Baylor defensive lineman Hosea Wheeler gained temporary eligibility for the 2026 season Tuesday after a McLennan County judge granted his request for an injunction against the NCAA. The ruling from 414th State District Judge Ryan Luna clears Wheeler to participate with the Bears while his lawsuit challenging the NCAA's eligibility determination moves forward. If the injunction is overturned, Wheeler could lose his eligibility before Baylor completes its regular-season schedule.
