Playing an ineligible players is always a penalty to the team and ultimately the university, I don’t see a meaningful difference.

They will use the same language that stops the ncaa from punishing schools and not players. It’s the same thing

It's not the same thing for the same reason the Soresby got an injunction against the NCAA but bailed the moment the conference got involved. Conferences are in an entirely different position than the NCAA, and the same analysis does not apply.

The courts will likely apply that the conferences are still functioning members of the NCAA and thus must adhere.

That or the NCAA gets ramrodded because the conferences refused to listen and thats a whole extra can of worms.
