COFFEY, Circuit Judge.

Braxston Lee Banks appeals the district court’s dismissal of his claim that the National Collegiate Athletic Association (“NCAA”) rules withdrawing athletes’ eligibility to participate in collegiate sports in the event the athlete chooses to enter a professional draft or engages an agent to help him secure a position with a professional team are an illegal restraint on trade or commerce in violation of 15 U.S.C. § 1. We affirm the judgment of the district *1083court holding that Banks failed to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.
