Episode Details

RJ Godfrey, a former Clemson basketball star, is suing the NCAA to get a fifth year of eligibility under the new “5 for 5” rule — even though his eligibility already expired. One of 16 Class of 2022 players filing the lawsuit in Georgia, Godfrey played three years at Clemson and one at Georgia without redshirting and believes he deserves retroactive benefits. If successful, he’s eyeing SEC schools like Oklahoma, Arkansas, or LSU — not Clemson, which is full and can’t afford him. A win could set a precedent for other athletes, with lawyers seeking a court injunction to allow him to play in 2026-27.
