Episode 55: Mike McCann and Andrew Brandt discuss the "Day it All Changed" for college sports.
Manage episode 387850022 series 3504598
On December 5th, 2023, NCAA President Charlie Baker proposed major changes to the college sports model. Under proposal, all DI schools would be allowed to do NIL deals directly with their athletes and could offer athletes "any level of enhanced educational benefits they deem appropriate."
The proposal would also create a new subdivision of DI schools that could create a "trust fund" for each athlete of at least $30,000 per year and would allow the schools to create more permissive rules for recruiting, NIL, transfers, roster size, and pay-for-play.
What does it all mean and where do we go from here? Michael McCann and Andrew Brandt join the pod to discuss.
