D1.ticker Evening Standard - Thursday, March 13, 2025

NCAA SVP of Basketball Dan Gavitt joins NCAA correspondent Andy Katz and emphasizes that conference tournament games are considered as part of a team’s overall body of work “and what those games are matters. As the committee always says, “it’s who’d you play, it’s where'd you play, it’s how you did. Some of those games played this week in conference tournaments will be Quad 1 games, which will be really important, or Quad 2 games, which will be important as well. Some will be Quad 3 or 4 games that really don't carry the weight of a Quad 1 or Quad 2 result. So, every game matters, every game is counted and, yet, games that are played this week don't take on more significance than games that were played a month ago” – or, Katz adds, in November and December. Gavitt also notes that the selection committee selected 18 at-large teams to make the field on its initial ballot and added eight more from the “under consideration” board for a total of 26, several of which could still earn AQs by winning their conference tournaments. The initial ballot had 35 teams that were under consideration + 18 regular season champions, that were not initially voted in as under-consideration teams, that were added to that group for a total of 53 teams under consideration.

The House implementation team has determined that third-party NIL deals that pay athletes after the July 1 effective date are subject to the clearinghouse, as are third-party NIL deals signed after the settlement’s approval (presumably in April), per Yahoo’s Ross Dellenger. Kennyhertz Perry attorney Mit Winter: “Not new info, but it’s important info for entities deemed ‘associated entities or individuals’ since their deals will be subject to the fair market value analysis. A big issue with this whole process is disclosure. All deals won’t be disclosed, same as now. There is also probably a complaint ready to be filed that will challenge this whole system on antitrust grounds. Could be short-lived.” Heitner Legal Founder Darren Heitner adds: “Also, future athletes didn’t agree to this alternative dispute resolution process nor the FMV analysis. This will go down in flames. … Maybe the hope is to dig as big a hole as possible, which will eventually cause Congress to bail them out.” Winter agrees, adding: “The injunctive relief settlement tries to prevent future athletes from bringing injunctive relief claims. But it won’t prevent them from bringing damages claims. Which would probably be easy to prove when an athlete has a deal for $X but Deloitte says it can only be $Y.” (link)

Idaho State intends to opt out of revenue-sharing for the 2025-26 academic year but opt in the following season. Bengals AD Pauline Thiros explains that opting out “means we are not adopting the more restrictive roster limits that we’ll have to adhere to. We’d like for our coaches to have more time to accommodate that transition without hurting our student athletes. We’ll have two years to make the cuts to our rosters.” Thiros says the sports most impacted by the roster limitations would be soccer, track and field and softball. By waiting a year to adopt those tighter roster limitations, ISU’s coaches will have more time to accommodate the incoming athletes who have already signed to compete at ISU, and to have normal attrition of graduation and expiration of eligibility help pare the rosters without harming athletes. Further, Thiros does not believe waiting a year to opt in will hurt the department in the short term. “We have a lot of high-performing student-athletes that allow us to spread equivalency pretty far anyway. We can still have 85 guys on scholarships, and we’ve been trying to get that for some time.” Meanwhile, Montana State and Sacramento State were the only two Big Sky schools who notified the NCAA of their intent to opt in next school year, although Big Sky football affiliate schools UC Davis and Cal Poly have also confirmed they will opt in. (link)

Albany will not immediately opt into revenue-sharing under the House settlement, according to Great Danes AD Mark Benson, who explains: “Right now, we’re going to opt out, but we’re going to monitor and see what happens around the House settlement. I think there’s a lot of unanswered questions, some of which may be answered by then, some of which may not. … I think right now, the biggest (question) is the roster limits are something that people are concerned about losing opportunities. I think people are hoping that maybe that gets addressed. I’m not sure that it will or not.” Benson also cites concerns about Title IX and the market value of NIL deals as unanswered questions.

Colorado College will opt into the House settlement, according to Tigers AD Lesley Irvine. (link)

The NCAA has issued new guidance concerning eligibility for former JUCO and non-NCAA student-athletes, which “essentially” states that “all players who'd be otherwise out of eligibility but played JUCO/NAIA/etc can play in 2025-26 EXCEPT those whose only season of non-NCAA competition was 2020-21 (COVID year),” according to Sports Illustrated’s Kevin Sweeney, who adds: “That means guys like (Iowa State’s) Curtis Jones, (Auburn’s) Denver Jones, (Bradley’s) Duke Deen and (Clemson’s) Jaeden Zackery are done. Most others, like (Auburn’s) Chad Baker-Mazara, (Vanderbilt’s) Jason Edwards, (UAB’s) Yaxel Lendeborg and many other high-level names will have another year.” (link)

Marquette Men’s Basketball HC Shaka Smart has refused to negotiate with NIL agents this spring, telling players and recruits they’ll get the same money from Marquette’s collective regardless of representation, according to Front Office Sports’ Dennis Young, who adds: “No current Marquette player lists an agent on their social media pages, and a scan of their RealGM pages does not have an agent listed for any player. Several players list a contact for Madison Dunker, Marquette’s NIL GM. Dunker works for Altius Sports Partners, a consulting firm that helps colleges with NIL strategy. She directed requests for comment to Marquette’s athletic department.” Heitner Legal Founder Darren Heitner tells Young there is a “0% chance” any other top-25 or power conference team employs a similar strategy and adds that refusing to deal with a player’s existing agent could raise legal issues – though Young does not identify what those legal issues are. (link)

Prospective men’s basketball HCs are less interested in salary and other considerations than they once were, according to USA Today’s Dan Wolken, who is told by a source: “The first question agents are asking is, what are they committed to in revenue-share this year and beyond? It always used to be, 'What do I have in facilities and recruiting and assistant salary pool?’ But now it’s, 'How much can I spend on player acquisition?'” Another person familiar with coaching searches adds: “It’s the first thing coaches want to know. If you’re at a school spending $3M to $4M on the roster and you're looking at a perceived 'better' job that isn’t going to spend that much, you’re not going to take it.” Wolken observes that may explain the hires made by Miami (FL), Florida State and Utah. “While all three decisions can be justified on their basketball merits given those coaches’ résumés and connections to the schools, it’s also true that administrations came to the decision fairly quickly they were not going to be in the market for sitting head coaches with track records of power-conference success.” Meanwhile, one coach believes wealthy schools in the Big Ten and SEC will still “find a way” to funnel more money to players than what’s outlined in the House settlement. A source cites Louisville’s hire of Pat Kelsey as a potential model for the future: “There was a lot of talk last year that they were going to reset the (salary) market. Instead, they hired Pat Kelsey for ($2.3M) and used the rest of the money to build the roster to give him a running start.” (link)

Extra Points publisher Matt Brown goes over several GM contracts to find out what the job actually entails and finds the profile is “all over the map” in football and basketball. “Some programs are clearly targeting their GM to serve in more of a fundraising/development/connections role, so hiring a former reporter or famous alum would make sense. Others appear to be trying to replicate the NFL model, targeting folks with deep experience in salary cap management and player evaluations. Even other schools are simply moving staff from existing player personnel or coaching roles into a GM position. And these folks, almost without exception, report to the head football coach. Some large programs, like Georgia, are openly talking about not wanting to hire a GM, because the head football coach would always need to be deeply involved in roster management decisions.” At some institutions, GMs are operating without contracts, as is the case with UC San Diego GM Bill Carr, who is listed as an assistant coach who earns $200K per year (which Brown notes is on the high end for a non-A4 basketball GM). Meanwhile, Brown notes it’s not only non-Power 4, non-football GMs working without contract, as Boise State Football GM Brandon Jones is also currently categorized as an “at will” employee, and “Illinois, a big-budget, Big Ten, athletic department, is another school whose GM doesn’t have a formal contract.” More.

John Feinstein, longtime Washington Post contributor and bestselling author of several books, including A Season on the Brink, for which he embedded with former Indiana Men’s Basketball HC Bob Knight, has passed away at the age of 69. (link)

Texas has self-reported five NCAA violations related to impermissible sports wagering between July 11 and Nov. 4 of 2024. The documents, acquired by the Austin American-Statesman’s David Eckert via a public records request, listed two football players, a non-student-athlete associated with the women’s tennis program, a student assistant and an uncategorized athletic department employee as the violators. The names were redacted, but Eckert notes the five individuals totaled $14,885.76 in impermissible wagers with PrizePicks, a “daily fantasy” sports website where users can wager money on athletes’ statistical performances. Traditional sports betting remains illegal in Texas, but daily fantasy sites like PrizePicks are legal. The transactions were flagged by IC360’s ProhiBet, and the assistant’s role with the department was terminated. One of the football players was declared ineligible for competition, but Texas confirmed he was later reinstated and required to repay the value of his wagering winnings to the charity of his choice. The other football student-athlete described a previous “problem” with sports wagering and sought help from his parents to quit. He placed about $9,600 in impermissible wagers while at Texas. Of his 67 wagers, two were placed on Texas’ basketball teams. UT did not impose a penalty against him because he left Texas and stopped playing college football, but the Longhorns did administer additional sports wagering education to the football team. (link)

Coyle flew back in secrecy to Minneapolis late Wednesday to fire Johnson.” One source tells Boone and Norlander: “It was ruthless.” Coyle in a statement: "I met with Ben in-person early this morning when the team returned to Minneapolis from the Big Ten Men's Basketball Tournament and informed him that we were making a change in leadership. I thanked him for his dedication and for guiding the program, one he cares deeply about, for the last four years. Ben is a terrific person, and we wish him well. These decisions are difficult and are made after careful consideration and evaluation.

Before he leaves, CBS’ Dennis Dodd shares one last scoop: “Army and Navy's request to add a 13th regular-season game has been tabled by the Division I Football Oversight Committee.” The schools had hoped to add an additional game to help with not only their CFP resumes, but also their standing in the AAC, but Dodd reports there was "no support" from the Oversight Committee to honor the request. A source tells Dodd that granting the schools' request would be "a legislative beast" to get approved because of the impact on the regular season. (link)

The Department of Education’s research and civil-rights units were particularly hard hit in this week’s mass layoff of around 1,300 people. The Chronicle of Higher Education reports that government officials declined to share breakdowns of who lost their jobs, pointing instead to a news release indicating all of the department’s divisions are affected by the cuts, “with some divisions requiring significant reorganization.” However, tallies of fired union members were available, and a “rough estimate of how deeply each unit was cut can be calculated by taking the number of union job losses and comparing them to snapshots of September employment data: 22.6% of Federal Student Aid: 326 union members were cut on Tuesday from the office, which had 1,440 employees in September; 42.7% of the Office for Civil Rights: 243 union members lost their jobs at OCR, which had 568 employees in September; and 56.4% of the Institute of Education Sciences: 105 people were fired from the research arm, which had 186 employees in September.” The Chronicle cautions these numbers don’t account for employment changes since September or nonunion employees who were fired. Education Secretary Linda McMahon believes students’ test scores will go up and suggests the cuts are the first step toward eliminating the department. (link)

The WAC announces Interim Commissioner Rebekah Ray as the full-time leader of the league. Tarleton State President & WAC Board of Directors Chair James Hurley: “We are thrilled today to officially name Rebekah Ray the eighth Commissioner in the storied history of the WAC. Rebekah’s exceptional leadership has been on full display over the past five months serving in the interim role. As a longtime on-campus administrator who made the move to the Conference office three years ago, Rebekah has the experience, creativity and drive to lead the WAC into the future.” (link)

Ohio State AD Ross Bjork, who’s on the new House Settlement Implementation Committee, recently talked to The Fan about enforcement dynamics in the new framework: “We all want this governance, we all want this enforcement, until it happens to us. So there needs to be agreement on the front end that, ‘OK, we're signing up for this entity. We agreed to the House case rules of engagement. We agreed to revenue share.’ You need to follow the rules. Whatever the rules are going to be, you have to follow. And if there's enforcement and if you go against those rules, OK, here can be the penalties. And we need to live with that. Now, can you negotiate that? Absolutely. You need to be able to negotiate. But who decides that? It can't really be our peers anymore. We would sit in front of these committee on infractions and you'd have an AD judging another program; we've got to get away from those kind of models. ... If we don't all agree to this and agree that we're not going to sue and we're not going to take it to the Attorney General's office and we're not going to go to federal court because we don't like an outcome, because this is what we signed up for, absolutely we have to agree to that. And that's part of it. There will be agreements that we have to sign that say ‘We're going to follow this.’” (link)

Cal Poly AD Don Oberhelman talks to KSBY’s Dylan Foreman about the impact of the House settlement, which recently included the Mustangs discontinuing its Swim & Dive programs: “Cal Poly is having to pay for the transgressions of others. [...] I think we're going to eliminate people from the (beach volleyball) roster just because somebody told us we had to do that. I don't think that's right. I don't think that's fair.” Beach Volleyball HC Todd Rogers: “I think it's not a good thing for mid-majors particularly. It's great for power four conferences because they got a lot of money, but for mid-majors, I don't know where you're going to get that money.” (link)

Former Department of Education Office of Civil Rights senior program analyst Valerie Bonnette, “who authored the agency’s 1990 Title IX Athletics Investigator’s Manual,” per Sportico’s Daniel Libit, pushes back on the recent interpretation by the current OCR on the impact of NIL deals & revenue sharing on Title IX laws. Bonnette via a letter: “OCR’s policy on revenues and outside funding—including compensation paid directly to students—has been abundantly clear for 50 years. This approach represents a fundamental principle that is central to all civil rights laws, not just Title IX. Allowing outside funding to circumvent an institution’s obligation to ensure equity is nothing less than condoning rampant discrimination, financed by the highest bidder.” More from Libit: “Bonnette’s letter is co-signed by two other key OCR officials with significant experience in Title IX: Jeanette Lim Esbrook, who played a pivotal role in implementing the 1979 Title IX intercollegiate athletics policy interpretation, and Jean Peelen, who oversaw some of the Department of Education’s first major Title IX athletics cases as OCR’s principal negotiator.” (link)

SBJ’s Mollie Cahillane reports both CBS & TNT Sports are officially sold out of March Madness commercial inventory. Warner Bros. Discovery Chief U.S. Advertising Sales Officer Jon Diament: “Advertisers really love this property.

This marketplace picked up earlier than it has historically.” (link)

Northwestern Men’s Basketball HC Chris Collins claims the Wildcats’ hotel at the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis doesn’t have air conditioning: “We’re used to being treated like that by this league. The rooms were a thousand degrees. There was no AC in the hotel, and our guys’ rooms were 85 degrees, and that’s where the league puts you. Every way they turn, they’re trying to get us. [...] They said they’ve had this issue for the past 10 days at that hotel. [...] There’s been a lot of stuff happening to this team on and off the floor. They just keep showing up and fighting. If they’ve got to sleep in 85-degree weather and that’s what the league wants us to do, we’ll figure it out.” Collins’ comments came after his team’s win over Minnesota yesterday in the tourney’s first round.

ESPN’s Chris Low dives into “how the SEC became college basketball’s most dominant conference.” In 2013 the league received just three bids in the NCAA Tournament and only Florida advanced past the first weekend. One of Commissioner Greg Sankey's first calls after taking over the conference in 2016 was to former Big East commissioner Mike Tranghese. Sankey hired Tranghese as a consultant and three months later brought in former college and NBA coach Dan Leibovitz as associate commissioner of men's basketball. Tranghese said of his initial meetings with athletic directors and coaches in 2016: “They were just totally beaten down. The coaches felt nobody cared. I'm not certain if all the ADs in that room believed they could win. I found it ludicrous, to be honest with you. I told the ADs, 'This is the most unbelievably nonsensical thing I've ever heard.' I even had one AD tell me that you couldn't win in basketball because the league was so good in football. My response: 'Why not? You have the resources, the fan bases, great athletes in your backyards. Use football to your advantage.' Most of all, I told them to quit whining and quit making excuses. … I looked at the coaches and just said, 'You could have Humpty Dumpty as your athletic director. That's not an excuse for not winning.’ Maybe they don't hold your hand. Maybe they don't pay as much attention to you as they do football, but who cares as long as you have the tools to succeed?” Auburn HC Bruce Pearl on the league’s dominance this year: “I really mean this. It's going to be interesting to see how many coaches want to stay in this league. In other words, we've got some coaches that are doing great jobs, coaches who've really elevated their programs, and they're still in the middle or lower half of this league because of how tough it is. Some of those guys are going to say, 'You know what? You can have it,' and go elsewhere.” More. (link)

On3’s Jamie Shaw gets insight from coaches on NIL and the transfer portal, answering the question of how much does it cost to build a top-25 college basketball roster. One ACC coach: “In this portal, I think you’ll need a minimum of 4.5 million. And that’s if you do a hell of a job evaluating. To be safe, it’ll be about 6 million to be a top-25 team.” An SEC coach: “To be a top-25 caliber team, you’re going to have to be around 4 to 5 million.” A former coach in the Big 12 shared the same thought, “It’ll be no less than 5 million to be in the top 25.” while a current Big 12 coach offered: “It will take nothing less than 5 million after rev share.” (link)

Under Secretary of Education during the Biden administration James Kvaal reacts to the recently announced layoffs in the education department: “These are the people who make sure federal dollars are spent according to the rules and as effectively as possible. Eliminating that capacity is not going to reduce government waste; it’s going to create more confusion.” Cato Institute Center for Educational Freedom Director Neal McCluskey does not share the same opinion: “We don’t know how many people are actually needed to execute [the department’s] jobs, and it’s time to find out if it’s been a bloated bureaucracy all along.” Of the nearly 970 unionized employees affected by the reductions, 326 were at the Office of Federal Student Aid. Before the layoffs, the FSA had about 1,400 staffers. Another agency hit hard was the Office for Civil Rights - at least 243 of the division’s about 550 staff members were let go Tuesday.
