Story from Ross Dellenger of Yahoo Sports
The next evolution of college athlete compensation is on the horizon.
College leaders and plaintiff lawyers, in negotiations now for months, are inching closer to arriving at an agreement to settle the House antitrust lawsuit and usher into the sport a new model that features sharing revenue with athletes.
But it’s not here just yet, and plenty of hurdles lie ahead.

We'll try to explain what is a very complicated — and fluid — situation.
