Protect College Sports Act [formerly “SCORE Act” thread]

Yes, but we have to guard against vague pie-in-the-sky nonsense.

"Miami needs to play a tougher schedule". "Miami needs a sparring partner". "Miami shouldn't play FAMU".

All of that is bull****, and it ignores what actually happened. Miami went to NINE games in the ACC (F$U didn't). That means we have THREE OOC games to schedule/play. One of those games is against Notre Dame, the #3 team in the country. Currently, at this moment, who else in the P4 is playing a higher ranked OOC game than us? GaTech v. Georgia qualifies. Texas v. Ohio State qualifies. Everyone else can **** off.

As for our other TWO games, let's not forget that both Auburn and South Carolina dropped games with Miami. What were our options? Does anyone honestly believe that there is a long line of P4 ADs outside of Radakovich's office who are just desperate to schedule Miami? And let's not forget that Miami has been scheduling FAMU since the 1970s.

Yeah, "Miami needs a sparring partner" is just something that soft Miami "fans" say so that they can look cool in front of their Gator friends. Hey, if the SEC wants to invite Miami, feel free to send that invitation to President Joe. Until then, it's just snobbish bull**** for SEC fans to accuse Miami of having a weak schedule, when all the SEC teams that were SUPPOSED to play Miami have backed out.

I honestly don't give a **** about any of this

If you know you are in the ACC… Then be the team that DOESN'T schedule a g6. If you for some reason you have to have FAMU or Bethune on there (which you shouldn't I don't care how long you've played them) then your other game can't be CMU. Go at least get Okie St… Or UCF… Or Memphis

I do understand that we were in a toughspot when those teams dropped Miami. Also my problem is with cfb as much as it is with UM. I'm just saying work around, be that team. This **** is just a poor product right now.
 
Totally innocuous Thursday night news dump.

What’s kinda interesting about this report is that USF + Memphis are the only two G6 schools hitting that revenue share number, so a couple of P4 schools aren’t

www.espn.com

Student-athletes received $1.77B in revenue-sharing pay in '25-26

Sixty-eight schools reached or came within 5% of reaching the $20.5 million revenue-sharing cap over the first season of NIL payments.

This is sleight of hand framing

Exactly 68 schools, the same number of athletic programs in the four biggest conferences in Division I, reached or came within 5% of reaching the $20.5 million revenue-sharing cap over the first season of a system that allowed the schools to pay their players directly.

Court filings by the College Sports Commission on Thursday showed that, in all, 319 schools opted into the arrangement outlined in the House lawsuit settlement that set the cap at 22% of the average of certain revenues at Power Four athletic departments. Of those, 307 doled out $1.77 billion in revenue.

Simple mathematics puts 68x20000000=1,360,000,000 (68 x 20 million)

1,360,000,000/1,770,000,000=0.768

So 77% at minimum, attributable to those 68 schools, are responsible for that doling out the vast majority of that revenue. & we know a few sports drive the profitability. 68/307=0.221 aka 22% of the schools are doing 77%+ of the monetary distribution back to labor.

No clear reason why the power 4 should be responsible for subsidizing the rest of d1 + d2 + d3. Which is why the CFP is a separate entity away from the ncaa to avoid the hoarding & arbitrarily distributed billions, primarily driven by the 68 schools with a few dozen others being the only relevant ones, that happens with March madness + the ncaa.

Ofc, the ncaa sees its demise around the long corner & are working hard to remain viable.
