Louisville guard Seth Trimble is now currently eligible to play in the 2026-27 season. 

As first reported by On3’s Joe Tipton on Wednesday Morning: A Jefferson Circuit Court judge granted the motion to include Trimble to the Wells v NCAA lawsuit and the already existing temporary restraining order (TRO) against the NCAA.

This move makes Trimble eligible now, but there will be more hoops to jump through. This case is going to continue through the appellate process and could be stayed as has happened in Ohio or Tennessee before a final ruling is made. 

Previously, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals granted the NCAA a stay of the Colorado ruling that gave Class of 2022 athletes who exhausted four seasons of eligibility, an extra fifth year. This forced Trimble to seek action at the state level, and now is cleared to play after receiving this TRO.

Trimble played all four years at UNC. He averaged 14 points and 3 assists per game in his senior season, shooting 47% from the field. He also recorded a career high, scoring 30 points against the Cardinals last year. Over the course of his time in Chapel Hill, he saw his playing time and points per game increase each year. Trimble has recorded 971 career points and reached double figures 50 times over his career, notching four 20-point games last year.
