...any of the revenue benefit. Is it really that difficult to figure out why that option was not appealing to a lot of people at the state house? It is also completely reasonable for people to think that the Big East haters want a return to the AAC because many of those Big East haters are...

...imbalance and a lot of blowouts. NIL briefly moved the game pieces around, giving a team like TCU a chance to make the CFP, but the House decision is moving the entire sport where there will be a huge disparity, not just between leagues, but within leagues. The sport got a big help from...

...that even his Presidents may decide they are not on board with this kind of power play. They could get in a legal mess that could dwarf the House settlement. Anti-competitive behavior and any kind of price fixing can have criminal penalties in addition to the civil ones. Operating under...

...several lawyers, argued with me about it. Who turned out to be right? Has the NCAA or P4/5 ever won a serious anti-trust case? This House case is a surrender before they even go to court. The SEC and Big 10's power play makes their anti-trust problem worse, not better. They have two...

...the sports put up with things like realignment where field hockey and volleyball teams travel halfway across the country for a game. With the House settlement coming, and potential additional litigation beyond it, football and basketball have become a lot less profitable. I think a lot of...

Really? I think I may have mentioned the House settlement once or twice on this board. https://the-boneyard.com/threads/the-house-case.200727/ https://the-boneyard.com/search/1897214/?q=House&c[users]=nelsonmuntz&o=relevance

Alston was decided 9-0 against the NCAA, and the NCAA/P4 is trying to settle for billions on House. There were two cases on the 80’s and 90’s about TV rights that the NCAA lost.

https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/as-college-athletics-prepares-for-revenue-sharing-fallout-leaders-wonder-is-a-breakaway-from-the-ncaa-next/ College football is about to get a lot more expensive, and a lot more complicated, for everyone. 22% of AD revenue, or $22 million, is a...

And say what? What new information do we have for the ACC that they don't already know? No one is going to do anything until the landscape changes, which it is about to. Just try not to cake our pants for a few months, and see how the House settlement plays out.

I did not see this. It deserves its own thread. This may create UConn's last but best shot. I do not expect all the P4 schools to sign up for this. There should be openings.

...cable boxes as its network got bigger. USC/UCLA and Texas/OK were recognizing that Alston was about to rock everyone's world. Now the House case is hitting. The ACC knows everything they need to know about us. I think the P4 is going to spend some time deciding whether it needs to break...

...the Big 12 pay FSU and Clemson with? Outback coupons? The networks did not want to expand the Big 12. ESPN and Fox have to be looking at the House Settlement and wondering if college sports, and particularly college football, are going to be a major sport for fans in 5-10 years. Why would...

All those numbers are pre-House settlement. Football is about to get a lot less profitable at every school. Unfortunately, most of those other schools we want to compete with have a lot more football revenue than we do.

Left behind to what? The highest level of college football has huge uncertainty in revenue (end of the cable bundle), costs (House settlement), and conference affiliation. There are dozens of ways this can play out, some of which would make it better for UConn to not join the Big 12 right now.

She doesn't understand the difference between revenue and profitability. The profitability picture of college football is about to get a lot more muddled with the House Settlement.

...or whatever fantasy number people want to throw out, but there is no evidence we are getting that. No one knows what the implications of the House settlement would be, making jumping at the first offer we get potentially a massive mistake. What happens if the elite academic schools bail...

Why do people insist on insulting those that disagree with them? People are not hesitant about this move purely because of nostalgia. UConn is in a good basketball league that pays reasonably well and has nearby teams that fans care about. The pro-BE contingent gets that the Big East is a big...

I like House of the Dragon better than most of the Game of Thrones run. The characters are complex and interesting, and the plot twists have created a feeling that all of them are headed towards inexorable disaster despite many of their best efforts to avoid it. It is well done.

...wasn't for the lawsuit in 2003, UConn would have 5 fewer men's national championships in basketball and have never made the Fiesta Bowl. The House decision was odd in that non-P4 schools paid any of the back penalties, much less a sizable chunk of them. Either that action will result in...

Is college sports more profitable, or does it just generate revenue? Every football program in the country is seeing its labor costs skyrocket.

That is completely different. The U.S. government has programs to help people pay rent and have housing. If the government does not do that, some people will not have housing. Someone has to own those housing units, so PE firms stepped up because they knew there was demand for the rental...

I think this House settlement is turning really bad for football. If only 30-35 schools are going to be able to play big time football, the remaining schools will cut back on scholarships. This will impact the number of kids that pursue scholarships in football. The cost of running a big time...

I think many people are confusing revenue and profitability. In the post-House world, maybe 20-30 football programs will be profitable, and that will take substantial reductions in overhead to pull off.

The decline of the linear cable model means every league is looking at a completely new revenue model within 5 years. Together with the House decision making football much more expensive, I don't know how anyone makes any decisions on football in this environment.

People continue to confuse revenue and profit. X and Y have very low overhead and manageable costs (even post-House), and are general profitable when done at a high level. Z has a huge overhead cost that just got a lot worse with the House Settlement. Many major conference programs were...

...CVC for decades to come. Investors are already rich and can already get access to the players they want access too. See above. Investors want returns. PE can't fix a business that barely made money before House, and whose market may be shrinking dramatically if dozens of schools are forced...

College football has gotten a lot less profitable in the last month with the House settlement. Programs are going through their own overhead with an axe right now. Football has 85 scholarships, roughly 60 that need significant NIL payments, and a huge staff to manage. There are only 7 home...

I am a little disappointed by the back pay expense split, but House is still going to leave a big mark. Going forward, football just became a lot less profitable. Now UConn would like some more chaos.

Worked pretty well in the Alston and House cases.

...anti-trust violation, which makes it unlikely they will even hear another anti-trust case, they will just refer to the Alston precedent. The House plaintiffs have a gun against the P4's head demanding a settlement now, or they are going to court in a case that the P4 is GUARANTEED TO LOSE...

The smart move by the non-football conferences would be to simply stop the settlement. File an injunction preventing the NCAA from approving any settlement. The Big East isn't a named defendant in the House lawsuit. Let the P4 sweat.

...SMU is also a possibility. I suspect that lawsuit, if it happens, will come after the prospective plaintiffs see what happens with the post-House shakeout. Because as the article states, several schools are not on board with this future model of college athletics. Two things that seem...

...leagues have a lot of leverage, because the settlement amount is going to be a lot more than $2.8 billion if it goes to court, and the P5 will end up pay almost all of it. The House plaintiffs want a settlement soon or they are going to court, which puts the P5 leagues in a really precarious...

The P4 lost Alston 9-0 at the Supreme Court, and are about to lose another huge antitrust lawsuit in House, and they are consolidating further? Really?

...the current contract because ESPN needs content and probably doesn’t want the ACC to break up. 2) There is definitely a component of performance art for FSU’s more moronic fans to FSU’s lawsuit. Ironically, between the CFP and House case, there seems to be less actual logic to FSU leaving.
