Re: NiL collectives and collegiate rowing

To the best of my knowledge, there are no NIL collectives focused solely on men's or women's rowing teams. I also am not aware of any collectives that support multiple sports at an institution that direct any NIL money toward rowers. The Ivy League currently does not have any collectives, but there ...

Re: Fall 2023 / Spring 2024

Excellent summary by mandalorian. But, with regard to the number of contests for UW: As long as the contest is against DI competition (can also include non-DI teams in the same contest) and includes 23 student-athlete participants from the school, it counts. So fall races such as Head of the Lake co...

Re: Fall 2023 / Spring 2024

An incident such as being impeded by geese is really a rules of racing issue, not a format or progression issue. Last year's geese encounter took place in the grand final. If something similar occurs in a heat, properly applying the rules of racing is a better solution than maintaining a system of r...

Re: Dartmouth Basketball Unionized…

Dartmouth football competes at the FCS level, not the top FBS level. So neither Dartmouth nor the Ivy League get any money from the College Football Playoff coffers. The Equity in Athletics Data Analysis (EADA) report is a good starting point to understand the finances of Dartmouth athletics, althou...

Re: Dartmouth Basketball Unionized…

Re: Dartmouth Basketball Unionized…

Also, whoever represents the Ivy League in the NCAA men's basketball championship tournament gets a distribution depending on how many games they play. That money is split amongst all conference members, including the seven who did not make the tourney.

Re: Fall 2023 / Spring 2024

This is SMU's final year in the AAC. So either SMU or an AAC school not in this preseason ranking will qualify as an AQ.

Re: Fall 2023 / Spring 2024

Except that the AQ from the A-10, CAA, MAAC, Patriot, and WCC aren't in this preseason top 20. So you need to subtract three programs to get to the actual field of 22.

Re: Pac12 defections?? Big10 gains??

Texas will still be a member of the Big 12 for this year’s conference championship and are eligible for, and the likely favorites for, the AQ. It remains to be seen if, as a member of the SEC in spring 2025, their only avenue to the NCAA championship will be an at large selection.
