In this episode, I break down three key reasons why Judge Wilkens declined to confirm the House v NCAA settlement during the April 7 hearing:

1) Future Athlete Impact- Judge Wilkens expressed concern that the settlement could unfairly affect future student-athletes who weren't part of the case and had no opportunity to object, potentially settling a troubling legal precedent. She asked the attorney to provide legal precedent to justify the 10 year Injunction which will impact future student athletes.

2) Roster Limits - She challenged the immediate implementation of roster size limits, suggesting that current student-athletes should be "grandfathered in" to protect their roster spots or that limits should be phased in over time.

3) $600 Dollar Review on Third party NIL Deals - Judge Wilkens questioned the logic behind questioning deals over $600. She pressed the attorneys to explain how the $600 limit would benefit student-athletes.
