NIL killed college hoops its now professional hoops

what is the significance of 2016
It's as far back as the statute of limitations extends for anti-trust violations. There's a four year statute of limitations for federal anti-trust claims and the case was brought in 2020, and so the statute runs back to 2016.

NIL killed college hoops its now professional hoops

Every link I've posted about the settlement has made this clear. Schools are going to have to chip in to pay that $2.78 billion. The compensation is for the income these athletes would have received if the NCAA hadn't forbidden them to receive payments for their NIL. There's nothing surprising about it at all.
2.78B is the estimated amount of endorsement money that would have been paid to student athletes in exchange for use of their name image and likeness during that time period?!
That’s wild?

Or is that the estimated amount of what they would have received for pay for play?

If it’s the second, how did they bench mark using compensation that was achieved not in the spirit of the ruling but in violation of the since established new guidelines permitting NIL, albeit not enforced.

No issues with the attempt either. Feldman is super athletic for a heavy so you have to connect or else he’ll make you pay unfortunately.
I agree as well. I thought RU was aggressive throughout — and better to see him go down on a missed shot than losing on his heels.

I also still feel bad about the 149. He just looked so much better than the OSU guy. The 30 second periods are like penalty kicks in soccer. I would rather see a referee decision like we used to have in high school back in my day.

OT: Dry January

Not harsh at all, comparing something that causes 500+ deaths PER DAY in this country alone to something that has ZERO deaths on record and PROVEN medical benefits is absurd.

The fact that we have old farts who still are worried about ‘reafer madness’ is absurd these days, and yea, I’ll tell them ‘shut up b*tch’ In my best Dwayne Johnson voice while taking a puff of my ganj.

I’m also someone who gave up drinking years ago and knows first how how much alcohol can destroy one’s life. Cannabis is an entirely different conversation.
Zero deaths ? You must be high. Lol also have you seen the stoners on the road ? You spot them all over now running red lights , stopping when they are not supposed to , swerving and doing 20 miles per hour in the fast line on and on. Both alcohol and drugs are bad .

does anyone else realize that they will also be paying FORMER athletes as well dating back to 2016..totally absurd

Who gets a piece of the $2.78 billion in damages?​

Along with the future payments to athletes, the NCAA has agreed to compensate former athletes for the money they might have otherwise made during their career. All athletes who played Division I sports from 2016 through the present are eligible to receive some of that money. The 2016 cutoff date is due to the statute of limitations on antitrust claims.

Football and men's basketball players from power conference schools will be eligible to get an average of $135,000, Berman said. Women's basketball players from power conferences could receive an average of $35,000. The likely payout for athletes from other sports will depend on how many enter claims.

For some, payouts will also be based in part on the athlete's potential earning power had they been able to sign NIL deals while in school. Berman said the highest individual estimated payout for one athlete will be $1.8 million.
