US EditionIn dispute over college roster limits, a trial could loom if judge doesn’t approve latest proposal
- Final arguments over contested roster limits in the NCAA $2.8 billion antitrust settlement were filed and await U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken's decision as of May 2025.
- The dispute arises from concerns that immediate roster limits harm current student-athletes by reducing team sizes and scholarships, prompting Wilken to suggest grandfathering players into their existing spots.
- The proposed settlement allows cut players to regain roster spots or transfer teams without counting against limits, while enabling schools to pay athletes for their name, image, and likeness rights.
- Attorney Jeffrey Kessler noted, "She made it very clear" that Wilken expects the issues fixed before approving, while Mike Rueda warned approval is unlikely without addressing current athletes' harm.
- If Wilken rejects the proposal, a trial likely starting next fall could ensue, which critics warn would create chaos across college athletics for the foreseeable future.
