NCAA Settlement Reshapes the Future of College Athletics

ABOUT THE EPISODE Wharton Lecturer Rob DiGisi talks about the sweeping changes to college athletics stemming from the House v. NCAA settlement. DiGisi breaks down the legal approval that allows direct compensation to college athletes, revenue-sharing models for Power Four conferences, and the implications for NIL collectives and non-revenue sports. He explores potential sports program cuts, the financial pressures facing athletic departments, and how the traditional student-athlete model is transforming into a commercialized system resembling minor league professional sports.
