Arizona Wildcats forward RJ Godfrey has filed a lawsuit against the Arizona Board of Regents in his latest effort to gain eligibility for the upcoming season, according to a report by SB Nation's Brian Pedersen.

The legal action comes after Godfrey, who wears number 0 for the Wildcats, appeared in a preseason game against the San Diego State Aztecs at McKale Center at ALKEME Arena in Tucson on October 16, 2026. Details of the eligibility dispute and the specific grounds for the lawsuit were not immediately disclosed.

Godfrey's case represents the latest development in ongoing debates over player eligibility in college athletics. The Arizona Board of Regents, which governs the state's public universities, has not yet issued a public response to the filing.
