With a great movement that would allow schools to start paying their athletes directly, the NCAA Division Board of Directors proposed to delete 153 rules from the handbook as part of nine potential legislative changes at the Monday meeting.
The proposals are waiting for the approval of the $ 2.8 billion home settlement, which was reached by three separate antitröst cases against NCAA and College Sports last year. Among the proposals include name image and similarity compensation and regulation, a change to the limits of the staff from the scholarship boundaries, the standards of conformity, and the creation of a legal entity to control the application of the rules of updated athlete compensation in Department.
If the settlement is approved, NCAA said that until June 15, it would decide to decide to provide and provide for the next academic year, and that it will be planned to enter into force according to 1 July. Instead of settlement, schools that choose, NCAA’s long -standing rules of amatürkism will end, and athletes will begin to share $ 20.5 million annually in August.
According to NCAA, the abolition of these 153 rules is waiting for the decision of the US Regional Court judge Claudia Wilken whether to finalize the approval of the solution. Wilken gave preliminary approval last year and seems ready to push.
“I think it is worth following (settlement), and I think some of them can be corrected if people try to correct them and try to correct them.” He said.
Regarding the squad boundaries – a discussion point at the last year’s hearing – instead of existing scholarship boundaries, it will expand the amount of full scholarships allowed to offer schools. According to NCAA, the legislation would double the scholarships in women’s sports. It will also reduce the number of walks or partial fog opportunities in some sports.
Among the offers were included in a Nile Clearing House and Execution Branch that works outside NCA and aimed to bring clarity and stability to the Nile for all Part I schools “.
NCAA also proposed rules aiming to prevent schools from trying to overcome the $ 20.5 million limit, and required all players to explain the Nile agreements if they were $ 600 or higher. The agreements between a school and third party other than a player are subject to examination.
According to NCAA, the enforcement group will aim to “provide surveillance for the rules of the terms of the agreement, including the third party Nile and the annual benefit CAP”.
