Cleveland Browns: Lawsuit presents another potential bump in draft plans
Key Points:
- The NCAA determined that Ole Miss failed to provide sufficient documentation proving that Chambliss had an injury or illness preventing him from playing at Ferris State during the 2022-23 football season.
- Chambliss’ lawyer, Tom Mars, argued that a different NCAA bylaw should apply to Chambliss’ case than the one the NCAA used in its decision.
- The legal filing criticized the NCAA’s ruling as “bad-faith, unreasonable, and arbitrary,” highlighting a prolonged history of medical issues affecting Chambliss.
- The complaint detailed a series of medical illnesses over approximately seven years, culminating in Chambliss undergoing tonsil removal surgery in 2024.
