Edinboro - third in 2015

I believe so. Ackerman went to Simpson.

Based on this year I think it is Lehigh and Penn in a tie, followed by Pittsburgh and Lock Haven. Based on the last 6 years (33 seeds), Penn drops a couple slots:

The non-Power 5 schools will also be monitored by the same body as the P5. No, if you pay a single athlete then you are effectively an opt in. It is an annual decision, though. So a team that opts in one year can opt out the next.

Today is the next hearing in the proposed House Settlement. If approved: Damages - the settlement allows for $2.8 billion in damages to be paid to former athletes from 2016 to present. 95% of that will go to football, men's basketball, and women's basketball. Only 5% is earmarked for Olympic and non-revenue sports. This is funded by the NCAA insurance and withholding revenue from the men's basketball tournament. Effectively the Power 5 will pay 40% and other conferences will pay 60%. There may be some legal action over that split. Direct payments to athletes - initially capped at $20.5 million, there is no minimum. To pay athletes schools must opt in to the settlement. Power 5 schools are required to opt in, everyone else is optional. Roster limits - will replace scholarship limits for schools opting in. For wrestling the limit is 30. If subject to a roster limit, schools can give out as many scholarships as they choose/can fund. NIL - national guidelines will be put in place mandating reporting to a clearinghouse and approval of any deals greater than $600 to ensure they reflect fair market value. Enforcement - the Power 5 schools will create an enforcement mechanism, meaning it will no longer be up to the NCAA. The NCAA will only be in charge of eligibility rules, playing and administrative rules, and running championships. Deloitte has been contracted to make fair value assessments of proposed deals.

Ackman's new statements on tariffs: "I have a lot of respect for our president and what he has accomplished so far, but I don’t think he is infallible, which is why I am stating loud and clear that I strongly believe launching tariffs on April 9th against the entire world — massively in excess of what we are being charged — is a mistake."

Let's set the record straight. Skutt Catholic poached him from grade school before Iowa poached him from Skutt before Penn State poached him from Iowa before Oklahoma State poached him from Penn State before Penn State poached him from Oklahoma State. Oh, and his wife poached him from his mother.

The only way to do that is to make athletes employees, and the universities have faught tooth and nail against that.

Are you Anthony or Gable? Either way, we are honored to have you.

How about one I don't know the answer to. Now that Jaggers' mailbag has come to a close, where are you going to go to to whine like a baby when you inevitably get banned again?

What was your username when you formed this opinion of GWN?

Opting out means you operate by existing rules. Scholarship limit instead of roster limit. No payments from school to athlete.

Between this and the morphine snipes I cannot believe you are making fun of his family member going into hospice. You are despicable.

Opting in, or not, does not affect championship eligibility. https://www.knightcommission.org/wp-content/uploads/KnightCommissionBrief_HousevNCAA_182025.pdf From page 2: NCAA bylaws governing DI membership and access to DI championships are not impacted by the House settlement.

I don't understand the question.

The settlement is up for approval Monday, so no one so far, technically, but as BigRed indicates, only the Ivies have announced their intention. The power 5 (Big Ten, ACC, Big 12, SEC, and Pac12) are required to opt in.

Smaller schools can opt in and make direct payments to athletes of any size as there is no minimum, only a cap, on those payments. That would also allow them to offer more scholarships. But it would come at the cost of roster caps. All three of those things cost money as the roster cap has the potential to cost the school tuition revenue. So if you are a school without a money making football or basketball program that you need to support in order to compete, it probably doesn't make sense to opt in.

Retherford has started coaching. He was hired as an assistant at NLWC after he announced his retirement. This was just after Nick Lee got the PSU assistant position.

That guy was searching for the gullible. That is why today he posted a graph from Wednesday, that ends before a 10% drop in two days. I don't have to search for negativity when Trump is thruating it in our faces.

That graph is from Wednesday. Take another 10% off.

It could be very good for the small programs as they pull in some big program exhaust. In theory.

The smaller programs are unlikely to be subject to roster limits under the current settlement. Roster limits only apply to schools who are also opting into revenue sharing. For P5 conferences it is mandatory. For everyone else, they have the option to share revenue AND have roster limits, or neither.
