is back pay to former student athletes going to hurt MU, and if so, to what extent (% of future budgets). 

so, is the P4 going to play only OOC opponents within the P4?  if so, that's really going to hurt.  if not, then at least a payday every year to stay afloat?

If 95% of the settlement is going to P(5) athletes then 95% of the bill should be paid by the P(5) conferences.  And there goes Oregon St and Wash St's warchest, because they were P5 when this all went down.  Any other payment is complete BS.  No one but the P5 and NCAA were even listed in the lawsuit.  And the athletes should be forced to disclose how much money they were paid "illegally" and in tuition and perks and subtract that from the total.

It hasn't been finalized, but the figures that was posted was a school like Marshall (G5) would be required to pay anywhere from 500,000 to 1.5 million each year over the next 10 years in back pay (does not include NCAA withholdings from schools to cover their cost in the lawsuit either which the number for G5 has been anywhere from 1-3 million each year for the next 10 years).

All of that, and the final financial figures still doesn't include revenue sharing that is expected to begin with players in the Fall of 2025 next year either (the max number for school revenue sharing has been pitched anywhere from 22-25 million each year).

P4 schools are making a push (ACC leaders publicly saying it) that if you are going to play G5 schools they need to be at home and not to play anymore away games at G5 locations.
