U.S. District Court Judge John P. Bailey will issue a ruling tomorrow morning that could temporarily suspend the NCAA’s transfer policy, paving the way for student-athletes who have had waivers denied or whose waivers are outstanding to play immediately at their new schools, Yahoo’s Ross Dellenger notes, adding: “While the lawsuit in West Virginia seeks to give athletes the ability to transfer an unlimited amount of times and retain their immediate eligibility, some believe that it’s time to make rules more strict by getting rid of the waiver process.” MAC Commissioner Jon Steinbrecher: “I want to propose eliminating waivers. I am teeing it up for the DI Council. … We’re going to get challenged no matter what we do, as we’re seeing. I think it’s crazy we now have attorney generals and senators weighing in on stuff. Come on. “We need to manage our own business. That’s how associations work. If you don’t like the rule, then change something. That’s on us. Do we have a rule problem or transfer problem? I think we have a waiver problem.” Baylor President Linda Livingstone agrees the waiver process has become unwieldy, particularly given the mental health component associated with many requests. “It’s really difficult to judge that and be fair about it. Should we be making determinations about the significance of mental health issues?” (link)

It remains to be seen whether NCAA President Charlie Baker’s player compensation proposal will be a positive or negative for Washington State and Oregon State, but JohnCanzano.com’s namesake publisher is “left thinking that some kind of shakeup of the ecosystem is exactly what the Beavers and Cougars need.” Another point of uncertainty moving forward involves the future of the Pac-12 Networks, and Canzano reports former NCAA EVP for Regulatory Affairs Oliver Luck, in his capacity as a consultant for the Pac-2, is focused on that particular topic. “Luck and his team have been charged with exploring whether there’s a business model that would support keeping the Pac-12 Network operating beyond this summer. One question that continues to come up in my conversations with leaders at the 10 departing schools is whether they’ll need production services themselves. They previously relied on the Pac-12 Network, which was linked directly to each campus.” As far as next year’s football schedule, Canzano cites a source who believes the Beavers will try to sell their games a la carte for an estimated value of $5M to $7M total for the season. One source tells him: “I’d think Oregon State might value the exposure more than the money.” In regards to the conference office, Canzano reports Deputy Commissioner Teresa Gould is “part of a small team exploring whether a ‘skeleton crew’ might stay on. It’s unknown if Gould would remain employed.” (link)

The SWAC has announced the creation of the SWAC Student-Athlete Enhancement Initiative, which will provide funding for the continued implementation of enhanced student-athlete support services in the areas of academics, sports medicine and sports information. Additionally, schools can use the funds to help support student-athlete’s mental health initiatives, cover cost of attendance allowances and assist with Alston awards. The league will distribute a total of $4.8M for the endeavor. Commissioner Charles McClelland: “This unique strategic initiative will go a long way towards assisting our league with making significant strides as it relates to enhancing our member institutions’ student-athlete support services areas, while simultaneously enhancing the overall student-athlete experience through an increased offering of impactful resources and high-level supplemental support.” (link)

CAA Commissioner Joe D’Antonio joins The Add Drop Podcast and explains the thinking behind changing from the Colonial Athletic Association to the Coastal Athletic Association: “Approximately three and a half years ago, we started down a path of wanting to make sure that, in terms of the longevity of the conference, we were creating a model that was going to be both sustainable and competitive in the ever changing world of college athletics. One way in which we did that was through expansion, in which we added five institutions, six if you include the addition of Bryant in football next year. … And through expansion, when you look then at the makeup of the conference, the conference really was up and down the East Coast, so it was no longer this conference that was centric just to Virginia and North Carolina – it was much broader than that. So we looked at the name change as a subtle last step in a very, very long process. I think we wanted to be able to keep the CAA logo and the acronym because we thought that had some power behind it and we were able to accomplish both things.” Asked whether this is the CAA he envisioned, D’Antonio responded: “Well, it's what I think we envisioned it would be as it relates to the fact that we brought in five, and now with Bryant six, great institutions into the conference. So that part is 100% envisioned. What the future holds, I don't know if anybody has a crystal ball for that because we are in an ever changing landscape within the industry and within the business.” (link)

While the industry continues to evolve rapidly, Big Sky Commissioner Tom Wistrcill tells JohnCanzano.com that “in the Big Sky, we’re really proud. We know who we are and we’re comfortable with that. All the stories out there — the never-ending chase for money, ‘We gotta pay kids more money’ and ‘We need more NIL money for the collective’…that just doesn’t exist for us. We certainly have our eyes open to what’s going on, but that’s not us. … The Big Sky is a really good place for people to play the sport they love.” (link)

Kansas City’s plans to build a new 5,000-seat volleyball and basketball arena are on hold after RFPs came back with higher than expected costs. UMKC Vice Chancellor of Finance and Administration Sean Reeder says the university isn't shelving the project and plans to push forward after conducting a feasibility study in the coming months. Reeder adds: “Based on current specifications, an analysis of the proposals showed that the proposed private development included in the plans wouldn’t generate enough revenue to cover project costs.” The current RFP will remain open while the university completes its analysis in the Spring of 2024.
