In re: College Athlete NIL Litigation (House) vs. NCAA
The NIL Cases: House v. NCAA, Carter v. NCAA, and Hubbard v. NCAA
Current and former college athletes brought several lawsuits against the NCAA and its affiliated athletic conferences related to lost compensation opportunities. The athletes allege that the NCAA and affiliated athletic conferences unlawfully denied them the chance to earn money from endorsements and media appearances.
The NIL Settlements
The NCAA and Power Five Conferences agreed to settle the lawsuits for approximately $2.8 billion. If the settlement is ultimately approved, the $2.8 billion in settlement payments will be divided among eligible class members, the attorneys who brought the cases, and the settlement administrator, and the defendants will make payments into a settlement fund in equal amounts over the next 10 years. For more information on the settlement, please consult the settlement website established by class counsel.
Sycamore Grove’s Solution
With the defendants scheduled to make payments over a 10-year period, eligible class members will be forced to wait for over a decade to receive the full amount they are owed. Sycamore Grove can provide a tailored solution to accelerate payments. Generally speaking, Sycamore Grove will provide an up-front cash payment in exchange for a class member granting rights to future payments from the NIL Settlement.
