During his weekly broadcast, Dabo Swinney, head coach of the Clemson Tigers, discussed his desire to embrace the revenue-sharing model.
The NCAA vs. House settlement is still in federal court. However, all sides are hopeful that it will be adopted shortly, allowing the revenue-sharing era in college athletics to begin next summer.
If that happens, Dabo Swinney, Clemson Tigers football coach, says the team is prepared to play right away. “We’re going to be in a great spot when the revenue sharing starts,” Swinney stated on his weekly radio interview on Monday, according to tigernet.com.
Swinney stated that the Tigers “…have the money here,” implying that if Clemson was willing to share, they could.
If the House settlement is approved, scholarships will be expanded, requiring colleges to agree to share up to $22 million per year with current and future student-athletes. There will also be roster limits, as agreed upon in the settlement. The football roster maximum would be 105. Men’s and women’s basketball would be allocated 15 slots each. Baseball would be allocated 34 spaces, softball 25 spots, and volleyball 18 spots.
Earlier this year, the athletic department created Clemson Ventures, which aims to maximize the department’s revenue-generation efforts.
The new program was designed.
“Our roster and the kids we’re recruiting.” The NIL section is one of the reasons why the House settlement has yet to be authorized.
The Tigers (2-1, 1-0 ACC) are set to meet the Stanford Cardinal in a night game in Death Valley on Saturday. The two colleges have never met during the regular season, however they did meet once in the 1986 Gator Bowl.
Stanford joined the ACC in August, so this will be a league game for both teams.
