House case settlement in jeopardy.

Without it, there will likely be a big delay in revenue sharing.

I am to the point where if the whole thing becomes untenable and crashes the financial model of college sports, so be it. The universities allowed themselves to get into this situation by decades of poor management of the issue. Their "Student Athlete" approach was a fallacy for more than 40 years.

Now, the players are demanding what is "theirs" and have created their own chaos by doing so. Not saying that they don't deserve something, but this whole NIL thing is out of control.

A pox on all of their houses.

In the short term, some schools may run outta NIL $ since they’re using rev share for this next year. It could be a huge mess with some players deciding to shut down if they’re not being paid. It doesn’t appear that Tennessee has spent the rev share portion in football yet.

Part of me hopes it happens……

Why do you want to limit how much money other people make from their abilities? We go to the Gabe's to watch the athletes.. They dontge work. They deserve what they can get from the market just like anyone else.

how are schools going to run out of NIL money?

they haven't been paying into the NIL money. that has been, and will remain, provided by outside parties.

the revenue sharing is exactly that, sharing of the SCHOOL's revenue sharing. a schools revenue has never been tied to NIL.

I never saw how the House settlement could bind future players. It can resolve issues concerning past Anti-Trust violations but it can't create future rules through the settlement.. As I've said before, Congress is the only entity that has the power to save college sports in any recognizable form by crafting enforceable national rules. No one else has the necessary power to even try to fix it.

Technically the collective does pay the NIL money but it’s in association with being at the school.

Knowledgeable people have said new schools are in the market for top players this year vs years past due to the addition of the rev sharing $ to their NIL $. If the settlement is thrown out, I understand the rev share portion won’t be available.

Ex: School A has $15 mil NIL budget but has committed another $15 mi from rev share to players for a total of $30 mil. If the rev share is not available, somebody ain’t getting paid
