My dad, my daughter, and my money all went to Villanova, so I am very familiar. He went nowhere in the pros, so you would have to be a college basketball fan to know him. There are a lot of college basketball fans and "The Shot" is pretty iconic and videos of it from the NCAA are loaded with ads.

Former Villanova basketball player Kris Jenkins has opted out of the settlement and filed his own lawsuit against the Power 5, Big East, and NCAA. His suit claims that videos of him hitting the game winner in the 2016 NCAA final is the first and third most viewed video on the NCAA's March Madness Youtube page.

The $600 is a different pot

yep. and 5% may be optimistic. and the damage payments are made over 10 years. and it covers athletes who were in those sports from 2016 to 2025.

Amen. I usually do, but then I did all that color coding and I think I got too excited. I will do better next time.

Parris is a surname, not who he wrestles for.

All of the ACC, Big 10, Big 12, and Pac 12 schools are automatically opted in. That is something like 25 schools. The Ivies (6 schools) have said they will opt out. I am not aware of what the other schools have said. The settlement does not impact D1 membership or access to D1 championships.

If a school pays even a single athlete any of the enhanced benefits allowed in the settlement, then the entire school has opted in. No picking and choosing.

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.

He now knows there is someone who he can't trust.

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