Big Ten Media Day…
+ Commissioner Tony Petitti weighs in on whether the SEC and Big Ten can agree on a future CFP model: “We're obviously not in the same place on these discussions. I think the goal would be to bring people back together. ... Every time the two leagues have come together good things have happened. … We are open to considering any format ideas that come from our colleagues or the CFP staff, but to be clear, formats that increase the discretion and role of the CFP selection committee will have a difficult time getting support from the Big Ten.” (link, link)
+ On CFP automatic qualifying bids: “We feel very strongly, providing games that are do or die (at end of season) will increase fan interest. Talking to those involved in our league, championship games & play in games are not bad for college football.” (link)
+ On the 4-4-2-2-1 playoff format: “We want to better connect the regular season and the post-season. A critical goal of any post-season format, regardless of sport, is to keep as many teams alive as deep into the season as possible. We want more conference games to matter in November. Also, the playoff format should not function as a disincentive to schedule tough, nonconference games. As we said throughout this process, we are open to considering any format ideas that come from our colleagues or the CFP staff, but to be clear, formats that increase the discretion and role of the CFP Selection Committee will have a difficult time getting support from the Big Ten.” (link)
+ Petitti also disagrees with those who contend that his preferred CFP model de-emphasizes the importance of non-conference games: “At the end of the day, you are still playing for seeding and straight seeding. If you had a system where you are qualifying off your conference record, winning or losing a tough nonconference game could affect seeding. Plus, the models we're talking about, there's still some at-large picks left. I think we’ve got to focus on the right incentive. You're starting to see games being dropped. I think there's a running concern among coaches, and you'll hear from our guys, whether they cover this or not, is does winning a big nonconference game help you more than losing a nonconference game hurts you? That's the sentiment. What's the right way to measure that? Also, a lot of these games tend to be played early in the season. You don't quite know who your team is at that point. Teams move up and down across the season. Some teams are unhealthy or unlucky. It really depends. I focus more on let's create an incentive to schedule more of them naturally. I don't think we need rules to do it.” (link)
+ In regards to ongoing discussions about the CSC’s guidance on ensuring NIL deals have a “valid business purpose,” Petitti remarks: “I don't think it's unpredictable, but there will be some moments like this where whether it's guidance or interpretation of rules, there's some discrepancy, but I think what's happened over the last few days, based on talking to our general counsel and others, that they're working together to try to get to the right resolution on this and then to move forward. I don't think it will be the last time that there's some issue that comes up in the process. Again, I think people have to be patient when it comes to the CSC. The settlement, frankly, came later than we expected in terms of its approval. We're grateful that Judge Wilken chose to approve it, but it did compress the time period.” (link)
+ Petitti also confirms he sent a letter to the NCAA in relation to the sign-stealing controversy involving former Michigan staffer Conor Stalions but declines to comment on the letter’s contents. “Because it's an ongoing process, I don't think it's appropriate for me to comment about whether it's enough or not while there are individuals deliberating. I don't think that's the right thing to do in the process. … This is a system we have now. It's been in place for a long time. It functions the way it was built, but I do think there's this consensus among our colleagues that whatever we are building for the enforcement piece that's going to live inside the CSC, that's got to be still there. It's difficult to still be talking about this almost two seasons after. I think everybody agrees that part of the process should change.” (link)

ACC Media Day…
+ ACC Commissioner Jim Phillips comments on some financial changes the league has made following recent settlements with Florida State and Clemson. “The settlement provides long-term stability for the league with the potential for all members to benefit from additional revenue opportunities. Leading in the distribution of revenue based on success and now with an additional revenue district distribution model that is based on viewership, the ACC has been innovative in its approach to conference revenues. As part of the modernization of college athletics, these new models allow us to maintain distributions for all ACC members that are above most other conferences while also providing flexibility for competition at the highest level of revenue. […] We had the highest gross revenue ever reported for the league at over $711 million. Over the last five years, our overall revenue is up 56%, and has more than tripled in the last 13. We delivered an average of $45 million to each school, also a league record. Once again, we are in the top three in both overall revenues generated and per school distribution, and we fully expect that to continue as we look ahead.” (link)
+ Regarding possible NCAA Tournament expansion and its potential as a "bargaining chip” to be utilized with other leagues relating to the College Football Playoff and other issues, SBJ’s Ben Portnoy reports Phillips “said the league's men's basketball coaches are more open to expansion, the women's coaches are less supportive.” Phillips continues on to say that “basketball is the crown jewel of all of our championships. … The CFP certainly is really important, draws an awful lot and ends up being a financial engine for all of us, but I think the country really enjoys March like nothing else, so we have a responsibility and obligation to protect it. … I always like additional access for teams and schools when it’s the right time and when it’s the right tournament and format.” (link)
+ On the CFP format: “We all recognize the importance of coming together to find a solution that is truly best for all of college football. Fairness and access are paramount, just as they are in all other college sports postseasons.” Phillips also stated he is open to a 5+9 or 5+11 model. (link)
+ Also of note: “Phillips announces player availability reports will be required in football, men's and women's basketball and baseball in conference games. In football, reports will be issued two days before games, with updates one day before and game day.” (link)
+ Phillips talking student-athlete employment: “One of the major facets that we're looking at in the SCORE Act is this reaffirmation that these are student athletes, that these aren't employees, along with a national standard & legal protection from the onslaught of lawsuits. […] I haven't had one student-athlete come up to me and say they want to be an employee.” (link)
+ On moving forward with the College Sports Commission: “When I said earlier with the emphasis on restraint, I meant it. We can't help ourselves sometimes. People know what the rules are relative to $20.5M. They know what legitimate NIL is. You can play in that gray area if you want, but all that does is undermine a new structure. I really like where we're going. It's not going to be perfect. It shouldn't be expected to be perfect. … Just so you know a little bit about NIL Go, who's registered, let me give you these numbers. Student-athletes: 15,519. Reps and agents: 1,970. Average daily logins: about 600 student-athletes a day are getting on NIL Go. Approved deals, I don't have that number. Anyway, so it’s moving. … We fought hard for the things I just mentioned, and we'd be well-served to just kind of relax and let this thing settle in.” (link)
+ On the matter of field/court storming, WDRB’s Eric Crawford mentions: “ACC to implement a fine structure of $50K (first offense), $100K and $200K for court and field storming. … Haven’t yet seen this actual rule, but sounds like there will be a vehicle to still allow this, but only after visiting team has exited the field or court.” (link)
+ On conference scheduling: “If the SEC ends up going to nine (conference games), maybe we end up going to nine.” (link)

The Wall Street Journal’s Rachel Bachman and Laine Higgins tackle what they call “the billion-dollar question looming over college sports.” Do collectives count as businesses? With a battle currently raging over whether booster collectives can still raise money from fans and steer those funds to student-athletes in exchange for promotional or charity work, the author questions whether boosters will actually go along with recent College Sports Commission guidance effectively denying collective NIL deals. Iowa-focused Swarm Collective CEO Brad Heinrichs: “One thing I know about people who are wealthy is that they’re going to do what they want. Telling a wealthy person who owns a business that they can’t pay a student-athlete $25,000 for advertising because some other third party tells him that he’s overpaying and the student-athlete is only worth $10,000, you know, that just doesn’t feel appropriate to me, personally.” With institutions now able to share revenue with student-athletes up to $20.5M per school, and no collective bargaining agreement in place, Bachman and Higgins note it’s likely that unless they play football or basketball, most won’t see any of that money. Over recent years, it’s been collectives helping pay student-athletes from non-revenue sports, but the new rules seemingly threaten that tenuous arrangement. Labor economist Andy Schwarz argues that “it’s pretty much anti-American. The question comes down to: Is it reasonable to say it’s OK for an athlete to get paid $1 million by his school, but it’s not OK for a group of community leaders to supplement that income?” (link)

+ UNC Asheville highlights a record $3.5M in annual giving during the 2024-25 academic year from just over 2K total gifts, noting that the amount only includes cash gifts, surpasses last year’s fundraising total by nearly $1.2M and marks the first time the department has exceeded the $3M threshold. The sport-specific giving total also increased with the University’s 16 teams reaping a total of almost $620K, nearly doubling the amount received back in 2022-23. (link)

In his 2025 State of the Conference, Big Sky Commissioner Tom Wistrcill covered several topics, including the league’s sports gambling approach. “Sports gambling is a big deal, and we take it very seriously in the education we give to our student-athletes, coaches and staff. I think the stat that [IC360] show that it’s really important to think about $91M was bet on Big Sky football last year. That’s a lot of money.” Wistrcill noted one reason that number is so high is because Big Sky games are often the last games played on a given Saturday night. “So we just have to make sure we talk about it, coaches talk to your student-athletes about it, administrators talk to your staff about it. Make sure we’re not caught up in something like that in the BIg Sky Conference.” Regarding the state of college athletics as a whole, Wistrcill explains that “we are the true college athletics at our level. We still talk about graduation, we still talk about student-athlete experience and yet we still also win championships. That balance is really important to what we do at our campuses. Other schools across the country can worry about paying their players a ton of money and have those issues. We’re not going to have that in the Big Sky, and we’re fortunate enough to find that balance.” Wistrcill has spoken with U.S. Representative Michael Baumgartner (R-WA) about how the current landscape is impacting student-athletes, and Wistrcill remarks the industry needs congressional help. “We just can’t keep up the pace of every time we try to set a rule that we get sued for it. … So I’m encouraged by the SCORE Act. … As that helps to settle the top, it also helps us in the middle.” Full address.

Georgia State AD Charlie Cobb joins the Panther Insider podcast to discuss how the House settlement is impacting the department and remarks that “probably the first piece of this that's really been kind of an eye-opener and frustrating for me because I've tried for several years to get people to acknowledge this up front, but of the $2.8B, roughly $500-700M of this is going to the plaintiffs’ attorneys. And so this whole thing started really with some attorneys that felt like there's an opportunity to make some money, and they were successful in doing it. But I think it’s a little bit disingenuous for people to say that this was fully trying to compensate kids for marketing rights that maybe they didn’t have access to when you're going to take $500-700M for your work. … I argued with the NCAA attorney several times when I was on the DI Council that this should be something that was part of the discussion in a very public setting because I think it’s excessive by any stretch of the imagination. But, those that are in that world as plaintiff attorneys, they would argue that it's certainly more than justified and the judge agreed.” The Panthers plan to share $1M-$5M in revenue, and Cobb acknowledges that doing so will require not only an examination of how to generate new revenue streams, but also where to manage expenses. “And so you get in a situation where maybe you've chartered planes for your football team to go to games. Well, maybe now we're going to look at five- or six-hour bus rides. Maybe we don't need to stay in this hotel or maybe we don't need this piece of equipment. So you have to be creative in that regard in terms of where your expenses are going to be and everybody's going to be different.” Lots more, including Cobb’s thoughts on transfer fees a la European soccer.

Weatherford Capital Co-Founder Drew Weatherford and IMG Academy CEO Brent Richard in an op-ed for SBJ acknowledge that while the rev-share era will propel “football and men’s basketball players – just 2.5% of all NCAA student-athletes – into a professionalized orbit,” college sports leaders should consider adopting a separate model for the remaining 97.5% of student-athletes. The so-called “One for the Many” model is based on adding more student-athletes rather than eliminating programs. “By adding more tuition-paying student athletes, schools will undoubtedly improve their profitability and leverage their valuable existing facilities, assets, school brands, sports facilities, coaching and administrative talent.” They suggest three ways to add student-athletes: add to existing NCAA-sanctioned varsity rosters; reimagine and bring back JV teams; and/or adjust NCAA rules to allow universities to have multiple teams in the same sport competing at multiple divisions (for example, having a DI, DII and a DIII baseball team). “University leaders may wonder if there’s enough demand from tuition-paying families to add to existing varsity rosters and to add JV teams. The private market has already answered. Families spend over $30B annually on youth sports, and demand is growing. Nearly 8M U.S. high school students, representing over 50% of all high school students, participate in sports. Fewer than 7% go on to compete in college. That leaves millions of driven and disciplined student athletes without a path forward, not because they’re unqualified, but because we haven’t created pathways for them. The result is a significant imbalance between supply and demand in the market. The only question is, will higher education seize or miss the opportunity to create new solutions for the largest ‘affinity group’ entering college each year, high school student athletes?” (link)

Apollo Global Management and Ares Management are the latest PE firms considering setting up media and entertainment funds that will accept debt and equity investments in leagues and teams, per Bloomberg, which noted that the companies “have been pouncing on opportunities to invest in sports teams, boosted by the NFL’s landmark decision last year to allow P.E. firms to own teams.” (link)

Nebraska has established a new Special Events department to engage the Huskers’ facilities on a more regular basis. Specifically, the Special Events team will prioritize external rentals, allowing the public more access to Nebraska facilities while providing increased revenue opportunities. Husker Special Events also aims to host large events in Memorial Stadium in the offseason, and NU plans to make other competition spaces and facilities available for rental gatherings such as conferences, banquets, galas, private receptions and corporate functions. Huskers AD Troy Dannen: “Lincoln is a vibrant city with a lot of activities and events, but Husker Athletics can become more active in continually driving events and people into our community. We have talked regularly about engaging Memorial Stadium more than just seven home games in the fall and making all our facilities more available to the public. The next step in that process was to create a department that can focus on these types of events and better engage the public.” (link)

Sportico’s Jacob Feldman digs into Dallas Baptist’s choice to be one of just nine schools to opt in to revenue sharing despite the majority of its sports competing at a non-Division I-level. For AD Matt Duce, with the DBU baseball program a perennial national DI contender, the choice came from his determination to keep the Patriots competitive. Duce: “The decision was not so much if we are going to opt in or not, but just how we’re going to adapt to the new climate. If you don’t do it, then you’re gonna have a really hard time competing.” Per Feldman, DBU’s baseball program “anchors its school’s athletic department while also serving as an attention- and credibility-driver for the entire university, which has an undergraduate enrollment of roughly 2,850.” With new rules now in place, DBU will be able to go beyond the traditional 11.7 scholarships permitted to baseball programs, but it remains to be seen that if by prioritizing a sport like baseball, a school like Dallas Baptist can find an advantage over larger schools that are diverting the majority of their resources to football and men’s and women’s basketball. Feldman notes the school declined to share how much money they’ll allocate to baseball student-athletes in 2025-26, but did note they’re looking to maximize the number and continue YoY growth. Duce: “We pride ourselves on competing. And so that’s where we’re at. Our vision is not changing, our mission is not changing. It’s just how you do business is a little bit different, and we’re going to adapt, just like we always have.” (link)

CBS’ Matt Norlander provides an in-depth look at how men’s hoops programs around the country are pressing on into the rev-share era and notes the “upcoming 6-10 months are especially hazy” from a recruiting standpoint. Much of the uncertainty stems from a lack of confidence in the College Sports Commission, as one HC with recent Final Four experience explains: "I'm concerned. I don't believe it yet because until they start enforcing any rules, no rule is going to matter. I would suggest we should shut down our collective tomorrow if I knew that this new structure was going to work. ... I'm skeptical over it, that things are going to get there." Moving forward, Norlander notes: “Creative accounting will soon be the new rage. Coaches believe some of their competitors will be doing whatever it takes, either through loopholes or brazen cheating, to keep acquiring talent.” Another coach with Final Four experience says he “heard a school hired Deloitte to come up with an algorithm to beat their algorithm.” Lots more.
