Only problem is there will be no or very little revenue from tv or whatever the new ncaa would be. P5 is responsible for the majority of the liability but also the revenue. The advantage (or disadvantage) would be personal preference but not financial. The NCAA does not currently market the MWC’s m...

How is bankrupting the ncaa better financially for the 300? It’s a fresh start. The 300 can form or become part of their own associations and create their own tournaments. The split will happen regardless. This is just a way to speed up that process and get back to relatively amateur athletics. Onl...

Fundamental bankruptcy law. 11 USC 547. A bankruptcy court can claw back NCAA distributions to conferences for a period of 1 year prior to the filing of the case. The 60% you are upset about is coming from reduced payments from the ncaa to the schools which is somewhere between 1 and what 30% of th...

Perhaps but they helped create the platform and situation which created the value in NIL. Lukely similar arguments as suing manufacturers even though individuals used product in unlawful or dangerous manner. The only reason it surprises me is because I hold that low of opinion of lawyers. What does...

I'm surprised they didn't name espn, fox, etc. Why aren't they paying? That’s about as easy as a question as it gets. The players have no claims against those parties. There are no allegations that ESPN colluded with the NCAA to craft rules that prevented the players from receiving endorsement doll...

Removing the scholarship limit may eliminate any competitive advantage between fcs and g5 depending on how schools choose to focus their efforts and resources.

Who said I'm taking sides? Maybe they can supeona current nil collectives and base %s off of that? I'm surprised they didn't name espn, fox, etc. Why aren't they paying? All I'm saying is 68 schools are paying 40% of 60% and 300 schools are paying 60% of 60%. I'm not sure how you divvy up a liabili...

Can all non-p5 d1 schools say we won't pay anything and the ncaa is simply bankrupt with no further implications to non-p5 schools (since they weren't specifically named in lawsuit other than ncaa)? I have no idea. Fundamental bankruptcy law. 11 USC 547. A bankruptcy court can claw back NCAA distri...

Likely, but nobody knows how big those differences will be especially with title ix considerations. It doesn’t take much of an expert to recognize that the differences are much larger than the 40/60 the P4 is trying to force down the throat of the little guy. Do you believe it is a coincidence that...

It's 14,000 athletes since 2016. What percentage are p5 vs g5 and is the payment structure different depending on the athlete's sport or conference he/she participated in? Yes - I can almost guarantee the plaintiff class members will require a structure based on conference affiliation and sport. No...

Not all the 300 schools you reference are even Division 1. Compared to most of them Wyoming is a big time athletic programs. Do you think someone like Farmingdale State or Wisconsin- Lutheran or even Chadron State will be able to pay that kind of money? Any way I look at it it is bad deal for schoo...

Basically the only Wyoming player who might be entitled to real money in damages for lost NIL revenues is Josh Allen. No one else-Hill, Wilson, Muma etc, would get much in the way of damages. Compare that to someone like Joe Burrow, Zion Williamson, Trevor Lawrence, Baker Mayfield etc. from P4 conf...

Are you suggesting that only players who played at a p5 school be eligible to recieve past damages or that those athletes recieve more than those that played at g5? I don't think the settlement differentiated. 300 schools have way more past athletes than 68 schools. I am suggesting that P5 players ...

"The proposed settlement is for $2.7 billion in damages from 2016-present but the P5 to only cover 40% of that amount" That is exactly the point. The money is to repay past damages to players who were not able to receive NIL income. Currently P4 schools are paying significantly more for N...

For the lawsuit, we paid more as a percentage but waaay less total dollars than p4. Huh? I’m not following what you’re saying. The proposed settlement is for $2.7 billion in damages from 2016-present but the P5 to only cover 40% of that amount. It equates to more liability per school in the P5 but ...

It is a terrible deal for the non-P4 conferences. They get hit with 60% of the damages even though realistically the vast majority of the damages are owed to players for the P4 conferences I am less than informed on how TV money gets currently split but I assume the vast majority of the TV/media re...

So if I’m understanding your post, the P5 get revenue sharing of $20 million each school and the G5s FCS shoulder the burden? The damage claims in the lawsuits generally seek antitrust damages for the years of 2016-present asserting that the NCAA’s and conferences’ conduct restricted the players ma...

Whoa. Revenue sharing and unlimited scholarships!?

I'm no Burman defender, lol, but this might simply be the least bad option he was facing. When a divorce is imminent, moving on as quickly as possible is best. It's possible Tech didn't want Linder bad enough to spend any more. If Burman stands his ground, Linder is a bad and now jaded coach roamin...
