Oregon State and Washington State football TV contracts are being finalized -- it will be The CW and Fox, per sources. The CW gets 10 games. Fox owns 3 games. More details: bit.ly/4dr4mdy
I wish the author had covered how this is a partnership. Sounds like typical substacking in the article. forbes.com/sites/kristido…
Null hypoth: No change in the distribution of CFB talent with NIL$. Alternative hypoth: More equal distribution of CFB talent with NIL$. Confounding factor- active transfer portal. Data incoming. theathletic.com/5466694/2024/0…
The article misses the point entirely. But one source, cited but ignored, gets it completely. “Rather, as Las Vegas Aces star Kelsey Plum said…’We’re asking to get paid the same percentage of revenue shared.’” nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna1…

Nick Carparelli's full comments on opt-outs:
It’s going to have to be a lot of NIL $. NIL > Value of portal + Risk of post season injury. And a lot of lawyers and agents negotiating that nobody in AthDept knows how to deal with. Interesting how he sticks to “agreement” but never uses “contract”.

14 teams in a football post season tournament. Sounds familiar.

Looks like Florida, New York, and Washington DC have joined Tennessee and Virginia's lawsuit against the NCAA's bans on pre-enrollment discussions with NIL collectives, per an amended complaint filed this morning.
In my new book, I talk about bad triple doubles. Embiid is having one of those.
Court determined result will only raise the artificial ceiling on athlete earnings. Only by accident will it be either the competitively determined or collectively bargained result. Again, just changing who determines economic exploitation of athletes. sports.yahoo.com/what-would-hou…
Hmm. There’s more to having coaches set up group presentations than just economies for this agency. Coaches give a stamp of legitimacy and have impacts on athlete choice. And if athletes already with this agency, is true union incentive dulled? sportico.com/leagues/colleg…
thestreet.com/sports/the-har… Great article from @colincsalao on the gender-wage gap in the WNBA. As Colin notes, Slaying the Trolls! tells the story!
Lots still up in the air, but this would dramatically change the economics for the world's richest soccer league. @kbadenhausen has details 👇

I'm always in favor of athletes making steps for themselves, esp. with my adopted home team at UAB. BUT... this feels like a fake/company union, at least from 30,000 feet. instagram.com/p/C6WVudRueBr/
Pryor is also a gleaming reminder about the intellectual/philosophical failures of sports journalism’s Scandal Beat, which glommed onto “tattoogate” as if it was a federal crime— as opposed to an NCAA rules violation. I wrote about this for @CJR in ‘11. archives.cjr.org/cover_story/th…

"Controlling tempo", or "dictating pace", is not seemingly a thing. If it is, I have never gotten a good definition that validates that it helps. Teams that try to run do tend to score more, which then also shows down the opponent by having to inbound. But is that it?

From @TheAthletic: Fans couldn't watch the WNBA preseason debuts of Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso due to a WNBA League Pass error on Friday night. Then over 800,000 viewers found a quirky alternative way to watch – through a fan’s livestream on X. nyti.ms/3UuF8lX
Same news, two different stories.
@RodneyFort i'm sure they've become the fastest of friends - that kind of partnership
The claims that a settlement in House, etc could resolve the issues in college sports seem to stem from confusion about how settlement agreements work. Settlement is wise, for Ps’ attys to collect fees & for NCAA et al, but it won’t stop other antitrust suits or fix all issues…
This is a very interesting concept (and excellent reporting) but unless the powers-that-be in college sports negotiate their new world order with a players union & that union agrees to it, their new world will face more antitrust lawsuits. I explain here: sportico.com/law/analysis/2…

How does this story get written and published without an analysis of or a question about the terms and conditions AO has included for any athlete that signs up? It's right there in plain view to see what this is about, and it's not the betterment of college athletes.
NEW: I spoke with @jimcavale about @AthletesOrg’s full-team commitment from @UAB_FB, potential conflicts of interest, AO’s ongoing pursuit of IRS 501(c)(3) status and its prospective future as an actual labor union. Latest for @Sportico: sportico.com/leagues/colleg…
@RodneyFort Coach has told me since middle school that I should play for free, and now he tells me there's a better way. I'll get paid and don't need to join a union. Guess I should go with that.
This is nice. But this is something governments should be doing on their own.
Philadelphia Eagles star quarterback Jalen Hurts is giving back to the community in a big way. Hurts has donated $200,000 for air conditioners in Philadelphia-area schools to keep students cool during warmer months. Learn more: trib.al/HRjG4DK
@RodneyFort Grad school and being a prof was such a waste. You just needed to open a twitter account. We were always seconds from being top economists!
@RodneyFort I am sorry. You are wrong. Had you gotten your PhD from "Troll University" you would know that only if a business makes a profit can it pay its employees. This is the first law of "Troll Economics!" 😂😂

If only there were some legal arrangement where a would be employer and a would be employee could contract to create mutually beneficial stability. Like, we could call it some new term, like an employment contract. But alas, no such thing exists.
One high major coach to me on the state of college basketball: “It’s a f#%king disaster. For us veteran coaches, this is not what we signed up for. I am not mad at the kids one bit. They’re seeking their value and earning money, and I think they should. It’s your right to get…
Tell me you are receiving rents (anticompetitive profits) without telling me you are receiving rents.
Per document obtained by @C_McAndrew95, the MOU also includes a very interesting provision connected to "potential changes to the financial model" for college athletics. See below ...
@RossDellenger It is a wonderful world where in Collective Bargaining one side dictates the outcome and the other side abides by the unilateral declaration…just not on this planet Someone has a lot to learn about Collective Bargaining…and something tells me the schooling is coming soon…
The New York Times called the Premier League the world's richest sports league in a story today on Luton. The data doesn't back that up. Total team revenue for most recent seasons: 🏈 NFL: $18.7B ⚾️ MLB: $11.8B 🏀 NBA: $10.9B ⚽️ EPL: $7.5B 🏒 NHL: $6.8B
The ballpark now known as Wrigley Field first opened its gates 110 years ago today.
I’m not a sports economist, but this plan sounds like garbage to me. Pay for the new stadium in part by refinancing the debt still owed on the current stadium? In a league where teams get $400 million a year in TV 💵? Pay for it yourself or find a new owner who can. @RodneyFort
BREAKING: The Bears plan for new stadium includes $4.6 billion price tag, with about half of it coming from the taxpayers. @chicagotribune scoop chicagotribune.com/2024/04/23/ske…
