Former Arizona State guard Maurice Odum plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal, according to a report. This decision follows a recent court ruling impacting athlete eligibility.
On3’s Joe Tipton reports that Maurice Odum intends to utilize the transfer portal for collegiate basketball. The timing of this announcement comes after Judge Charlotte Sweeney of the U.S. District Court of Colorado granted a class-wide preliminary injunction.
The injunction requires the NCAA to declare eligible all high school players from the class of 2022 who had previously been deemed ineligible due to name, image and likeness (NIL) rules. This ruling effectively opens opportunities for athletes who were impacted by those regulations to pursue transfers with immediate eligibility.
Odum’s decision to return for one more season of collegiate basketball is directly linked to the court's action. The preliminary injunction provides a pathway for him, and other affected players, to continue their athletic careers without facing traditional NCAA transfer restrictions.
