After an offseason full of challenges to the NCAA's classic four-year eligibility model, the organization notched a major legal victory on Wednesday.

Wisconsin cornerback Nyzier Fourqurean's status for this season is now unclear after a federal appeals court overturned a preliminary injunction that granted him another year of NCAA eligibility.

The U.S. Seventh Circuit court of appeals sided with the NCAA and denied Nyzier Fourqurean the chance to compete for the Badgers this season.
