The NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament is nearing its conclusion, but a major legal settlement is also on the horizon. A federal judge will review a proposed $2.75 billion settlement benefiting college athletes, addressing payments for those who played before July 2021 and establishing future compensation frameworks. This development follows a series of legal defeats for the NCAA regarding athlete payments, particularly after a 2021 Supreme Court ruling. NCAA President Charlie Baker supports the settlement, asserting it prioritizes athlete welfare and academic opportunities alongside athletic pursuits.
Most of the entities that are involved in the NIL, their primary interest is athletics. They don't really care very much about academics... this settlement is a big win for student athletes.
