🚨 House v. NCAA Settlement Hearing has been delayed to allow for further changes 🚨

Yesterday, U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken conducted a hearing of final approval for the House v. NCAA Settlement. After a full day of review, she raised multiple concerns and did not approve the settlement in its current form.

What is House v. NCAA?
House v. NCAA refers to a lawsuit filed in 2020 by NCAA athletes from various schools. This lawsuit challenges the NCAA rules that prevented athletes from being compensated for their name, image and likeness. The settlement, which is often labeled as “controversial”, due to the proposed implications on roster limits, which could potentially eliminate walk-on spots.

What’s the hold up?
During the trial, Wilkens raised a few main concerns, with the first being current athletes losing their roster spots and the second being future athletes not having a say in the terms of the settlement. The judge proposed that current athletes be “grandfathered in”, meaning they will be allowed to use their remaining eligibility. Regarding her other main concern, lawyers on both sides propose that each year athletes are notified and given the opportunity to object to the settlement terms.

What’s next?
Concluding the hearings yesterday, Judge Wilkens instructed both parties, “See what you can do about all these issues.” She added “Basically, I think it’s a good settlement ‒ don’t quote me on that ‒ but I think it is worth pursuing and I think some of these things could be fixed if people tried to fix them, and that it would be worth their while to try to fix them.”

Both parties agreed that they would get back to Wilken within one week with a plan to resolve the issues stated during the trial. Objectors will have one day to respond.
