Here's some more from the Yale paper and the Philly Inquirer which touches on the plaintiff's legal arguments. These articles make clear this sprang from Alston, and the plaintiff's lawyers have been planning this since.

There is also a Law360 article and Bloomberg article which I expect may have some more of the legal background, but require subscriptions.
Seems like a big leap from Alston to this. If they had scholarship opportunities outside of Brown, they could have just gone elsewhere. So the harm the plaintiffs have suffered is they can't go to both an elite school, and also get compensated, seems like a stretch to me.
