Key Industry News
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit has reversed and vacated the nationwide preliminary injunction in the five-for-five eligibility case, Wisne v. NCAA, per Scarlet and Black Insider’s Austin Massey. “The injunction had already been stayed since August 21, and following oral arguments that appeared to go poorly for the plaintiffs, this outcome was largely expected. The three-judge panel concluded that the plaintiffs failed to establish a legally supportable antitrust labor market encompassing all Division I sports. Importantly, the court did NOT decide whether the NCAA's exclusion of the Class of 2022 is ultimately lawful, nor did it address whether NCAA eligibility rules are exempt from antitrust scrutiny.” (link, link - full ruling)
The SEC is considering imposing a luxury tax on member schools that exceed the revenue-sharing cap of about $22.2M for 2027-28. Per ESPN’s Mark Schlabach and Pete Thamel, a working group of ADs, university presidents and general counsels is weighing a graduated penalty formula, such as 1% on the first $1M spent over the cap and 3% on $3M, with hopes of approving the mechanism before the early football signing period from December 2-4.

When you’re feeding athletes and staff, reliability matters. Food needs to arrive on time, at the right location, and exactly as ordered to keep athletes fueled and schedules running smoothly.
ezCater helps teams stay on top of meal logistics by centralizing ordering in one place, making it easy to schedule deliveries in advance, enter detailed delivery information, and get confirmation that orders are on track. That means less time spent calling restaurants, checking on orders, and managing meal details manually.
For Northeastern University, that reliability helps Lauren Tebsherany, Director of Basketball Operations, manage more than 20 meals each month for 14 basketball players and 11 staff members during the season.
With ezCater, she can place an order with confidence, knowing the food will arrive when and where the team needs it.
“I like that I can place an order on ezCater and know that it’s going to arrive when it says it will. And I’m not going to have to worry about it in the process.”
– Lauren Tebsherany, Director of Basketball Operations, Northeastern University
