Indiana safety Louis Moore<\/a><\/strong> will be on the field when the Hoosiers open their season against Old Dominion and again in Week 2 against Kennesaw State. <\/p>\n

But the question of whether he\u2019ll be there come Indiana\u2019s Week 3 contest against Indiana State and beyond remains unsettled.<\/p>\n

A Dallas County judge extended a temporary restraining order on Wednesday, giving Moore at least two games of breathing room in his fight with the NCAA over a denied waiver for an extra year of eligibility. Judge Dale Tillery granted a 14-day extension after a 90-minute hearing that steered clear of the central issue at hand \u2014 whether Moore should be cleared to play the entire 2025 season.<\/p>\n

Instead, the legal battle turned procedural. Tillery ordered the NCAA to hand over contracts signed in Texas over the past 18 months, part of a discovery process Moore\u2019s attorneys hope will undermine the NCAA\u2019s claim that the Dallas court has no jurisdiction. A follow-up hearing is set for Sept. 10 at 9 a.m.<\/p>\n

For Moore, who transferred to Indiana from Ole Miss after beginning his career at Navarro College, the stakes are high. <\/p>\n

His lawsuit argues the NCAA\u2019s rejection not only sidesteps its own December 2024 blanket waiver \u2014 which granted an extra year to athletes who competed at non-NCAA schools \u2014 but also jeopardizes a $400,000 name, image and likeness deal. Court filings describe the opportunity as \u201conce in a lifetime,\u201d both financially and as a chance to showcase his game at a Power Four program.<\/p>\n

Moore\u2019s first waiver was denied in June, and his appeal, according to his attorney, was not officially rejected until Aug. 22. That lag helped prompt the legal challenge, which has now placed the NCAA under closer scrutiny.<\/p>\n

For now, Indiana knows it will have Moore in uniform against both ODU and Kennesaw State. Beyond that, his season \u2014 and his future in college football \u2014 hangs on what happens in a Dallas courtroom two weeks from now.<\/p>\n
