Hearing MN QB1 starting July 2025 will receive $6M in revenue sharing, a Bentley and driver, a fully stocked mini-fridge, and a solid gold ceremonial drinking horn.

Yeah as I recall it there was quite a gap between the portal announcement and Rutgers announcing. I’m pretty skeptical there was any sort of contract offer in place before he was ejected.

Didn’t watch, did a Gopher fan pay him to leave

Maybe another interesting question is what we’d have with the old two or four team playoff. The savants who always seem to know who the best teams are may have trouble polishing the crystal ball this year. Popular bet has to be Oregon or Ohio State. Is that where the money is flowing?

Going to guess the team with the best defense, which is…I don’t know. I’d like Boise State to go on an insane, unlikely run but yeah thats probably not going to happen.

If the program ends up having leeway on how to allocate the revenue sharing do you put most of it into the linemen, or spread it around more. Choose your fighter.

For perspective on all these funny numbers getting thrown around The Swarm collective 2023 tax return was recently published as they claim…federal tax-exempt status. Anyway, buried down at the bottom I believe they state they made $2.6M in athlete payments during 2023 (all sports). They took...

Can’t fault the agents for trying. This is what they do.

Yeah, it doesn’t have to be this way, and probably won’t be forever. It’ll be even bigger for more tv $. The conference and name discrimination will endure.

Not only that but I guess we already know the best teams. I don’t, but anyway.

For anyone who knows the best couple teams, post your remaining bracket.

On to the tough luck Buckeyes and our tragic hero, Ryan Day.

Because it’s Bama, and it’s 2009 /s

Have to think congress would need to make that particular carve out but from my seat in the peanut gallery literally everything imaginable has a potential carevout to existing law. Just need to “convince” the right people but that’s potentially an expensive game - and who is on the athletes’...

Maybe. Who knows.

These CFP games so far…what’s the opposite of great

I’m suprised Iger hasn’t figured out a way to get every American, nay make that global household to subsidize ESPN+ yet. Stay tuned….🙂

My understanding is pretty much every NCAA rule violates the antitrust law, except where federal or state law allows. States regulate licensure of drivers, professionals, tradesmen in what I’d guess as an effort to protect the welfare of the general public. Fair to argue how necessary that...

I only play a lawyer on tv but when the NCAA decided not to fight anymore that uncorked all of the ramifications of the Sherman Antitrust act of 1890. Restrictions of trade, competition. The pro leagues are protected by congressional fiat or collective bargaining laws. Maybe SCOTUS or congress...

Now that it’s here I’m pretty excited for the first ever semi-inclusive college football playoff. The curiously seeded Notre Dame (maybe for the NIU win…oh) hosts the upstart Hoosiers tonight in an interesting matchup. Kinda feels like the Hoosiers could take this one straight up but what do I...
