Judge says USFL player rule illegal By United Press International LOS ANGELES — A federal judge yesterday ruled that the college eligibility rule of the United States Football League violated federal antitrust law, a potential landmark for employers under the structure of professional sports. Although the National Football League and Canadian Football League are not involved in the case. their rules are identical to the contested USFL policy against drafting a college player before his four years of eligibility have expired. U. S. District Judge Laughlin Waters released his ruling yesterday in the case of Bob Boris, a former punter with the University of Arizona. Boris was charged with assaulting an agent, which made him permanently incapable for college sports. Ignored by the CFL and frustrated when the USFLL signed college standout Herschel Walker and then made no more exceptions to its eligibility rule. Borsu sued the league and its Arizona Wranglers franchise. The Phoenix team had the option to select Boris in the January 1985 USF draft. He said the legality of the fledgling league's "territorial schools rule," which restricted teams from drawing players from certain areas at a trial. Also to be decided are what, if any, monetary damages Boris will receive.

It's blocking, tackling and not dropping the ball."
