Personally, I don't blame him in the least. Try everything you can to get another season. That one season will likely produce more money than he'll ever see again as an annual salary. Of course, I'd also be looking at the want ads.

Wow, there's a blast from the past.
I think the Sunday print edition of LHL is $7 .
 
His lawyer is the only winner in this one. If I were him I'd pull the plug and hold onto what I could.

Tennessee is probably paying his lawyers or they are pro bono. I doubt seriously if he is paying for this himself. He was probably approached by lawyers and is just the face of the lawsuit.
If successful, it opens the door to sue the NCAA on behalf of all the athletes that were denied playing past 4 years. That’s where the payday is.

Can’t see the university doing that at all. And if it was him and a couple of other people I could see it being pro bono but as it stands and as much of a long shot as it’s been considered to have been I’d bet it’s out of his own pocket. Definitely could see how it would make a firm a ton of cash so maybe they discounted it but I’ve yet to meet a lawyer that works for free.

Am I wrong in assuming if Zeigler won this it would set a crazy precedent? I mean why would every college player not be able to do the same after this? Seems like it would open some crazy floodgates. There's nothing special about Ziegler that the rules everyone else has shouldn't apply to him.

Give it up dude, this looks bad on him, simply go home to New York and get a job, He had a good career, now it's time to get a real job, I'm not even sure he can go overseas and play. Evidently going out into the real world has him scared to death.

My thoughts exactly.
