Lawyers for Houston Christian University (HCU), a member of the Football Championship Subdivision’s Southland Conference, wrote in their bid to intervene: “The proposed settlement will adversely affect HCU. None of the parties, particularly the Defendants, has consulted with — much less taken any step to protect — HCU’s interests. Neither HCU nor its conference were parties to this litigation, had a seat at the negotiating table, or had any input into any resolution of this matter, including the proposed settlement.”

This is a very important initiative that is student athlete led and looks to protect student athletes, while still giving them opportunities to collect compensation. It seems to bring a more balanced approach to the future of college sports. Let the big boys break away, they have not been involved in the care, concern or education of their athletes for a long time. It doesn't surprise me that our own Anthony Egbo Jr. is a leading voice in this. He has been a spiritual leader for the team for years, as well as one of our top athletes on the field. He has been able to take advantage of NIL deals locally, play well and maintain high academic standards. If others like him are involved, then I look forward to seeing how this moves forward. There is a better way than what the CFP/P5 are doing.

Good deal sir. I always fondly recollect Wilbert Montgomery from ACU as I still am an Eagles fan.
