SUMMARY: Southern Miss basketball player John Wade III has been granted immediate eligibility following a confidential settlement with the NCAA. Transferring from Stanislaus State for the 2024-25 season, Wade faced ineligibility for the first 18 games. After a federal judge dismissed a restraining order against the NCAA, new information led to an approval for an eligibility waiver based on extraordinary hardship during the 2022-23 academic year. Wade had previously received a medical redshirt at Cal State Northridge but was retroactively granted a mental hardship waiver. He is set to play for the Golden Eagles, who have struggled with an 8-10 record.

Despite rumored interest from potential buyers, including former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, ByteDance has indicated it won’t sell. President Biden’s administration has hinted at not enforcing the law initially.
