Is There A FATAL FLAW In House vs. NCAA Settlement? | UNC's Entanglements With ACC Revealed

Locked On ACC - Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast

Is there a fatal flaw in the approved House vs. NCAA antitrust settlement? The NCAA has approved this multi-billion dollar settlement which will also include revenue sharing with college athletes starting as soon as 2025. Part of the settlement's aim is to protect the NCAA from all future antitrust suits. However, the plaintiff lawyers in the Fontenot vs. NCAA antitrust case are resisting and fighting to keep their case from getting snuffed out. They claim that one or more of the named plaintiffs in the House settlement will opt out. The House lawyers, meanwhile, are confident that there will not be any opt outs.

Meanwhile, the president of Notre Dame issued a strong statement that on top of the house settlement, Congress must act to create federal preemption to keep the “student” classification on NCAA athletes and establish that they are NOT employees. Is this fair to the athletes who drive billions of dollars to the NCAA? Hosts Alex Donno and Kenton Gibbs break it all down. The guys discuss the many entanglements between UNC, the State of North Carolina, and the ACC. There are many financial reasons why UNC leaving the ACC would be far more difficult than Florida State or Clemson.
