Ohio State remained No. 1 in this week’s College Football Playoff rankings and is followed by Indiana, Texas A&M, Alabama, Georgia, Texas Tech, Ole Miss, Oregon, Notre Dame, Texas, Oklahoma and BYU in the top 12. Followed by: Utah, Vanderbilt, Miami (FL) (in the field as projected ACC champ), Georgia Tech, USC, Michigan, Virginia, Louisville, Iowa, Pittsburgh, Tennessee, USF (in the field as projected top rated Group of 5 champ) and Cincinnati. (link, link); With USF as the lone Group of 5 representative in the rankings, Baylor AD/CFP Selection Committee Chair Mack Rhoades noted that Tulane and James Madison “were certainly part of the conversation and discussion when we talked about Group of 5. …  Memphis and – I'm thinking here out loud in terms of anybody else. It was Tulane, it was South Florida, it was Memphis, it was James Madison. San Diego State had the bad loss at Hawaii. Boise State certainly part of the conversation, as well.” On James Madison in particular, Rhoades noted that the “part that was really hard to overcome for the committee was their schedule strength. Just quite frankly, that was a big part of that conversation.” More analysis from Rhoades. (link)

Conference USA Commissioner Judy MacLeod joined the league’s C-USA Insider podcast. With the hoops season getting underway, MacLeod believes the league’s men’s and women’s teams have “incredible depth” and multi-bid NCAA Tournament potential, underscoring the importance of strong nonconference opportunities like Liberty’s Field of 68 title and Western Kentucky’s Battle 4 Atlantis berth. Speaking more broadly, MacLeod credited league members with making the necessary investments to remain competitive: “We decided we’re not going to put rules in from the get-go. We’re going to take a moment, see if we can evaluate the landscape, and then see where we fit. So we actually hired an outside consultant to help us understand the landscape and where everyone sat and what people were spending, to be really honest. Then we went through the process with our ADs and our board, and our board sat in a room, president to president, and decided to commit to some standards in this league. I think that’s really important and it’s going to guide us for the next three years.” (link)

The Oklahoma Board of Regents has approved the design for renovations to Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, which include 47 suites, 64 loge boxes, approximately 4,000 new club seats and more improved fan amenities with construction anticipated to commence following the 2027 season. The project also includes a new expanded press box, sideline-oriented sports lighting system and sound system enhancements. OU President Joseph Harroz Jr. on the project’s impact on the Sooners’ AD search: “It shows commitment, it shows investment to the individuals that are worthy of this man's (longtime Sooners AD Joe Castiglione) legacy and the legacy of our institution. They can see. What great candidates look for is not just a storied program, not just being a so-called blue blood, but being in a position to win during this time of turbulence, and being able to understand and be structured to be competitive for the future. When they look at this project, hopefully, what they see is an enterprise that isn't sitting still, that is disciplined, that is thoughtful about what today and tomorrow will likely look like, and to be best positioned to adapt to that."

Rutgers Football HC Greg Schiano’s blunt October comments assessing the Scarlet Knights’ NIL past were motivating to AD Keli Zinn who, per NIL Wire’s Kyle Rowland, admitted to being guarded about the program’s shortcomings. Zinn: “It’s not going to be an issue in the future. That’s the biggest part of the message. […] We can’t sit in the bottom third of the league and then expect to compete in the top third of the league. So how then do you get them there, specifically from a resource point? And then you make sure that the added investment shows up in the recruiting cycle. If we’re putting in more resources for the upcoming transfer cycles and the upcoming signing classes, you can go out and look at your history and see that you’re attracting a better level of talent. Therein lies the strategy that’s happening across the country in the world of NIL for a number of years. Now, with revenue sharing, it puts a level playing field on your competitors.” (link)

Auburn’s Football HC search so far has been “deliberate but steady, shaped largely by timing, roster developments and changes to the NCAA calendar,” according to On3’s Justin Hokanson, who adds: “Internally, Auburn athletic director John Cohen believes next year’s football roster could approach $30M when all is said and done. That will be in the ballpark regarding a price tag for a championship-caliber team. How Auburn handles Hugh Freeze’s buyout, the staff’s buyouts and the salary for the next head coach will run parallel to those roster needs. It’s difficult to have it all.” Hokanson also reports Auburn is conducting interviews this week with sitting Power 4 HCs. More. (link)

Sports Illustrated’s Kevin Hicks spotlights a culture of collaboration across Arizona State athletics, as head coaches and Sun Devils AD Graham Rossini work in lockstep to build what volleyball coach JJ Van Niel calls “a really special” support system, adding: “culture here with our head coaches is awesome. We have a coach thread, and coaches reach out all the time, bounce ideas off each other. … It can be lonely being a head coach, and I think when you have a nice support group, it makes it really fun.” Women’s Basketball HC Molly Miller echoes that sentiment, describing ASU’s staff as “one of the most connected groups of head coaches that I have been a part of,” adding: “Only head coaches know what this seat feels like. … We can really bounce ideas off each other. We can share trials and tribulations, and it’s just a really connected group. It truly is a family.” Hicks goes on to note that Rossini’s leadership since succeeding Ray Anderson has strengthened that sense of unity — with visible support for coaches, efforts to enhance NIL resources, and improvements to fan experience that align with the department’s “connected athletic experience” vision.

Asbury Park Press’ Jerry Carino points out that Monmouth has become the first of New Jersey’s DI mid-majors to add an NIL-titled leadership role, hiring Pat Elliott as Senior Assoc. AD for Annual Giving, NIL and Revenue. Elliott, formerly AD at Saint Peter’s and Binghamton and most recently Seton Hall’s Director of Development, said the new post reflects the financial realities of modern college athletics: “Where college athletics is right now, there’s a need for new revenue streams, and also to increase existing revenue streams. That’s the major focus of the position.” Elliott adds: “I’ve spent my whole career trying to figure out: How do we get our coaches and student-athletes to have the resources to be competitive in their league? So that’s in my DNA. Now there are a couple of different variables – and that’s where fundraising comes in. There are generous people out there, but you have to make a good case and it has to fit their interest on how they want to invest and make a difference.” Player retention, Elliott believes, is a key challenge in the NIL and revenue-sharing era: “You have to build a pipeline of revenue so coaches can make multiyear decisions in recruiting. … If you don’t, it really makes it difficult for there to be any type of commitments.” (link)

Early-season college basketball has become a nightmare for “old-heads,” as the sport’s opening week averaged 76.5 points per game—its highest since at least the mid-1990s and possibly the 1970s, according to KenPom Founder Ken Pomeroy. Thanks to rule changes over the past decade, such as a shorter shot clock, deeper three-point line and revised charge calls, offensive output has exploded, culminating in what Pomeroy calls a “Celebration of Points” when Alabama beat St. John’s 103-96 last weekend. Last Saturday’s slate averaged 78.9 points per game, the most in 30 years for any day with 50+ Division I games, and Pomeroy notes that the modern era has also produced record-high offensive efficiency and free-throw accuracy with each of the last nine seasons ranking among the best ever. Furthermore, Pomeroy contends that fears regarding “iso ball” due to a shorter clock are unfounded, as 53% of made baskets were assisted, matching pre-2015 levels. While game lengths and fouls remain concerns, Pomeroy argues the sport is “in the best place it’s been for quite some time,” with more pace, skill, and balance than in the grind-heavy 2010s. (link)

Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Steve Cochran has denied a motion for an expedited hearing in the lawsuit filed by former USC Executive Senior Assoc. AD/SWA Joyce Bell Limbrick, who alleges racial and gender discrimination, harassment, and retaliation tied to former AD Mike Bohn’s conduct. Bell Limbrick’s attorneys argued USC has refused to identify who fired her or produce the documents used to justify her dismissal, but Cochran ruled that her legal team “failed to make an affirmative factual showing of irreparable harm or immediate danger.” USC’s lawyers contend the motion was a “strategic effort…to manufacture urgency and accelerate unnecessary motion practice” and insist they’ve cooperated with discovery. Bell Limbrick claims Bohn “made her life hell,” isolating and undermining her as the only Black woman on USC’s athletics executive team. The suit also alleges USC ignored multiple complaints before ultimately terminating Bell Limbrick in September 2023 under “false pretenses.” A hearing is set for February 5. (link)

The Mighty Bruin’s Joe Piechowski reports that newly obtained court filings reveal UCLA has no contractual path to exit its Rose Bowl lease before 2044. The documents include an Oct. 28 letter from Rose Bowl Operating Company attorney Nima Mohebbi, who states: “Let me speak clearly: the City and the RBOC will not agree to an early termination of the Agreement. Absent termination, UCLA may not play its home football games in any stadium located in Los Angeles County or Orange County other than the Rose Bowl. UCLA voluntarily extended the term of the Agreement through June 30, 2044, expressly waived any right to terminate early, and agreed that its commitments could be enforced through equitable remedies.” The RBOC cites Paragraphs 30.a and 32 of the lease, which permit termination only if a “Game-Threatening Default” prevents UCLA from playing scheduled home games and the Rose Bowl fails to cure after notice. Pasadena asserts “no ‘Game-Threatening Default’ has occurred; nor has UCLA ever provided notice of one.” Piechowski concludes the filings make clear there is no buyout clause and no viable default claim, leaving UCLA bound to the Rose Bowl absent a settlement the city has “flatly rejected.” (link)

The HBCU Classic match-up between Norfolk State and Delaware State at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia far exceeded DSU President Tony Allen’s expectations, per The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Devin Jackson, who notes The Linc’s staff made it feel like a home game for the [Delaware State] program, from a pregame light show to painting the end zones and the midfield logo in the Hornets colors. Allen: “We all kind of agreed that if we filled that first bowl at the bottom of the stadium, which was somewhere [around] 28,000 people, that would be significant success for us. So to land at 47,266 [people], with a college fair and a step show and a career fair, folks from across the HBCU ecosystem ... it felt like a classic. It really did. Now we are thinking about what this looks like annually [and] making sure that we can uplift the HBCU ecosystem and in a city where the suburbs birthed the first two HBCUs in the country in Cheyney and Lincoln.” (link)

Evening Standard

President Donald Trump wants “very powerful caps” to limit college athlete salaries so that universities won’t “go out of business.” In an interview on The Pat McAfee Show, Trump also explained that he fears “lesser” sports also are being discontinued because of revenue sharing. “It is a very serious problem because even football, when they give quarterbacks $12M, $13M, $14M — I read a couple of them — and all of a sudden you’re going to see it’s going to be out of control, and even rich colleges are going to go bust. … They had the old way. They gave scholarships, and they did lots of good things. But there could be some form of payments, but…look, the NFL, and all of you know, all teams, they have caps. You don’t really have that in college sports.” Trump added: “When the guard comes along that weighs 350 pounds and he’s phenomenal, and they say, ‘That’s going to make the difference between having a great team and a lousy team’, and they give him $10M — that’s going to start happening pretty soon — all of a sudden you’re going to have NFL-type payrolls.” Also from Trump: “I don’t want to use any particular sport, because it’s, you know, degrading. But they are really terminating a lot of sports…you would call them lesser sports, but big sports, good sports, and sports where they have tremendous interest, they’re getting rid of them.” (link)

NCAA President Charlie Baker sent a letter to membership on Monday noting that “the association’s settlement of a class action lawsuit (Ray v. NCAA) brought by volunteer coaches will cost $303M over three years and be financed by ‘distribution reductions, net assets and national office contributions.’” More from the letter: “As part of the agreement, plaintiffs agreed to release any claims against Division I conferences and member schools for conduct during the Class Period regarding the issues about volunteer coaches raised in the litigation, including claims for unpaid wages and benefits, damages for lost opportunities or restraint of trade. The Class Period ends on June 30, 2023, the last day the Division I volunteer coach bylaws were in effect. [...] NCAA revenue distributions could be negatively impacted as soon as May 2026. We will keep you informed as the [Board of Governors], DI Board and respective finance committees develop the financial plan for these payments.” Full letter text from Yahoo’s Ross Dellenger. (link)

An anonymous Big Ten school official weighs in on the perceived lack of transparency regarding the league's $2.4B financial arrangement, remarking: “There's a piece of this that is just ridiculous. So whatever anybody thinks about the deal, the idea that there hasn't been transparency is laughable. There have been hundreds of hours. This has been an item on a weekly AD agenda for over a year. There have been meetings with presidents, individual meetings with institutions, with agreement to come and make multiple presentations. And those have happened at institutions where they've been requested for more detail and information, and that level of engagement directly with ADs and presidents and boards depending on what institution needed what. This commentary that this is a last-minute deal that hasn't had any discussion behind it is just completely a farce. My level of frustration is about these other things that have an impact on where the Big Ten and where [Commissioner] Tony [Petitti], frankly, positions himself, and I think are harmful, and they're not accurate, and nobody's talking about that piece. I honestly cannot recall a time in which we have been together via zoom or in person, certainly, where this hasn't been a topic of discussion.” (link) 

Conference USA filed a public record suit on Nov. 5 accusing departing member Louisiana Tech of withholding key documents related to its decision to leave for the Sun Belt, per Sportico’s Daniel Libit, who notes the league alleges the withheld records “would undercut the school’s claim to its latest ‘multi-million-dollar annual distribution’ that it received from the conference on June 27. Libit: “Less than three weeks later, on July 14, the school formally notified the conference of its intention to depart to the Sun Belt, effective July 1, 2026. CUSA contends that this notice violated its bylaws, which requires member schools to give at least a 14-months’ heads-up before withdrawing. However, had Louisiana Tech adhered to this timeline, the conference says, it would have forfeited its most recent bounty, since CUSA’s bylaws also prohibit withdrawing members from receiving distributions for two years following notice. Thus, CUSA accuses Louisiana Tech of trying to ‘have its cake and eat it too.’ [...] For now, CUSA has requested show-cause hearing (scheduled for Nov. 19), declaratory judgments that the board failed to properly respond to its records request, and writ of mandamus compelling the production of all responsive public records, and an award of costs and attorney fees.” More.

The Athletic’s Ralph Russo and Chris Vannini with more on the legal filing from former LSU Football HC Brian Kelly and his nearly $54M buyout. “LSU first offered Kelly a lump-sum payment of $25M with no offset, meaning Kelly would receive the $25M even if he took another job, according to the suit. LSU later upped the offer to $30M over two payments, with no offset.” On3’s Pete Nakos adds: “Brian Kelly’s lawsuit also alleges that LSU told Kelly’s reps on Monday that [former AD Scott] Woodward did not have ‘the authority to terminate Coach Kelly and/or make settlement offers to him’ in October. The lawsuit also included communications from Kelly’s legal representatives to LSU representatives alleging that Kelly was told someone from Gov. Jeff Landry’s office would be reaching out to Kelly to discuss the terms of his buyout.” (link, link); Full complaint text. (link)

Oklahoma’s Board of Regents has approved actions advancing the Sooner Baseball program’s stadium renovation and expansion project as well as the naming of Kimrey Family Stadium and the L. Dale Mitchell Plaza in recognition of philanthropic support from Brian and Kim Kimrey. Set for competition by the 2026 campaign, Project 1 includes updates to the outfield wall, batter’s eye, bullpens, exterior fence and spectator areas beyond the outfield wall. With November’s action, Project 2 now officially moves forward with construction expected to start after the 2026 season, beneficial use of the stadium anticipated for the 2028 campaign and final completion of the student-athlete areas slated for spring 2028. This phase will feature significant expansion and improvements to team facilities, seating bowl upgrades and fan enhancements, including new concessions, restrooms and a dedicated fan plaza. Estimated cost for Project 2 is $41.7M, bringing the total projected cost for the full stadium renovation to $45M. (link, link, link)

Upgrades extend throughout the facility with new locker rooms, concession areas, player lounges and more. (link)

Former Stanford Football HC Troy Taylor and ESPN have each filed court briefs over stories the network published in March, per Sportico’s Michael McCann, who notes Taylor described the stories as clickbait “hit pieces,” saying they were defamatory and led to his firing. Taylor contends ESPN inaccurately reported on two workplace investigations concerning his interactions with female Stanford athletics staffers and that those investigations, which weren’t previously known to the public, created controversy when ESPN broke the news. He objects to ESPN reporting that both investigations found he “bullied” staffers, while also disputing the depiction of both investigations concluding that Taylor treated female employees in ways “inconsistent with Stanford’s standards,” and that the investigations were launched because of complaints filed by “multiple employees” accusing him of “hostile and aggressive behavior, as well as personal attacks.” Taylor also maintains these statements are “provably false” and ESPN “knew them to be false at the time they were made.” In a motion to dismiss filed last month, ESPN swears its reporting was “substantially true” and depicts Taylor as making a mountain out of a molehill. To bolster its defense, ESPN cites court rulings from defamation lawsuits showing that “truth” doesn’t have to mean the “literal truth.” The case is scheduled for a jury trial starting March 24, 2027, but attorneys will hold a hearing on December 2 on ESPN’s motion to dismiss.
