Like the Washington Generals on the court, NCAA lawyers have been winless in the courtroom.
And it doesn't look like there is a win in sight as House vs. the NCAA, the most-recent anti-trust lawsuit seeking revenue sharing for student-athletes, is steaming through the judicial system. Meanwhile, efforts to carve out an "amateur niche" for collegiate athletics has born no fruit on Capital Hill. As a result, college administrators from league offices and schools have been in negotiations for months in an attempt to reach agreement to settle the lawsuit, according to a report by Yahoo and by ESPN in the last few days. Yahoo’s Ross Dellenger described the negotiations as “heating up” but cautioned that it’s uncertain an agreement is imminent.
Yahoo, which is the parent company of Rivals, outlined the settlement in two aspects, from compensation to athletes for NIL within broadcasts, to future compensation for revenue sharing with athletes.
