It's been a busy time, and an exciting one, for our client Athletes.org (AO), a fast-growing players association for college athletes. Last month, University of Notre Dame invited AO to campus, where AO’s leadership talked with current ND athletes across several sports over a two-day window. They discussed the implications of the House v. NCAA settlement proposal and other issues related to the historic labor movement in college sports. Then AO was mentioned in the House settlement proposal itself. The plaintiffs attorneys wrote: "To assist in obtaining ongoing information from college athletes during the Injunctive Settlement Term...Class Counsel will call upon established college player advocacy organizations to provide input on the views of class members, including from Athletes.Org led by Jim Cavale...” On Friday, Jim Cavale appeared on SiriusXM to talk with Rick Neuheisel and Chris Childers about the House settlement, revenue sharing more broadly, AO’s meetings with Notre Dame players, and more. The insightful interview begins at the 28:00 mark in the link below. #sportsbiz #sports #sportsindustry #sportsbusiness #media #news #journalism #NIL #labor #money #finance #economics #marketing #sportsmarketing #consulting #communications #linkedinsports #strategiccommunications #mediarelations #branding #collegesanduniversities #socialimpact #linkedin https://lnkd.in/g8N-d9B3
