The House v NCAA settlement has officially been passed by Judge Claudia Wilken, allowing schools to directly pay players.
That and the NIL cap could help the B12/ACC.
On today’s episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin and ‘Locked On Cougs’ host Parker Ainsworth to discuss 5-star QB Keisan Henderson.
Shutting down his recruitment is a HUGE development for Willie Fritz and the Big 12. (10:38)
Spencer concludes the show discussing the idea of an equitable Playoff of auto bids where all the P4 leagues get the same number of bids.
That is an absolute fantasy, unfortunately. (20:33)
