NEWS: College sports’ new enforcement arm has opened its first publicly known investigation into a big-name program: LSU. The College Sports Commission (CSC) has started an inquiry into the Tigers over a potential violation of rules related to unreported player compensation, according to a Jan. 15 email obtained Friday by The Athletic through a public records request.

UCF’s friendly reminder to transfers and recruits…

Commercial jersey patches takes another step toward approval. In September, as reported then, DI conference commissioners were informed that jersey patches were expected to be approved this spring with an implementation date of Aug. 1.

The CSC issued two important rule interpretations today. 1. Rev share payments can be offset by third party NIL $ secured by a school, but the school’s cap hit is not reduced. 2. Athletes can be paid NIL $ to promote events in which they participate (MTEs, bowl games, etc.).
