Drafting memo on why NCAA Bylaw 22.2.2.5, requiring HS prospects to disclose pre-enrollment #NIL deals of $600+, is unenforceable. It exceeds the scope of House settlement, binding non-class members (pre-enrollees) in violation of due process and federal rules of civil procedure. We stand ready to challenge enforcement.

Will we see challenges to Trumps EO on college sports as unconstitutional? Con law scholars, thoughts?!

Thoughts??🤨🤔 https://t.co/JIM2WDyuCr

Trump is reportedly working on an NIL executive order, which is expected to either establish NCAA-friendly rules to limit the earning potential of players or establish a commission to investigate athlete compensation.

TCU’s AD made some comments about NIL/athlete compensation that I’m hearing more and more from those in the space.

1. Donor fatigue is real. There isn’t endless donor money to pay for athlete NIL compensation.

2. Schools would like to bring NIL fundraising/funding in-house.

The Caitlin Clark effect:

Big Ten women’s basketball tournament in Minneapolis is a near complete sell out despite being two weeks away. Fewer than 2,000 tickets across seven sessions remain (expected 109,000 fans).

Will be the first ever full sell-out for the women’s event.

[Darren Heitner @heitner]

For many players opting in will be a no-brainer. But what about the star quarterback at an SEC school? Will his agents recommend that he not opt in? Will EA Sports be willing to negotiate individual deals with star players outside of the group licensing regime?
