 2022—like him—without sitting out a full year. With a federal judge already granting emergency relief to his class, Steen seeks similar measures to stop the NCAA from enforcing current rules that would bar him. Despite injuries and a transfer from Division II, Steen was a key starter for FSU last season. His legal team contends the NCAA’s push for congressional legislation to allow fifth seasons contradicts its current stance, and warns that missing this window could cost him roster spots, scholarships, and NIL opportunities forever.
