American introduced new AD JM Caparro today, and during his remarks, Caparro said: “To be able to serve student-athletes at such a prestigious university, with a prioritized focus on high-end academics and athletics in a united conference like the Patriot League, was the reason I got into college athletics in the first place. I promise to lead this department through the values that have helped define who I am today: family, integrity, trust, humility and communication. I will work tirelessly to help provide the necessary resources for our student-athletes and our coaches to be able to compete at their highest levels, and I promise to be a valuable ambassador and a key partner to the university. Together, the vision for our department will be simple. We're going to put the student-athletes at the forefront of every decision that we make. We're going to compete in the classroom and on the playing field, and we're going to be extremely active in the community. If we do these things consistently, we will develop future leaders that the university will be proud of and provide the best possible experience for our student-athletes. (link)

The debate over student-athlete employment is leading some federal lawmakers to seek compromise, according to Bloomberg Law’s Diego Areas Munhoz and Parker Purifoy, who note: “Even in the Democratic-controlled Senate, lawmakers are trying to balance their support for unions with concerns over the fallout of designating college athletes as employees under various federal labor and employment laws.” For example, Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) recently explained: “What I’m considering is the possibility that athletes could choose representatives to bargain for them without becoming employees. It could be a union representative. They could unionize but without being employees. … I’m hearing from coaches and athletic departments; they think it’s a terrible idea. A college president regarded it as an anathema.” Additionally, Blumenthal says student-athletes have told him that they oppose being considered employees. Meanwhile, congressional intervention is increasingly likely, according to Munhoz and Purifoy, who explain: “The easiest path forward for the hybrid model advocated by Blumenthal would be to classify the players as employees under the National Labor Relations Act but not the Fair Labor Standards Act.” West Virginia professor/former NLRB attorney Anne Marie Lofaso believes that approach still fails student-athletes. “If you don’t want them to get minimum wage, overtime, and workers compensation, then fine. But at least be open about it. This middle ground is still just hurting the players. It’s not a middle ground. It’s a concession to big business.” (link) 

SBJ’s Ben Portnoy takes a look at whether combining the men’s and women’s Final Fours is in the offing, and Big East Commissioner Val Ackerman voices her support: “Take Grand Slam tennis — Wimbledon, the U.S. Open, the Australian Open, the French Open — think about how ludicrous it would be at this stage to separate out any of those events [between] men and women. They’re made better together. Basketball would be made better together…if we were all in the same place, and not having sponsors and fans and NCAA brass and dignitaries having to choose. But that’s what we’re doing, we’re asking people to choose.” Kosner Media President John Kosner agrees: “What happens [now] is you have double the time and resources to have a smaller event. Those things fit beautifully together. [The NCAA has] chosen not to do it at this time. We think that’s a mistake.” Still, there are logistical challenges, as Portnoy points out that “cities that could handle the influx of fans for both events are few and far between.” Additionally, there’s the question of venue. The men have played in an NFL stadium each year since 1997, and Portnoy suggests that “it’s conceivable the men’s event could continue in a football stadium, with the women’s game held in a local NBA arena, though the optics of such a decision would likely not be well received by the general public.” To that end, ESPN analyst Jay Bilas remarks: “Women’s basketball does not need the men’s Final Four to elevate it. It’s already elevated to that level. … To me, if you put them together, does it elevate everybody? Or does it diminish one versus the other? It’s an unnecessary comparison if you do it that way.” Meanwhile, NCAA SVP of Basketball Dan Gavitt points out that “any consideration now would have to be early in the next decade, but we’re always going to continue to think creatively and consider all alternatives.” (link)

The Athletic’s Chris Vannini explains the main reason for not holding a Group of 5 football playoff is that it wouldn’t be as valuable as the College Football Playoff, and G5 schools don’t want to give up the money they receive through the CFP. Also, “nobody wants to voluntarily declare themselves as second-class, which is what a G5-only playoff would look like right now. Schools want to sell the dream of making the big CFP. Remember, the 12-team CFP this year will be the first time in college football history a G5 team truly has a guaranteed seat at the table and a chance to play for it all.” That said, Vannini acknowledges incoming AAC Commissioner Tom Pernetti last week talked about “maverick postseason ideas” and seemed open to a G5 playoff. “Pernetti doesn’t take over until June, and conferences’ agreements with bowl games would be an obstacle. Opt-outs and transfers have also decimated the available rosters for postseason games outside the CFP, so it might be a pipe dream to set up another tournament taking place during that chaotic few weeks. But with Fox’s new NIT-rival basketball tournament now official, these could be the kinds of things that get discussed.” (link)

Towson AD Steve Eigenbrot joins Citybiz to discuss all things Tigers Athletics, including the plans to add 10 additional scholarships next year in baseball, field hockey, track, both golf programs and gymnastics. “It was something, when I came in, that I saw from the outside that there's an opportunity for us to do this a little bit better, making sure that we can be competitive in some of those sports. … I don't know that competitive excellence will be instantaneous once you get those scholarships. It’s all about kind of catching up to some of our CAA peers. So, just having the scholarships in and of themselves, it may take another minute there after that to make sure we have the right people in the scholarships and some of the underclassmen can develop and mature. But that's something I'm really excited about, and I think a great commentary on institutional alignment and support for the department.” Eigenbrot also notes that “from a capital perspective, some of the more obvious things we're really excited about are that we have $3.5M of state funding to finish out our academic center which is in the fieldhouse of the building that's connected to the United Stadium. There’s going to be another renovation to that building. The $3.5M we contribute to probably somewhere between a $10M and $14M dollar renovation, I’m hoping to break ground on that next spring.” More from Eigenbrot. (link)

Minnesota and Visit St. Paul plan to “put in bids for future Frozen Fours,” according to Gophers Senior Assoc. AD Tom McGinnis, who expects the next bid cycle to cover 2029 to possibly 2031. There has been talk of changing the NCAA regional format to move games from campuses to neutral sites, but if that changes, McGinnis says that Minnesota would be interested. (link)

+ Kentucky Men’s Basketball HC Mark Pope’s five-year deal starts with a salary of $5M and increases by $250K each year. Additionally, Pope can earn one-year extensions with every Sweet 16 appearance as long as there are no more than five years remaining on the contract. Those extensions will also trigger $500K raises. Pope will also earn $100K for an SEC regular season championship, $50K for an SEC Tournament title, $25K for a team GPA of 3.0 or greater and $25K for a team APR score of at least 975. He can also secure a $500K bonus with a national championship, $250K for a Final Four, $100K for an Elite Eight and $50K for making the Sweet 16. Overall, Pope can earn a maximum bonus of $700K each year. Should UK let Pope go without cause, the school would owe him 75% of his remaining salary. Should Pope  leave for another opportunity, he would owe the Wildcats 33% of his remaining salary. That number drops to 20% if Wildcats AD Mitch Barnhart is no longer the AD. (link)

The numbers being reported concerning Kansas’ NIL war chest for men’s hoops have been exaggerated, according to Jayhawks AD Bill Self, who says: “It’s a different world. What you read in NIL and stuff like that is so full of crap. People actually believe that we have $7.1M in NIL. That was reported the other day. If we had had $7.1M in NIL we would have (Kevin) Durant and LeBron (James) suiting up for us. I read something the other day that people said we had $4.1 or $4.2, whatever it was, million dollars in NIL. I wish. If we had that we would have the exact same thing as what I said with LeBron and Durant. … We have a good (NIL) program. We have so many generous people that have bent over backwards to make sure we’re competitive. But guys, cut those numbers in half.” Speaking to the crowd at the season-ending KU hoops banquet, Self went on to remark: “NIL in theory is good. It’s also the way (of) the world that’s not so good too, just be very candid with you. If we want to play with the big boys, then we’ve got to play the game and we have to participate. We need your help to do so and it is appreciated. But that is a key component in our success moving forward.” (link)

Ole Miss’ spring football game featured Joey Chestnut scarfing down hot dogs, sororities competing in a tug-of-war competition, and a dunk contest between players and CBS’ John Talty observes: “On a beautiful, 80-degree day inside Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, this looked like the future of spring games: Show very little actual football, focus on the fun and try to escape without any injuries. There would be no opportunity to over-analyze how well the Ole Miss backup quarterback looked, as many fanbases will surely do following other spring games.” Rebels HC Lane Kiffin acknowledges as much: "Really, the value of spring games, in my opinion, is overrated because you don't show many plays on offense or defense. Most people don't unless they are trying to win the fans over or TV over with the game. You really don't get a whole lot out of it." While Ole Miss didn’t release the game’s official attendance, the “feeling was that it easily exceeded anything experienced during recent spring games,” per Talty, who adds: “It didn't hurt that Ole Miss allowed students 21-years-and-older to bring in alcohol and sit behind one of the end zones to try to recreate the environment of right field at a baseball game in Swayze Field.” Meanwhile, Kiffin says he hopes other schools don’t copy the Rebels’ format. “I would like people to keep playing the spring game so we can watch all their players play in spring.” (link)

In case you missed this morning's D1.ticker edition…

The idea of creating a super league in college football could work in 2031, according to CBS’ Dennis Dodd, who reports that was “one conclusion reached after CBS Sports spoke with sources at the Final Four in Glendale, Arizona, the past several days soliciting opinions of stakeholders.” Dodd also observes that the idea floated by College Sports Tomorrow could be the prelude to a “showdown against a future trying to be created by the Big Ten and SEC.” West Virginia President Gordon Gee, a member of the CST group tells Dodd: "I do not believe that leaving it just to commissioners and athletic directors [is the way to go], because when you do, you do not get the view of [the university as a whole]. I think the university presidents have been the root of the problem here. We have ignored. We have not been engaged. We have not paid enough attention. And I am the poster child because…I paid a lot of these coaches millions of dollars. We just thought life was going to go on. We should have been thinking more progressively for a long period of time. My view is that to stimulate the conversation, get enough university presidents together to solve this problem." Dodd goes on to note there are “two look-ins in the new CFP contract that account for more realignment before 2031. Those look-ins probably didn't account for the emergence of a ‘super league’ but could ostensibly be used for it. There's already speculation that a ‘super league’ is a look at the next round of consolidation. Instead of realignment, conferences would ‘cut’ existing members not up to standard.” More from Dodd.

Kentucky AD Mitch Barnhart on what he can say about the recent lawsuit filed against former Swimming & Diving HC Lars Jorgensen: “I can’t. It’s under litigation. All I’d say: We always want to have safety for our student-athletes, our coaches and our staff, but other than that, I can’t say anything.” (link); Roughly 16K Kentucky fans packed Rupp Arena for the introduction of new Men’s Basketball HC Mark Pope, according to The Athletic’s Kyle Tucker, who notes that figure doesn’t include the throng of people on the floor. Kentucky Sports Radio Founder Matt Jones notes: “UK had no idea Rupp would be packed. They were expecting like 6-8,000 people. To have 22,000 and turn people away…amazing. Kentucky Basketball fans wanted that old feeling of their program back. They got it today and it was magical.” (link, link)

Playfly Sports Properties President Christy Hedgpeth talks with AthleticDirectorU’s Tai M. Brown about Playfly Sports’ value proposition within intercollegiate athletics and how her team is disrupting the status quo among multimedia rights holders in the industry. Hedgpeth and Brown also discuss momentum for women’s sports, the potential for continued revenue generation in that market and lots more. Hedgpeth on why the sports gambling industry can be beneficial for college sports: “I understand the trepidation around this topic, but I really don’t see college sports as being different ultimately in how it should deal with sports betting versus pro sports. I was at the NBA starting in 2014, and that’s really when Adam Silver wrote an op-ed piece in the New York Times about how it's much better to embrace sports betting on a legalized basis rather than having it happen in the shadows.” Regardless of one’s stance, sports gambling is happening, “so why not really embrace those partners…and really embrace what they can bring. And it’s all got to be with responsible gambling messaging certainly.” As women’s sports continues to grow, Hedgpeth cites her time in the WNBA and says it’s not just on owners to increase support. “It's really about company brands stepping up. You've got a company like Ally now who is committed to investing 50% in women's sports and 50% in men's sports. I’ve worked with companies like Google in the past who are really focused on women's sports so I think companies need to step up. Media companies like ESPN definitely have and so it's all about exposure. I truly believe the product itself is exceptional, it's just really about promoting it, getting exposure and then from there it really becomes a self-sustaining product.” (link)

SBJ’s Mollie Cahillane pulls back the curtain on ESPN’s Women’s Final Four studio show, noting the pregame version before last week’s national championship averaged 2.9M viewers on ABC while the postgame averaged 1.4M. ESPN VP of Production Kate Jackson: “I don’t think anybody could have anticipated that it was going to mushroom explode like it did like this. We’ve maxed out the thing, there’s no room for any more trucks in there. … This is a sport that’s just going to keep growing. What do we need to re-imagine? What do we need to think about mostly from a structural technical standpoint? How do we need to approach this in a different way so we can do more, serve more and just continue to be more for this championship?” ESPN had more than 350 credentialed staff on-site, and that number increases to over 400 when accounting for remote teams in Bristol and Charlotte. Jackson: “It’s bigger than almost anything else we do, outside of maybe the Super Bowl. College Football Playoff is maybe a little bit more, but you have to remember that those cameras have to cover an entire football field and not just an inside arena. In terms of the number of trucks that they have and things like that, this is probably pretty similar.” Jackson also talks about the intentionality associated with having five women of color present the show: “It’s really important that the people who talk about the sport reflect the people who play in the sport. It was absolutely something that we thought about, but it was not a deciding factor. [The best people] go in the best positions, and these were the best people.” More. (link)

Now this is cool: Miami (FL) Women’s Basketball HC Tricia Cullop left a parting gift for Ginny Boggess, her successor at Toledo. The note, tucked in the drawer of Cullop’s former desk, was short and simple: “I hope you enjoy this job as much as I did. Here’s my phone number, if you ever need anything. I’ll be there for you.” Cullop tells the Toledo Blade’s Dave Briggs: “I hope they know I meant that.” Boggess: “You walk into that office for the first time and it's empty and a shell of the space that once held a very prominent figure. To open the drawer, and see a letter from Coach…when you sit down and read a handwritten letter, you just pause. We don’t see that often these days, right? It was a moment of gratitude and gave me an even deeper realization of how important this transition is to everybody involved. It meant a lot to me.” Briggs calls the letter a “notable gush of fresh air” and further proof that Cullop means it when she says she wants what is best for Toledo. (link)

Texas AD Chris Del Conte in February announced UT has pledged $10M to the School of Social Work to “help fight systemic homelessness,” and the Austin American-Statesman’s Bridget Grumet reports the $10M “won’t come from the athletic department’s budget. It will need to be raised from donors, ‘including from Athletics donors who support the mission of social work’ over an unspecified period of time.” According to UT Asst. VP for University Communications Mike Rosen, the funding may not specifically address homelessness, telling Grumet: “Specific uses will be determined. While homelessness was mentioned during the (town hall) meeting you reference, it is just one of many critical social problems that the School of Social Work helps to solve, and the plan approved by the University provides the Dean the necessary latitude to strategically distribute support.” When announcing the School of Social Work’s relocation plans in a March 2023 email to students and faculty, Dean Allan Cole said the school’s old site would be “utilized as a part of Athletics’ ongoing facility needs” and added: “Through their existing resources and philanthropic gifts, UT Athletics will provide our school with considerable support for faculty, staff, students, and programs for decades to come.” Grumet: “But UT has never put a dollar amount to that promise nor outlined how the money would be used. … Still, in the unredacted passages [of emails obtained via open records requests], Cole says in January 2023 that he and Del Conte ‘have agreed on language’ for a memorandum of understanding.” (link)

DePaul will modify its plans for a new $60M basketball practice facility to assuage concerns from Lincoln Park community members about the planned demolition of several historic buildings in the area. Blue Demons AD DeWayne Peevy: “To help offset the necessary loss of buildings on Sheffield Avenue, DePaul will historically preserve and restore several iconic campus buildings to benefit the entire community. “In addition to voicing preservation concerns, the [Neighborhood Advisory Committee] requested design enhancements to ensure the practice facility’s proposed façade more closely matches the aesthetic of the neighborhood and included more emphasis on sustainability.” Enhancements include working with the Vincentian Order to landmark the jointly owned Byrne Hall building on Kenmore Ave; repairing O’Connell Hall’s exterior; installing solar panels on the roof of the proposed facility, decreasing emissions by 10%; and decreasing the facility footprint to allow for wider sidewalks and more landscaping.

Several parents of USC football student-athletes have “expressed frustration with their son’s NIL pay at USC – in amount, organization of payment or feeling valuations were made in recruiting that didn’t align with their eventual earnings,” according to the Orange County Register’s Luca Evans. One parent explains: “It’s like a handshake. And when you handshake, and it’s Lincoln Riley on the other side and USC, you think to yourself, ‘Well, they got money, right? We’re not going to get (expletive). … USC’s good for it, you’re going to get it.’ And then you’re shocked when you don’t.” Meanwhile, now that Tennessee’s lawsuit against the NCAA has resulted in a hold on several NIL restrictions, “USC looks primed to shift into turbo,” Evans continues. Spencer Harris, executive director of the Trojans-focused House of Victory collective tells Evans: “If we can’t be in the conversations and educate properly, and even be the ones having the conversations, it’s going to result in issues and misinterpretation of value and expectations. So I do think, with some of these rules evolving, it’ll benefit some of these problems that have occurred.” Lots more. (link); Heitner Legal founder Darren Heitner also weighs in: “I have seen a USC NIL collective contract with a ‘maximum compensation amount,’ but zero was guaranteed. Instead, money would be paid out upon completion of deliverables only if those deliverables were requested by the collective in its sole discretion. Not optimal for a player.” (link)
