QB Ben Mauk Files Lawsuit For Eligibilty Against NCAA - The Postgame Pub

Quarterback Ben Mauk is not giving up his quest to play one more season at the University of Cincinnati. Less than a week after the NCAA rejected his final appeal, Mauk has filed a lawsuit against the association. Hardin County Judge William Hart in Mauk's home area of Kenton, Ohio, has granted a temporary restraining order that says the NCAA cannot prevent him from practicing with the Bearcats. The judge set an Aug. 22 hearing on Mauk's request for a permanent injunction. The story was first reported by WKTN-FM in Kenton. Mauk was a key player as Cincinnati rose to college football's Top 25 last season. He wants another season of eligibility, saying he lost college playing time because of injury while at Wake Forest.

how many people need to do this to the NCAA to realize that they will never win....the NCAA has more money and better lawyers than the people who play for the NCAA....he should get anything....that like saying i played my freshman year and got hurt, then went to school for 3 more years, not playing football, then i DIDNT graduate on purpose so i could play college football untill i am 27.....if you get hurt you get hurt..its part of the game...

Unfortunately, you're right. He won't win, and that's a shame. I'm a Ben Mauk fan, due to seeing him quite often due to my friend from Cinci being a big fan. If he isn't allowed to get back in the NCAA, then hopefully he stays in shape and tried to make it to the NFL next year. CFL and AFL are always options as well.
