I have firsthand experience dealing with federal courts, although not in a sports capacity. The first and most important lesson I learned the process is lengthy and guessing the outcome is unwise. I have two cases awaiting to be heard for the past three years. Due to my age, I have accepted that I may not be alive to see the result. I'm hopeful my wife is still around to collect any benefits from my cases. And yes, Discovery is a bitch - one case was slightly more than 18 months in Discovery, and then the judge ruled against me on all points except one. Now the appeal is in the system, who knows when it will be heard. My attorney told me that courts are backlogged until November 2026.
It will be interesting to see how quickly the MC/Pac case is decided. I'm not hopeful it will be soon.
The play here for the pac and defectors is to draw this out as long as possible so the MWC can't make payments to UNLV and AF next July. Basically hoping to make the MWC fall apart so there is nobody left to owe the money to. If AF and UNLV aren't paid by July 1, I think the gor is null and void.
