After initially being ruled ineligible, a Texas A&M men's basketball commit has been granted a temporary restraining order against the NCAA, granting him eligibility for the 2026-27 season.
Senior guard Bryson Warren, who committed to the Aggies in late April, was given a TRO in Brazos County after suing the NCAA to regain eligibility and suit up in the Maroon and White this year. Warren has spent the last three seasons in the NBA G League. The TRO makes Warren immediately eligible to play and participate in team activities with Texas A&M, as they enter the second campaign under head coach Bucky McMillan.
This comes just a day removed from the Big Ten and SEC announcing a ban on professional athletes who have been through the draft process or
signed professional contracts. While it remains undetermined whether this will include those who have gained TROs against the NCAA, Warren could still be impacted under this new ruling.

Warren is one of various athletes who have taken the NCAA to court to regain collegiate eligibility. He isn't the first and most definitely won't be the last to win their injunction, too. A plethora of athletes from the 2022-23 academic year are battling to rejoin the college ranks after a Colorado judge ruled that those from the class would be granted an extra season of eligibility, which caused mass chaos across all sports, including college basketball.
According to KBTX sports reporter Travis Brown, an additional hearing regarding Warren's TRO against the NCAA will happen on Friday, Sept. 4. Warren averaged 19.9 points, 5.0 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 21 games.
