Can college athletics as we knew it survive, not only after athletes get their $2.9 Billion ($300M/school) but also if they get a cut of broadcast revenue (BNIL). Even if that 20% revenue sharing is also approved costing roughly $30M/school, athletes and lawyers will likely not stop there and want up to 50% like in the pros.

It's a brave new world...
Sources: Big 12 first to settle House v. NCAA case
The Big 12 conference became the first named party in the House v NCAA case to vote to settle that case and related anti-trust cases, sources told ESPN.
Of course this is only the plaintiff's side of the story fed to the reporter by the attorney representing the plaintiff.

of course (similar to the prosecutor's version of the TJS sex assault). then again, it's clear that Florida (which includes their boosters) didn't live up to their end of the deal
Interesting because I thought multi-year deals couldn't be done. Perhaps the original agreement was unenforceable.

The only thing I know for certain is prices will be going up. That money will be coming from somewhere and the consumer is the ultimate revenue source. I cant envision exactly how it all plays out, but I don’t think donors will be the only ones required to fund this. As more money is required I wonder how long revenue sharing for the schools lasts. It’s been discussed ad nauseam I know, but the pace of change just seems to accelerate.
Edit: Posted prior to seeing the basketball forum thread. My comments are mostly redundant to the better discussion there.

$13.85 MM?!! Holy Cow.
And if NIL money keeps climbing, at some point schools in states with no income tax will have an advantage - just like in the NHL.

Members of NC State '83 title team sue NCAA
Ten players from NC State's 1983 national champion basketball team have sued the NCAA and the Collegiate Licensing Company seeking compensation for unauthorized use of their name, image and likeness.
I disagree with this lawsuit. I think film of u playing in the NCAA is the property of the NCAA. It will be interesting how this turns out
Agree, it should be dismissed immediately, but our court system is nuts.Members of NC State '83 title team sue NCAA

Judge issues ruling in bankruptcy case of Deion Sanders' son Shilo
Shilo Sanders wanted a judge to throw out a complaint that challenges his attempt to discharge $11 million in debt. The judge didn't agree.
Bankruptcy is an interesting concept. Will be interested to see how this turns out. My understanding is Sanders didn’t show up to the court case that issued him at fault and ordered the 11 million in damages
