Kennyhertz Perry attorney Winter chats with The Athletic’s Auerbach about likely timing of key industry lawsuits as we enter a new year: “We aren’t going to have any huge decisions come down besides maybe the (Johnson v. NCAA) case. I’m not sure anything else is going to reach resolution in 2023. But depending on how all of these different things progress, it may be time for sports leaders to get more serious with their thinking about a new model and how to address everything hanging out there in a holistic way as opposed to trying to play whack-a-mole as issues pop up. [...] I don’t think it’s a very good strategy to let all of these outside forces, whether it’s a court or the NLRB or state legislators, be the ones to sort of dictate what you’re doing — and then you have to respond.” (link)

With the College Football Playoff semifinals on tap today, USA Today’s Wolken builds a forward-looking thesis around the expanded CFP format: “The higher you are on the pecking order of talent acquisition, the more likely your roster is to withstand the physical grind it will require to survive three or potentially four high-level matchups. [...] Programs that can both accumulate talent and practice with Georgia’s physicality are undoubtedly going to have even more of an advantage in an expanded playoff, which could be a war of attrition over three extra weeks. Of course, that’s kind of the point -- there aren’t really many programs that can do both outside of the SEC’s elite teams and a couple others like Ohio State. For everyone else, the task of winning a national title is about to be even more monumental -- and more of a physical load for players that are already being asked to play 12 games and a conference championship before the playoff starts.” (link)

Eastern Kentucky filed a motion earlier in the week asking for an extension in its conference-exit lawsuit with the OVC, saying it needs more time to review 25,000 emails pulled for discovery in the case. “These searches returned voluminous documents, the vast majority of which, while responsive to OVC’s broad requests, have no relation to any claim or defense in this case. This resulting search was therefore extremely labor intensive and time-consuming.” There’s also the issue of confidentiality & privileged status of emails sent by EKU former Board of Regents chair Diaz from his Cincinnati-based law firm's email account, which have yet to be reviewed.

More on New Jersey gaming regulators ordering sportsbooks to halt betting on the Citrus Bowl between Purdue and LSU because "an individual associated with the Purdue Football team" is in violation of state regulations. Per sources to ESPN, the individual is Boilermakers interim AC Brees, who is serving in that role for the bowl game, and is in question because of his business relationship with sportsbook PointsBet. Notably, Brees became a brand ambassador for PointsBet in June 2021 but a week after he agreed to coach Purdue, PointsBet announced it was ending its partnership with Brees. (link)

+ The great debate around hockey rink sizes continues as Wisconsin Senior Assoc. AD for Capital Projects King says a shift to a smaller ice size would cost upwards of $3M for the Badgers. Wiscy Women’s HC Johnson: “You give the skill players and the better players that the fans really want to watch an opportunity to have a little more space. The tough thing about our game, the smaller the ice sheet, the less space and time for players. And certainly over the last 15 or 20 years on the men's side and even on the women's side, players are getting bigger, they're getting stronger and, importantly, they're getting a lot faster. That space that maybe you once had, you don't have right now.” More. (link)

During his broadcast of the NC State vs. Maryland Duke’s Mayo Bowl game yesterday, Wolfpack Sports Network play-by-play announcer Hahn dropped this into his commentary: “One other bowl game involving an ACC team going on, that’s the Sun Bowl. And amongst all the illegal aliens down in El Paso, it’s UCLA 14 and Pittsburgh 6.” LEARFIELD GM of Wolfpack Sports Properties Winchester reports Hahn has been suspended indefinitely for the comments.

Mindset Strategist/Poison Pawn Chess Founder Makowsky has been a part of the UCLA FB team since 2019 and, as he puts it, “turned [the team] into a chess club.” FB HC Kelly brought Makowsky in to assist the QBs with decision-making under time and pressure, which eventually led other Bruins to take to the game. Makowsky: “The way that we’re training with chess, it’s really not about the game of chess or becoming great at chess, that’s not really what it’s about. It’s more about a field to make decisions and what I loved and saw in myself was a real clear mirror on how I was making decisions, how I would react if I made a mistake, how I would follow a process and it was so clear on the chess board.” (link)

Thursday’s Florida State vs. Oklahoma Cheez-It Bowl game averaged 5.4M viewers on ESPN, marking the largest audience of the current bowl season and the largest for the bowl  since 2013.

Yesterday's Evening Standard...

ACC Commissioner Phillips chats with the Orlando Sentinel’s Murschel ahead of Clemson’s appearance in the Orange Bowl about a number of topics. On the rumblings of some members exploring a challenge to the grant of rights with ESPN through 2036, which would cost an estimated $500M, Phillips on both the deal and rumors: “As you look into the future, it has stability, but that doesn’t mean we don’t want to increase resources, revenue, and distribution. We’re constantly looking at ways that we can do that. [...] Some of that demise of the league tends to be exaggerated at times. That’s disappointing because the league has been around for 70 years and all our schools are incredibly excited about the future. [...] However, sometimes the best decision is to stay in our current position of strength.” With an expanded playoff on the way, Phillips chimes in on the possibility of starting the FB season week zero: “We have to look at it. There’s a compression of games if you leave the season the same way. You’re going to have to have some relief, either on the back end of the season or at the front end of the season, so that’s part of the ongoing discussions and it needs to all be on the table.” (link)

The Athletic’s Fortuna weighs in on reports of Big Ten Commissioner Warren’s candidacy for the open Chicago Bears presidency, points out that Warren’s most recently-reported salary of $3.5M in 2020 is believed to be higher than most president or CEO positions in the NFL. More: “If he is ready to move jobs, then that means that the Bears are most likely willing to pay.” (link)

The Athletic’s Caple obtains emails sent by Pac-12 Commissioner Kliavkoff during this past summer’s realignment drama. In one addressed to Washington President Cauce & Stanford President Tessier-Lavigne, Kliavkoff wrote: “We are open to discussing a strategic relationship with the Big12 [sic] that could help both Conferences and we have no preconceived notions about what would be possible or not; we think it is worth exploring. [...] and the ACC commissioner knows that we are talking to the Big12. [...] We want to work in good faith to see if there is value we can create together, but the certainty of each of our current memberships is essential to the potential value of any prospective collaboration The Pac-12 has not called or contacted a single president or AD or any other affiliated person with any Big12 school in the last week and we have not returned any such calls, recognizing the potential larger value to our members of a prospective collaboration with [the] Big12 that increases our competitiveness on the national landscape.” (link)

Per a joint release, the commissioners of the MEAC, SWAC, CIAA (DII), and SIAC (DII) “have agreed to partner in more collaborative ways to strengthen the value of our HBCU conferences and to protect and amplify the HBCU brand.” After meeting over the past three years, the leaders “will continue to meet monthly with a focused agenda to share ideas, advocate in spaces that impact our conferences and institutions, develop new opportunities, and expand current programming, and mostly to engage all four conference members and leadership where applicable.” (link)

Iowa AD Barta continued his defense of the department’s decision to withhold the personal information of donors and season ticket holders from the Swarm Collective, telling reporters on Friday that the Hawkeyes were immediately supportive of the NIL organization but had a difference of opinion on that key issue: “We’re not going to do that. We haven’t done it for anyone else. I’ve talked to a lot of ADs around the country, and I still haven’t heard one school that has done that. I’ve heard from plenty of season-ticket holders and donors that say, ‘You better not give away my personal information.’ So, we won’t do that. But we’ll continue to support the Swarm.” Further, Barta expressed interest in allowing athletic departments to run collectives themselves, eliminating the need for a third party involved in NIL transactions, and transforming NIL money into a form of financial aid: “We need something that just takes the free agency, no rules concept out of this.” (link)

The D1.dossier for the big chair opening at UNC Wilmington is now available for those interested in leading the Seahawks. William & Mary AD Mann: “It allowed me to focus on prep work, and not the research needed to pull it together. Worth every penny!” (link)

Coaches Wire…

+ Wofford MBB HC McAuley has resigned after previously being forced to take a leave of absence. Per Stadium’s Goodman, student-athletes had complained to administration that McAuley practiced too much and was too tough on them, “but this seems like a case of veteran players utilizing their power to get rid of coach.” (link)

+ Maryland FB HC Locksley rocks the big hat… presumably to avoid a Mayo bath after the Terrapins defeated NC State in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl. Locksley eventually took off the cap & Mayo was promptly dumped on his dome. (link, link)

+ Texas FB HC Sarkisian lost his composure for a moment in the pre-game tunnel right before last night’s Alamo Bowl. Sarkisian gave a game ops staffer an ear full for placing a hand on his chest as he waited for the cue for the Longhorns to take the field. NSFW lip reading. (link)

ESPN’s Purdum reports “New Jersey gaming regulators on Friday ordered the sportsbooks to halt betting on the Citrus Bowl between Purdue and LSU, because ‘an individual associated with Purdue Football team’ is in violation of state regulations.” (link)

The NCAA reversed course on a targeting call made against Arkansas DB McAdoo during Wednesday’s Liberty Bowl, vacating his suspension for the first half of the Razorbacks’ first game in 2023. (link); Arkansas AD Yurachek used the occasion as a chance to laud SEC officiating, tweeting after the game: “I will go on the record after tonight’s Liberty Bowl game that we have it pretty good when it comes to @SECOfficiating and our collaborative replay crew in Birmingham. Wow!” (link)

In bowl game ticket sales, today’s South Carolina v. Notre Dame Gator Bowl was nearly a sellout with the Gamecocks accounting for over 40K of the around 65K fans expected to be in attendance, with half coming via USC’s official allotment and the other coming via the Gator Bowl website. The Sugar Bowl is projecting around 55K attendees, which would be one of the lowest attended Sugar Bowls “since the expansion of Tulane Stadium in 1940,” per the New Orleans ADVOCATE’s Lewis. Sugar Bowl CEO Hundley aptly comments: “Certain programs have very high expectation levels for their teams, and when those expectations aren’t met, the fans react.” As for the Pinstripe Bowl between Syracuse and Minnesota, the game brought in 31,131 fans with a strong contingent from the Orange faithful. SBJ with the compilation. (link)

South Carolina - or more likely an affiliated Gamecocks supporter— with a banner flying above Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, home to tonight’s Orange Bowl between Tennessee and Clemson, that reads “Enjoy Your Bowl Game - Gamecocks.” As you’ll recall, SC’s back-to-back victories over both teams ended any College Football Playoff hopes for both programs.
