Clutch engagement issue

[KCRN12]

I've got a 98 gt with a 97 cobra engine and trans. Yesterday on my way home from the gym I noticed the pedal acting weird. It feels like there's slack in it when I let it out. Instead of it staying on my foot, I can pull my foot off of it some and the pedal slowly comes back up. I thought maybe the spring on the quadrant was bad, but it looks fine. I took off the inspection cover and the clutch and releas bearing look ok, too. It feels normal when pushing the pedal in (disengaging the clutch) but, like I said, when letting the pedal out it come back up slow and doesn't feel right. Any ideas?

How is it when you disconnect the cable from the arm and push the pedal in?

It's the cable. I took it off at both ends and I can't move. Something is creating resistance inside the sheath.

When you put the cable on did you pull your pedal back towards your driver seat i made that mistake once made it feel weird as hell.

Yes I did. I ordered a new cable today. It's supposed to come in tomorrow. The one on it now is seized up.
