Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia is eligible to play another season of college football in 2025 after being granted a temporary injunction, according to a court ruling released Wednesday.Pavia’s request for a temporary restraining order that would allow him to play a sixth season was denied by a federal judge last month. However, the Wednesday ruling by U.S. District Judge William Campbell of the Middle District of Tennessee grants Pavia a temporary injunction and that sixth year he has been seeking.Pavia played two years at New Mexico Military Institute before transferring to New Mexico State, but argued that the NCAA’s rules on junior college participation counting against eligibility violates antitrust law outlined by the Sherman Act.Pavia’s representation argued that, in addition to the COVID-season waiver afforded to athletes after playing in 2020, the quarterback’s NCAA clock should not have started during his junior college time. It also claimed that Pavia stands to earn more than $1 million in NIL compensation should he play in 2025.Pavia passed for 2,133 yards and added another 716 on the ground while accounting for 23 total touchdowns this season. His highlight was leading the Commodores to an upset win over then-No.1 Alabama on Oct. 5.While he is in line to potentially return as Vanderbilt’s quarterback next season, Pavia still likely will have to wait out a legal process over the next few months before it becomes official.
