Big Ten, SEC Face Contempt Motion Over NFL Player Ban

The Big Ten and SEC's decision to ban players with NFL contracts from returning to college football faces legal challenges, with attorney Ryan Downton planning to request a contempt ruling against the NCAA. The action comes after a court injunction allowed former Browns tight end Dae'Quan Wright to join LSU. moryak.biz

Downton accused the conferences of "cartel-like coordination with the NCAA" and stated they are considering legal action to hold the Big Ten and SEC accountable. The ban may be part of a larger strategy to build political support for the Protect College Sports Act.
