Always nice to remember UK losing.

I had forgotten how ugly Wisconsin's uniforms were.

Halftime, tied at 35!  Pretty good game so far.

This Crown championship is a dog fight!  Nebraska was just down 14, and clawed back to take a 4 point lead!  8:30 left!

[Ryno6284]

Nebraska wins 77-66!

[Uspshoosier]

Down to 1 more college basketball game for the year

Paul Biancardi posted this link to the NCAA Settlement Hearing that is currently underway.  Pretty good summary of what's at stake.

Former Indiana Mr. Basketball Kyle Guy was on staff at UVA as "athlete development mentor/special assistant" -- whatever that meant. Regardless, I guess he's not being retained by Ryan Odom.

How was the crowd for the final Crown game? The little I watched looked as sparsely attended as a 9th grade B-team game.

A couple of these seem to contradict each other. I have seen the $20.5M plenty of times but the 22% I don't recall. So does that  Is it the smaller of the two, i.e.,  22% up to $20.5M?  I've always seen the $20.5M as a cap, this says as a start. I'm guessing that just means for the first year.

Also, they say 22% but also 50%. I'm confused. Maybe that 50% includes the scholarships and the possibility of adding more scholarships to sports where there were low caps?

• The deal also creates a new system where colleges that choose to participate can share up to 22% of their revenue from things like TV deals, ticket sales, and sponsorships with their athletes. Experts think this could start at about $20.5 million per year for each school.
• Overall, it's expected that colleges will share about 50% of their sports revenue with athletes. This is similar to how professional sports leagues share money with their players.
