Kris Jenkins files lawsuit

I want to sue my high school for that one time I got into a varsity game. They charged an admission fee and profited off of me.
Gotta believe the cheerleaders are entitled to some money too. There shouldn't be free entertainment during timeouts. It may entice some young ladies who are forced to dance for the groceries to take on cheerleading.
Don’t forget Flagman.
I foresee a performance based contract where will go back and pay $150 per lap. However before he starts there will be officials ensuring the size of the each lap is adequate. Flagmen of the 90s who set the bar will set the parameters
He says Nova placed the value of winning the 2016 National Title at $250 Million and used him on a publicity tour after he hit the game winner.
Most of his teammates are doing well for themselves in the NBA while he didn't have much of a pro career (2 seasons overseas). I believe he works at Villanova as a student athlete support assistant.
Lawsuits like his are going to prevent the House settlement from being approved. Not good for Seton Hall.

We knew this was coming. It was long speculated that the FMV cap on private/collective payments was going to be challenged in court. Rev share isn't going away - which is a good thing for Seton Hall - but the part of the settlement relating to capping collectives was never going to be enforced.
Capping rev share might go away though. Also not good for Seton Hall.
Sorry. The schools need to have some balls and sacrifice short term and cancel sports for 2 years. There's nothing that says schools need to have sports teams. Schools need to exercise that they have more power than the players. What happens to 99% of these athletes if there is no college ball to play? 1% will go to the G League and make way less. The rest won't have that luxury. The NFL scrambles with no feeder system at all. They all need the schools more than the school needs them.
Funny that he ls suing everybody except Villanova.
What about your classmates who didn't try out, but would've gone out for the team if they knew they could get paid 60 years later? They were wronged.
I believe he’s a broadcaster now. Didn’t the fact the kid became famous for hitting a title winning shot help him in an overly crowded broadcasting field? I’d bet it did enormously among other things we probably aren’t aware of.
What I hate is that none of the players were "USED" they were offered FULL SCHOLARSHIPS to goto college for free based on basketball talent......
Smart, going after the evil NCAA and the big conferences. They know the public perception of the NCAA and the right jurisdictions to bring these suits to get judges that will be happy for the opportunity to rule against the NCAA.
It says in the complaint that Villanova was not able to share any of their revenue with Jenkins because the NCAA bylaws strictly prohibited it. The poor schools can't be blamed even though the NCAA works on their behalf.
I was offered a tryout and have a letter to prove it. My classmates don't have the legal standing that I have! Hahaha!
I should also sue the NCAA now that I think of it. I'm sure there is a lawyer out there who is crazy enough to take this stupid case? Hahaha!
But Villanova is a voting member of both the NCAA and the Big East, they are part and parcel to all of it yet he disingenuously excludes them.
Makes a ton of good points though.
