The NCAA denied Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss a sixth year of eligibility due to his previous respiratory issues, despite his standout season leading the team to the College Football Playoff semifinals.

Michigan basketball's Joey Baker, a grad transfer from Duke, is seeking a sixth year of eligibility through a waiver after playing in just four games during his freshman season due to a redshirt. Baker has played in 33 games for Michigan this season, shooting 40.2% on 3s and averaging 5.6 points in 16 minutes per game. He confirmed that Michigan is the only place he would play if granted the waiver. Meanwhile, Jaelin Llewellyn, another transfer to Michigan, is still recovering from an ACL injury and his return is uncertain.
