Heinecke Files Injunction for Extra College Season

Oklahoma linebacker Owen Heinecke has filed an injunction against the NCAA, seeking one more year of eligibility after they rejected his appeal. He recently participated in the NFL Scouting Combine and Oklahomas Pro Day, but is projected as a day two or three pick in the upcoming draft. Heinecke, a unique player with a background in lacrosse, had a breakout year in 2025, racking up 74 tackles and key plays. Oklahomas athletic director Roger Denny supports Heineckes push for another season, which would boost the Sooners linebacker group. Heinecke hopes for a quick ruling from Judge Thad Balkman, as the NFL Draft is set to begin on April 23rd. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
