"Revolutionizing College Football: The Potential of an 80-Team 'Super League'"

A group called "College Sports Tomorrow" is reportedly working on creating a college football "Super League" that could potentially break away from the NCAA, featuring promotion and relegation, a playoff without a selection committee, and a players union negotiating terms for Name, Image and Likeness (NIL), transfer, and pay. The proposed league would consist of the top-70 programs from former major conferences, plus Notre Dame and Southern Methodist University in one tier, with the playoffs resembling the NFL format. However, the proposal has not gained traction with the power players in college football, as the Big Ten, SEC, Big 12, and ACC have their media rights tied up through at least 2030.

"NBA's G League Ignite Disbands Due to NCAA's NIL Policy"

The NBA is shutting down the G League Ignite at the end of this season, citing the changing basketball landscape, including the NCAA's Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) policy and the advent of collectives and the transfer portal. Since 2020, 10 players from the G League Ignite have been drafted into the NBA, including top-three picks Jalen Green and Scoot Henderson. The program provided an alternative path to the NBA for graduating high school seniors, offering players paychecks and a chance to compete against professional competition.

"NCAA's Power Struggle: The Future of College Football's Pay-for-Play Era"

Kirk Herbstreit, a college football analyst, predicts that top college football conferences may break away from the NCAA following a federal judge's ruling against the NCAA's prohibition on name, image, and likeness (NIL) compensation. He suggests forming a new governing body with one voice and addressing issues like NIL and revenue sharing, foreseeing a future where players are treated like employees. Herbstreit believes the NCAA is losing power and that college football may need to create its own world to address these changes.

"Tennessee Faces NCAA Investigation for NIL Violations Across Sports"

The University of Tennessee is under NCAA investigation for potential name, image, and likeness (NIL) violations, with the focus on activity related to the Spyre Collective, the school's primary NIL collective. The investigation could lead to potential sanctions as a repeat violator, following a previous ruling in 2023. Tennessee has pushed back against the allegations, arguing that the NCAA rules regarding NIL are "intellectually dishonest." The case comes at a time when the NCAA is increasingly focusing on NIL-related issues, and Tennessee's defense is centered on the claim that the university complied with interim NIL policies and that the allegations are factually untrue and procedurally flawed.

NCAA asserts authority over state laws in new NIL policy

The NCAA has clarified its name, image and likeness (NIL) policy to member institutions, urging them to follow its rules instead of state laws. Boosters are not allowed to have direct contact with recruits during the recruiting process to discuss potential NIL opportunities as a recruiting inducement. Many member institutions have used the power vacuum to push the envelope on NIL endeavors, with Texas A&M's primary booster organization announcing a fundraising effort called the 12th Man+ Fund, which is built to raise NIL dollars using the fundraising arm of the university. The NCAA has not acted on the 12th Man+ Fund more than four months after its creation.
