South Dakota AG and Board of Regents oppose NCAA's request to move lawsuit over $2.8B settlement to federal court.

South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley and the Board of Regents are opposing the NCAA's request to move their lawsuit to federal court. Filed in September, the lawsuit contests a $2.8 billion settlement proposed by "Power Four" conferences, claiming it unfairly burdens smaller schools like South Dakota State University and the University of South Dakota. The lawsuit also highlights that female athletes would receive only 10% of the settlement. A judge will decide on the venue later.
