Just the simplest of Google searches.... "ncaa schools paying players directly" The NCAA and its Power Five conferences agreed to a settlement that allows schools to directly pay student-athletes, a shift that could begin in the 2025-2026 season, with schools able to distribute up to $22 million annually to their athletes. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Settlement and Approval: A federal judge granted preliminary approval of a $2.78 billion settlement that resolves antitrust lawsuits against the NCAA, paving the way for schools to pay athletes directly. Revenue Sharing: The settlement creates a revenue-sharing plan, allowing schools to distribute a portion of their annual revenue to athletes. Power Five Focus: The initial focus is on schools within the Power Five conferences (Big Ten, Big 12, ACC, Pac-12, and SEC), but other schools may be able to opt in. Estimated Amount: Schools could potentially allocate around $20 million to $22 million annually for athlete compensation. Timeline: The implementation of this plan is anticipated to begin in the fall of 2025, with the 2025-2026 season being the first to see the changes.

NIL will now be open officially as a tool to use in recruiting NIL recruiting compensation to be allowed by NCAA under terms of proposed settlement - The Athletic

Well there's the quantity aspect as well....

puckpreps is a massive scam IMHO

The book Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell is a great read, as is the concept of bio-banding in youth sports. BUT the truth remains......If you want to be a hockey parent, or deer hunter for that matter, AVOID THE TEMPTATIONS OF VALENTINES DAY AT ALL COSTS!

Very few are "affiliated" so that limits who can get into a game, there are a few but combine that with weekend commitments to TeamND / CCM team, and some teams being in tight races (Bismarck/Minot/Austin) it's doubtful the Seniors would get game action. Theres a few more practicing with Junior teams but won't be allowed to play this spring.

Going into next season if a guy put the over/under number of bantams/high schoolers that leave for Tier"1"/AAA at 9.5... I'd take the over.

Ahh that makes sense... Keup went to Fox motors before the SJHL 2007 Colton Spiewak - Fargo - Sioux Falls Power 2007 Drew Albrecht - Fargo - Sioux Falls Power 2008 Parker Roers Goalie Dickinson - Northstar Christian 2007 Alex Schlafman - Bismarck - left for Northstar but returned and played Century JV and will play Century next year 2006 Brooks Siemans - Bottineau - left for CAN Rink Academy and returned for jv/Varsity 2010 Trey Benson - WF to Shattuck 14u 2008 Brenden Hakstol - Shattuck 18u

Colton Getzlaff leave early? Augustus Elbert - SFPower then NAHL Austin Bruins Bismarck has lost a ton of talent early as well 2005 Max Vig - USHL Cedar Rapids Rough Riders 2007 Charlie Vig - NAHL Bismarck and USHL Omaha Lancers 2006 Drew Beasley - NAHL MN Wilderness and MN Mallards 2006 Logan Keup - SJHL Melfort Mustangs 2006 Tristan Otto - Left for Bigsby Coffee but returned prior to school year Legacy High 2008? Cale Ackerman - Windy City Storm (weekend call up to the Force) Couple other kids from the Bismarck area that went to programs but not sure birth year Ahonen? Fox Motors, Shatz(sp)? Black Bear

Winners don't have to make excuses. Thats life.

Whelp..... yheeep

Even Scanlan was pissed on that one

It is not Team ND vs Team SD Team SD is a sperate team that competes at the Tier 2 level. Tier 1 cashes checks from all over.

I assure you the coaches drafting them into juniors or offering them college scholarships do not care if they are or if they are not.
