Here's ESPN's take on the NCAA settlement. Looks like it establishes a defacto salary cap and allows schools to be upfront about paying players directly, although they will still call it NIL compensation. Athletes can still make money from third party NIL sources, too. I think it's still going to be a mess, and the mid majors are going to be left behind. The article highlights the key points this way: NCAA Antitrust Lawsuits Settlement Summary• Any Division I athlete who played a sport from 2016 to present day is eligible for past damages, which will be determined by a proposed formula
• Football and men's basketball players from power conference schools will be eligible to receive an average of $135,000
• Women's basketball players from power conference schools could receive an average of $35,000
• Highest individual estimated payout for one athlete will be $1.8 million
• Schools will be permitted for the first time to pay their athletes directly via NIL deals; each school could provide up to 22% of the average revenue that power conference schools generate from media rights, ticket sales and sponsorships -- a sum that is expected to be between $20 and $22 million per school when settlement goes into effect
• The $20-22 million figure that serves, in effect, as a salary cap will increase over time as the leagues' revenue grows; number expected to grow to nearly $33 million per school by end of settlement's 10-year term
• Those payments when combined with tuition and other benefits athletes already receive will create a system where many schools are sharing close to half of the revenue they generate with athletes
• The 50/50 split calculation considers all athletes at the school as one group rather than on a sport-by-sport basis
• Athletes would still be able to make money from NIL deals with third parties
• The NCAA agreed to remove any limits on the number of scholarships a school can provide to athletes
• Settlement allows for the court to appoint a "special master" to rule on any disputes about new rules related to player compensationwww.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/40649389/ncaa-antitrust-lawsuits-settlement-filed-federal-court

I notice that if a team sponsored every sport, it would have more than 220 more roster spots for women than for men, even though men are demonstrably more interested in playing sports, and spectators are on the whole demonstrably more interested in watching men's sports.
