The plan includes a revenue-sharing model where schools can distribute millions to their athletes under a structured cap. The first year’s cap is projected to be around .5 million per school. While some believe this is a step toward better financial fairness for athletes, others worry about unintended consequences, and how things will be monitored moving forward.It seems like only a matter of time before the conferences break away from the NCAA altogether, though this hasn't happened as of yet.
What’s Happening?
The plan includes a revenue-sharing model where schools can distribute millions to their athletes under a structured cap. The first year’s cap is projected to be around .5 million per school. While some believe this is a step toward better financial fairness for athletes, others worry about unintended consequences, and how things will be monitored moving forward.This could mark a major turning point in how college athletics are governed.
A Shift in Power
Big changes are coming to college sports, and Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger has the scoop. According to his latest report, power conference administrators are making moves to shift control of athlete compensation enforcement away from the NCAA. This could mark a major turning point in how college athletics are governed.The new enforcement body will include a cap management system, an NIL clearinghouse, and an investigative unit. It will be responsible for making sure schools don’t exceed salary caps or violate new compensation rules. Schools caught breaking these rules could face penalties such as fines, reductions in revenue-sharing pools, or even suspensions for coaches and administrators, according to the report from Dellenger.
