Episode 63: Breaking down the Landmark House v NCAA Settlement with Rakesh Kilaru, Lead Counsel for the NCAA

Send us Fan MailThe NCAA has reached a landmark proposed settlement in its three major antitrust cases that will require the NCAA to pay nearly $2.78 billion in back damages and permit schools to share up to 22% of their revenue with college athletes.  This is arguably the biggest development in the history of college sports. To help break it all down, I'm joined by the lead lawyer for the NCAA, Rakesh Kilaru.  Rakesh walks us through the major terms of the settlement, explains why it happened when it happened, how this will impact future lawsuits against the NCAA, issues that still need to be decided, what it means for the future of the NCAA and the power conferences, and everything else you could possibly want to know.  Thank you for listening!
