Also of note on the committee: current Women’s Basketball HC Jim Crowley, VP of Advancement Mike Pressimone & FAR Tracy Schrems. (link)

Sportico’s Eben Novy-Williams and Daniel Libit obtained College Sports Tomorrow’s pitch deck for its proposed Super League, which was produced by TurnkeyZRG, and note the “document contains a number of previously unreported details, including a specific plan for sharing broadcast revenue with players, a 40-game spring football ‘festival,’ and a preliminary look at how the Super League’s 70 permanent members might be arranged in seven geographically aligned leagues. Specifically, the seven permanent 10-team divisions include every Power 5 school plus Notre Dame, and are organized geographically: west, southwest, plains, midwest, northeast, south and southeast. The eighth division includes 10 schools from what the deck calls the “Under League,” which rotates every year. Novy-Williams and Libit note that “eight of the 10 are relegated each season and replaced by the eight teams that play in the Under League’s playoff. The rest of the Under League is organized in eight different divisions of seven teams, which are not detailed in the deck.” The pitch also proposes that broadcast NIL money set aside for players would be distributed as follows: 5% to all rostered freshmen, 15% to all rostered sophomores, 30% for all rostered juniors and 50% for all rostered seniors and graduate students. “The suggested ‘NIL Roster Cap’ would mandate that individual NIL payments for football players at a single school not exceed those earned via group licensing and broadcast NIL (BNIL) deals.” Exceeding the cap would result in the loss of transfer spots. However, if a school were to fall below 80% of a pre-established ‘NIL Roster Floor’ for two consecutive seasons, it would be relegated to the Under League until it could sustain a full season above the floor. Rosters would have an 85-player max, 70 of which could be on scholarship, and the 15-week season would include 14 games. Lots more. (link)

Akron President Gary Miller talks with Extra Points publisher Matt Brown about how athletics factors into enrollment and notes there is “really no way to directly tell exactly how your DI athletic program affects your enrollment, but there are a few indirect things that we look at. For one, when we look at the students that we accept to Akron who decide not to come here, and you look at where those students end up attending…the vast majority of them attend another FBS school. … This makes us believe that the student’s orientation at the beginning was for a school like us. Another thing to look at is when you look at the major private donors to universities, all three of the ones where I’ve been a president (UW-Green Bay, UNC Wilmington and Akron), about 70% of them also give to athletics. A large proportion of those came to the university in the first place with their generosity because of athletics. … The other thing to think about is that there are lots of communities like Akron that love Akron athletics. Athletics becomes a key part of the university’s engagement with the community.” While going on a deep March Madness run can help a university with enrollment, Miller notes it’s not a reliable strategy. “It’s kind of like a bonus.” Miller also believes there is a loss of connection happening in college sports now due to the transient nature of teams. “[College sports] is becoming more of a TV product than a local event, having to do with people that you’re connected with and are going to be connected with for a long time. “That, in my view, is a real danger to college sports. Ultimately, it becomes unconnected to the university.” (link)

Washington State will join the Mountain West as an affiliate member in baseball and women’s swimming for two years, beginning next season. The Cougars will be eligible for postseason conference championships and awards in both sports and the league’s automatic NCAA bid in baseball. WSU’s addition will increase the number of MW schools that sponsor baseball to eight, while the addition of women’s swimming will give the conference 10 women’s swimming programs. (link)

Athletic departments at the Pac-12’s 10 public universities finished last year with an $81M shortfall, with only five schools reporting an operating surplus, according to The Mercury News’ Jon Wilner, who notes that figure includes $138.2M in campus support through direct transfers and student fees. Remove that campus support and the cumulative shortfall is $219.5M. Furthermore, Wilner notes when Stanford’s data is added – the Cardinal was $33.3M in the red without campus support – the total shortfall for 11 athletic departments climbs to $252.8M. Further still, that $252.8M shortfall does not include an internal loan of $31.6M to Arizona athletics from the university. Wilner asks Smith College (DIII) economics professor Andrew Zimbalist how much campus support is too much, and Zimbalist notes: “That’s a complicated question. Schools subsidize a lot of activities at universities. The question is whether the size is proportionate to the importance.” Sports Business Group Founder/USC adjunct professor David Carter tells Wilner that “schools need to soberly address the role sports is intended to play on campus,” but adds: “You could make the case that the transfers (from campus) are more of a marketing expense because athletic departments are major ambassadors for the universities. Administrations don’t look at $25M like it’s money specifically for branding, but they inherently believe that it’s important to have strong athletics.” More from Wilner. (link)

Alabama and CLC agree to a 15-year extension to their licensing partnership. Crimson Tide AD Greg Byrne: “We are thrilled to continue our long-time partnership with CLC, which has been a highly successful relationship that has helped us deliver the best merchandise and marketing for our passionate Crimson Tide fans. Our collaboration with CLC has ensured that we are included in first-to-market opportunities and new strategies that help us elevate the Alabama brand in the market.” (link)

As of April 12, Louisville has sold more than 670 new men’s basketball season tickets. For comparison, UL sold 539 season tickets between March 18, 2022, and May 26, 2022, heading into former HC Kenny Payne’s first year. The Cardinals’ season-ticket numbers dropped from 12,159 to 10,743 between the 2022-23 and 2023-24 seasons, according to the Courier-Journal’s Brooks Holton, who notes that during Payne’s tenure, UL drew an average scanned ticket attendance of 6,504 in the 23K-seat Yum Center.

+ BYU will name Phoenix Suns AC Kevin Young as its next Men’s Basketball HC. CBS’ Matt Norlander: “Process is not yet through, but one source said BYU is ready to put a deal on the table worth approximately $30M and for seven years.” Norlander also reports Young, who was a finalist for the Brooklyn Nets job, will stay with the Suns through the end of the season. Also notable from Norlander: “Young was taken by BYU's courtship not just because of the hefty contract offer, but because ‘the NBA grind is real and cutting his season down was a factor,’ according to one source. While college recruiting is a year-long grind in and of itself, BYU's range of prospects is much more limited than most other high-major programs due to its LDS Church ties and honor code. Plus, Young has small children, and the opportunity to move away from the NBA lifestyle and spend less time on the road to be with his family was a swaying factor.” (link); Official announcement from BYU.

Michigan and five individuals who currently or previously worked for its football program have reached an agreement with NCAA enforcement staff on recruiting violations and coaching activities by non-coaching staff members as well as the appropriate penalties for those violations. One former coach did not participate in the agreement, and that portion of the case will be considered separately by the Committee on Infractions, after which the committee will release its full decision. The agreed-upon violations involve impermissible in-person recruiting contacts during a COVID-19 dead period, impermissible tryouts, and the program exceeding the number of allowed countable coaches when non-coaching staff members engaged in on- and off-field coaching activities. The negotiated resolution also involved the school's agreement that the underlying violations demonstrated a head coach responsibility violation and the former football head coach failed to meet his responsibility to cooperate with the investigation. Penalties include three years of probation for the school, a fine and recruiting restrictions in alignment with the Level I-Mitigated classification for the school. The participating individuals also agreed to one-year show-cause orders consistent with the Level II-Standard and Level II-Mitigated classifications of their respective violations. ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg: “Per NCAA policy, Michigan is not identifying the five current or former staff members, but a spokesman confirmed to ESPN that ‘no further game restrictions will be served by anyone who is still on the U-M staff.’” (link, link)

North Dakota has received a $6.5M gift from Sanford Health to support endowments in sports medicine and behavioral health and an ongoing construction project. Most of the gift – $4M – will go toward completing the $23M in additions to the Fritz Pollard Athletic Center, which broke ground last year. The remainder will fund scholarships and programs in the university’s medical school, nursing school and liberal arts college. UND President Andy Armacost: “This is a game-changing gift that will be felt by so many students across our entire campus. It’s what I like to call an attractor: something that will attract both students and student-athletes to our campus.” (link)

The city of Cedar Falls has committed $3M to support Northern Iowa’s renovation of the UNI-Dome. The funds will be distributed over the next three years. Panthers Interim AD Bob Bowlsby: "The UNI-Dome has been the site of hundreds of iconic events over its 50 year lifespan. The venue continues to be a beacon that has attracted visitors to Cedar Falls and the Cedar Valley. We are grateful for the support of the citizens of Cedar Falls as well as Mayor Laudick and the Cedar Falls City Council. With this support, we can all look forward to a bright and vibrant future for the UNI-Dome." (link)

Drexel will add a new turf field and bubble to the Vidas Athletics Complex during the 2024-25 academic year.

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

Duke AD Nina King and North Carolina AD Bubba Cunningham join the Beyond the Curve podcast with former U.S. Senator Richard Burr (R-NC) to discuss the future of NIL. Asked where the industry started to lose its grasp on the direction of NIL, King remarks: “I'm not quite sure you can pinpoint exactly, but I would say we didn't move forward fast enough…and we've been so reactive for so long that trying to play catchup and then really innovate and move forward has been a challenge.” Cunningham agrees and adds: “It’s not necessarily the growth of the commercial activity that's the problem, it’s the use of the money – the skyrocketing salaries and the great facilities that we've built. It really has created a big disproportion between the educational value that the students are receiving and the salaries associated with coaching the same position. I do think that the commercial activity has grown exponentially in the last 10 to 15 years and the disparity between the value of a scholarship for students and the salary for the coach has just gotten so extraordinary that it drove us to this position.” Both King and Cunningham caution that revenue-sharing could put women’s sports and Olympic sports at risk, but Cunningham acknowledges that “I also feel like crying wolf that we said for 50 years we can't afford to do this and the money continues to rise. So, I think we are at a point now where if we are truly revenue-sharing like pro sports do, I think we're going to be challenged. … This is the gray area that we're going to need either guidance from the federal government, guidance from the Department of Education, tax advice – we're not sure where NIL’s going to fit into an educational environment.” Lots more in the full podcast.

Kennyhertz Perry attorney Mit Winter says the vast majority of power conference schools have at least engaged in internal discussions about how they will operate their athletic programs under an employment model, and Winter asserts that preparing for such a paradigm shift is not only wise, it’s necessary. He tells On3’s Eric Prisbell: "It would be akin to athletic director/president malpractice to not at least be doing this. With respect to actually spending time seriously modeling it out, that number is not as large. I'd say less than half. But I think it would be smart to start spending time on this as well. … If a school is not ready when that time likely comes, it could take a long time to catch up." (link)

Iowa AD Beth Goetz explains her vision for the Hawkeyes’ open Deputy AD position, noting it will be more externally focused than it was before. “They won’t be as focused on running sort of the day-to-day in the department although they’ll play a role in that to be sure.” Goetz points out the refocus is a result of “evaluating what the landscape is and then also what are the strengths on our staff. … From a skill set standpoint, you’re looking at people who have backgrounds in either fundraising, ticketing, marketing, sponsorship, those type of things.” Goetz adds: “Wanted to make sure we had some additional hands and additional expertise to really partner with [Deputy AD for Revenue and External Relations] Matt [Henderson] in that space to make sure we’re positioning ourselves well for the future.” (link) The D1.dossier for the opening is available.

Arkansas AD Hunter Yurachek talks about the process of hiring Men’s Basketball John Calipari: “He was very thoughtful throughout the process. He disclosed taking his hour-long walk and walking out thinking he’s the Arkansas coach and coming back in an hour thinking he's the Kentucky coach. … I mean he's leaving a really good program and a really good situation. And him and his family were really comfortable in Lexington, Kentucky, so it was not an easy decision for him. But I had to keep pushing gingerly. I didn’t want to push him too much because I didn’t want to push him away, and so I was trying to be respectful of his time. It's like you're waiting for a girl to call you back and keep looking at the phone and looking at the phone. Did I miss a call from him? Did I miss a text message? … And at the same time trying to be respectful of him.” Lots more behind the Hogs+ paywall. (link)

The Athletic’s Richard Deitsch explores how women’s college basketball can carry forward its momentum post-Caitlin Clark and notes the first step is to continue increasing visibility. To that end, ESPN SVP of Programming and Acquisitions Nick Dawson says: “What I am focused on with my team is over the next couple of years, can we get it to a better place where we have more consistency in our offering of regular-season women’s college basketball on premier platforms throughout the season. We’ve made small strides there over the past four or five years, but it’s still a little bit spotty throughout the regular season in terms of when the opportunity exists. How do we build a better momentum-building and recurring and consistent platform for the sport, especially through the months of January, February, early March as it leads into the tournament?” Asked whether there are plans to move all Final Four matchups to ABC, Dawson says: “As of right now, our intention is to continue with what we did — the championship game on ABC in that kind of late afternoon Sunday slot, which from a potential viewership perspective our research team has proven to us that there’s not much difference in terms of potential upside between that window and in a prime-time window.” As for the semifinal games, “nothing is off the table long-term. We’ll continue to have those conversations year after year to assess how the distribution world is changing.” (link)

Desser Sports President Ed Desser and Kosner Media President John Kosner make an extended case for combining the men’s and women’s Final Fours rather than expanding the field size. They argue that to “increase the value of their two basketball crown jewels, the NCAA and its schools should focus on strategically improving what they already have — not diluting it further. While beautifully constructed, the men’s and women’s tournaments, as media properties, have barely changed in decades.” As such, they propose opening the MBB tournament on Saturday/Sunday rather than Thursday/Friday. “Then use Monday/Tuesday late afternoons and evenings for the second round. We also suggest using home arenas for both tournaments for the first weekend — cutting down on travel, ensuring a great atmosphere for TV and rewarding the excellent play of higher seeds during the regular season.” They also suggest updating the TV schedule. “The Duke-NC State regional final drew 15.1M on CBS Sunday at 5:05 p.m. ET. What would it have done at 8 p.m. ET? The South Carolina-Iowa rematch on ESPN drew 18.7M and ended just after 5 p.m. ET. How about if it started on ABC at 8:30 p.m.? All games should be elevated into the best, not best-available, time slots.” Desser and Kosner go on to suggest that for the Final Fours themselves, the “women play Friday/Sunday and the men Saturday/Monday. But the NCAA could also create a Super Saturday with all four semifinals and a Monday night championship doubleheader with prime-time slots for both. Lots more. (link)

Furman officially breaks ground on its $40M Timmons Arena renovation. President Elizabeth Davis: “A renovated Timmons Arena will not only honor and celebrate the Paladins’ storied past but will also create a tremendous home-court advantage for our teams. Timmons will be a jewel on campus for all of our students, faculty, and staff, and it will continue to be a place for the Upstate and Furman communities to gather for basketball, Furman Engaged, graduation, and other events.” During renovations, the Paladins men’s basketball program will play in the Bon Secours Wellness Arena in downtown Greenville, and the women’s team will play most home games at North Greenville University (DII).

In response to a recent Washington Post article calling for increased regulation in the gaming industry, Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe Partner Behnam Dayanim explains that the current regulatory environment around sports betting is antiquated because it “stems from an era when the principal concern was keeping organized crime out of the casino business. But that is really not a concern in this age of gaming respectability, with public companies and shareholder reports. Instead, the focus should be on those issues that are important: responsible gaming, responsible advertising and the like. Railing against gambling is like raging against the weather. It will be with us whether we like it or not. Before legal sports betting, there was illegal sports betting (and there still is – see Shohei Ohtani). What states should do is take a hard look at how they can streamline those regulations that no longer are fit for purpose and examine where new rules may be appropriate.” Dayanim asserts that “adding more regulatory overhead without any relief will…make the licensed industry less competitive – driving more activity to unregulated, offshore actors. … Several states – including my own – have banned college prop bets on the theory that, particularly with amateur athletes, they can lead to abuse. So what happened this past NCAA tournament? Unlicensed offshore books advertised that they were accepting those prop wagers. I would be willing to, ahem, wager that their volume increased substantially as a result.” (link)

Legal Matters…

+ Michigan Football Asst. Director of Player Personnel Denard Robinson has been suspended indefinitely after being arrested for OWI following a single-vehicle crash in Ann Arbor.

+ Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice and SMU student-athlete Teddy Knox are being sued for over $1M in actual damages and $10M in punitive damages by Edvard Petrovskiy and Irina Gromova, who allege Rice and Knox deliberately raced their vehicles at speeds well beyond the posted limits and caused a six-vehicle crash that led to their injuries. The incident occurred in Dallas on March 30, and Rice and Knox are each facing one count of aggravated assault, one count of collision involving serious bodily injury and six counts of collision involving injury. Knox has been suspended by SMU, which indicated in a statement last week it "takes these allegations seriously." Both vehicles were leased in Rice’s name. (link)
