ICYMI, Commissioner Sankey announces that standard fine for “field storming” in the SEC will now be (🥁)a small fraction of what it costs to get a really good quarterback.

For those awaiting Judge Wilken’s ruling in the House class action, even the most experienced trial lawyers would admit that any prediction they make about what a judge or jury will do is just an educated guess that’s only slightly more reliable than using a Ouija board.

After 27 days of trying to watch parts of the Karen Read murder trial, I’m starting to think that taking short breaks from work isn’t the best way to keep up with the latest developments.

Excellent in-depth story about the ongoing NCAA v. Michigan COI hearing by angelique with insight into how the hearing will affect Jim Harbaugh.

Serious question: what’s to stop a third party from entering into a professional services contract with an athlete, thus avoiding any review by “NIL Go.” For example, just have the athlete agree to perform the contracted services as a “talent” instead of licensing their NIL.

What’s even more interesting is that if the NCAA or P4 passed a new rule to limit professional services contracts, that would likely create a separate antitrust violation that wasn’t extinguished by the House class action and isn’t alleged in any of the pending antitrust cases.

There will come a day when the NCAA decides that collective bargaining is better than endless antitrust lawsuits. And everyone will say: “Gee, that was easy. Why didn’t they just do that in the first place?”
