From the latest DIII Presidents Council and Management Council meeting report, the division has moved forward on a partnership with Mental Health First Aid, adding: “The council previously supported funding for this type of partnership. However, instead of an annual cost of $265,000 for two years ($530,000 total), the cost is $5,000 per institution ($2.1 million). The council noted that while the difference is significant, the division has the money in its reserves to cover the cost and that this partnership meets a membership need.” On the cost of livestreaming games for ESPN+, the cost is around $300K annually as opposed to the budgeted $500K per year. Changes around the association’s sports gambling regulations were a topic of discussion, with the Management Council approving noncontroversial legislation to “separate the individual culpability of an involved individual from that of an institution in select cases involving sports wagering.” Noncontroversial legislation passed for the 2026 NCAA Convention included clarifications on the definition of intercollegiate competition as it relates to eligibility, requiring all DIII committee terms be four-years, adding a position on the Committee on Competitive Safeguards and Medical Aspects of Sports for a physician with endocrinology expertise and more. Finally, Stockton AD Anthony Berich and North Park VP for Enrollment Management and Marketing Anthony Scola were appointed to the Management Council. Full report. (link)

NCAA SVP of Business Performance Brian Higgins joins D1.ticker’s Matt Roberts from the 2025 NCAA Convention to provide insight into and the NCAA's comprehensive college sports database that's being built. Higgins gives context and projections on where it is today, what types of decisions will be impacted by the data collected and the impact of sharing with member institutions to generate revenue into untapped audiences. The database currently has over 13.5M fans and Higgins explains: “We needed it so we could effectively and efficiently market all 90 of our championships. I think the NCAA traditionally has done a great job selling tickets to March Madness, men's and women's, but with all the data we have coming in from not just them, but the Frozen Four, wrestling, volleyball, all those sports, taking that data [and] matching it up with some other public sources and other things we can do [will help us] get a great picture” of fans’ profiles. As the NCAA continues to add information to the profiles, Higgins says the main data points are what teams fans follow, what sports they like and where they live. “Over time as we grow we’ll add things like: Were you a student-athlete? Have you refereed college sports? Other things like do you have children? What types of events do you go to? What events do you stream and watch and how can we merge that?” The initial goal is to build the database up to 25M. Lots more on Connect. (link)

Virginia Senator Creigh Deeds (D-Charlottesville) has proposed a bill to amend an existing law that caps the amount of tuition subsidies Virginia public schools can direct toward athletics. According to Sportico’s Daniel Libit and Eben Novy-Williams, the legislation would remove a paragraph that requires any new student fee revenue allocated toward athletics to be matched with a proportionate increase in generated revenue from elsewhere. It also expands the list of expenses that are exempt from the cap’s calculations. The bill also asks the state’s joint legislative audit and review commission to study the impact of its current limitations on student fee revenue “in light of evolving trends in intercollegiate athletics institutions and organizational structures and policy,” and to consider how they impact a school’s ability “to maintain competitiveness” in college sports. The subsidy percentage for DIII members will remain at 89% for those with Football and 92% for those without Football. (link)
