Because this is a ground breaking decision that will have implications for future international players. This isn't a simple eligibility issue.

EXACTLY - and would you think ground-breaking decisions take time? You actually answered the question better than I did. NCAA is not going to shut itself down just because of this, but if they are going to make a groundbreaking decision, then they MUST identify ALL facts. If they screw this up, it has an impact forever for any other international students. In order to build a case study, you must have a case. Thus, the time it takes to take something to trial is not a week or a month, and sometimes not even a year!
