Question
Astronomer Edwin Hubble (of telescope fame) played football in college. If a student does not play in any NCAA sports as an undergrad can he or she play as a grad student while going for a higher degree?

Answer
Eric, hello!

I have attached the Eligibility Rules of the NCAA.  If your 5 year clock has expired, you then have no time left.  You will have to get the NCAA Official opinion on when your standard five years began.  

Take Care,
