How much money goes to U of M athletes

from The AM/DM · host The Daily Memphian

Last year, a U.S. District judge finalized a settlement permitting university athletic departments around the country to distribute up to $20.5 million annually in revenue to student athletes. This past week, for the first time ever, the University of Memphis disclosed it paid $11 million to student-athletes under revenue sharing. Today, the U of M Board of Trustees will hear a presentation on that program, and we're asking sports editor David Boyd all of our questions about how this all works.  Plus: Brent Taylor faces a potential Democratic challenger in the August state primaries Two former Medtronic buildings are for sale Teachers may soon have have to pass a civics exam to earn their license A family files a $35 million wrongful death suit against Youth Villages A British pub is coming to Overton Square A UK-based sports retailer is coming to East Memphis
