NCAA grants waiver to athletes in Pavia's position

The NCAA Division I Board of Directors approved a blanket waiver granting an extra year of eligibility to former junior college transfers in similar positions to Vanderbilt's Diego Pavia, while also announcing it is appealing the ruling in Pavia's case.

Is this applying to baseball as well? There has always been a ton of JC baseball movement. Will this change baseball recruiting, especially the recruitment of Freshmen?

It should based on the article's use of athletes. We've come a long way from the NCAA dinging Tommy Giles' last year of eligibility over a year of flight school.

It's probably not as impactful as it would have been a few years ago with the portal diminishing JUCO's importance, but might be a nice option knowing you wouldn't lose eligibility assuming the change becomes permanent.

Yes, this will 100% change the ways HS kids are recruited, Mid majors and lower levels will likely not recruit HS kids anymore imo. I think it will benefit us for sure since the some of the best Juco's are in the state of Florida
