Mountain West Commissioner Gloria Nevarez has inked a four-year contract extension running through Dec. 31, 2030. Wyoming President/MW Board of Directors Chair Ed Seidel: “Commissioner Nevarez has demonstrated exceptional leadership during a period of rapid change across intercollegiate athletics. Her vision, collaborative approach, and steadfast commitment to student-athlete success have strengthened the Mountain West and positioned us for long-term stability.” (link)

The House of Representatives will not vote on the SCORE Act this week, according to Punchbowl News’ Jake Sherman, who reports: “GOP leadership shelved the bill today but thought they could vote on it tomorrow. But House Dem leadership was whipping against it and it ran into opposition from Republicans like Chip Roy (R-TX). It also got caught up in general dissatisfaction with the House Republican leadership. Lawmakers wondered why the House was voting on the bill and not prioritizing bills on cost of living/affordability.” (link)

In the wake of the SCORE Act postponement, U.S. Congresswoman Lori Trahan (D-MA) tells Yahoo’s Ross Dellenger that it's hard for people to "stomach" a bill that restricts or caps athletes' NIL compensation when coaching buyouts are "not addressed." So far this year, Dellenger notes $228M has been spent on buyouts. (link); Dellenger also notes that “Congressional staff members believe that the SCORE Act is on the shelf, at the very least for the next several days/weeks. No action expected anytime soon barring vote flips.” (link)

College sports executives are working up a concept to increase the student-athlete revenue share cap by as much as $2.5M, according to Ross Dellenger, who in a column for On3 notes officials are exploring an idea to eliminate the provision of reducing the pool by the additional scholarship money, in turn granting schools up to $2.5M in additional rev share. Dellenger: “However, there is a catch. The proposal under consideration features a sort of ‘luxury tax’ — 20% is the latest figure being discussed — as a penalty for using some of the additional $2.5M. For instance, if a school spends the entire additional $2.5M, it owes a $500K (20%) penalty tax to the College Sports Commission (it will go toward operational expenses). More information is expected on this concept over the next few weeks. The lead plaintiff attorneys in the House case — Jeff Kessler and Steve Burman — told us several months ago that they’d be in favor of completely eliminating the $2.5M reduction. However, an active appeal of the settlement makes it more complicated to change settlement terms. This is an alternative proposal. Either way, the rev-share cap will increase next year. The pool in Year 2 will automatically increase by 4%, according to settlement terms (that’s about an extra $800K for next year). So, all in all, if the new proposal is finalized, that’s $3.3M in additional money for athletes for next year.” More. (link)

More from ACC Commissioner Jim Phillips with The Charlotte Observer’s Scott Fowler. On if the ACC will have to expand again: “I don’t know. It’s a good question. I don’t think anybody’s sure. What we need to do right now, over the course of the next 4-6 years, is settle down the enterprise called college sports. We went through a new governance structure at the NCAA. We’ve gone through revenue sharing for the first time, with payment to players. We’re working in Washington, D.C., on some national legislation. … We have a lot of things right now that we have to get settled to make this a sustainable model that works well into the future. We can’t lose sight that there are 550K young people playing sports across all divisions, that have access and affordability to higher education through sport, and that we believe have life-changing experiences. And 99% of them, they’re not going professional.” (link)
