Len has practiced law for over 50 years, including many sports law cases and many class actions, and he has a lot to say about the proposed settlement.

On this episode, I'm joined by Sedona Prince and Jim Cavale to talk about Sedona’s involvement as a named plaintiff in the House v NCAA case, Jim’s role in attempting to create a players association for college athletes, and their view on the role and power of college athletes going forward. We also talk about the growth of women’s college basketball. While Caitlin Clark gets a lot of the credit for the explosion in popularity, Sedona’s viral Tik Tok video in 2021 is often referred to as the moment that changed the NCAA and women’s college basketball forever.

With the dawn of a new era of college sports almost upon us, schools are preparing to share up to $20 million a year with their athletes. Many of these schools appear to be planning to pay football and men's basketball players a large chunk of that $20 million. How can schools divide up the money between male and female athletes without getting sued under Title IX? To help me break down all of the murky Title IX issues facing universities and how it all might play out, I'm joined by Title IX expert and sports lawyer with CCH& A Law, Kelleigh Fagan.

The House settlement has been preliminarily approved, but the lawsuits have not stopped. Over the last few months, we've seen former college stars, including Reggie Bush, Mario Chalmers, Terrelle Pryor, Braylon Edwards, and Denard Robinson, bring lawsuits claiming that they were and continue to be deprived of their right to earn money for the use of their NIL.

Jim Acho, longtime sports law attorney and professor of sports law, represents Denard Robinson, Braylon Edwards, and other Michigan stars in their lawsuits against the NCAA and the Big Ten. Jim joins the pod to talk about this case, why he thinks his client should win, and why we should expect to see more of these cases down the road.
