The NCAA has not ruled on Ben Mauk’s request for a sixth year after all
In the latsst twist in the Mauk saga, Kevin Murphy, the attorney for Mauk who confirmed Monday night that the NCAA ruled against Mauk said this morning that no decision has been reached.
“The call that was made to me last night was a mistake,” Murphy said today.
UC compliance director Maggie McKinley confirmed this morning that the NCAA has yet to reach a decision.
Asked how a mistake like that could have been made, Murphy said only, “right now we’re still in the midst of this, so I need to focus on what we’re doing.
“I’m just concentrating on being positive and I’m grateful that they’re looking at this thing and we still have an excellent opportunity to get a positive ruling from the staff.”
