Here’s the latest ACC sports news from The Associated Press

UNDATED (AP) — College sports leaders believe they have found a way to seal a massive antitrust settlement to finally separate “true NIL” for athletes from what they call sponsored pay-for-play. If approved by a judge, the settlement would use mandatory disclosure rules, an outside clearinghouse to evaluate contracts and an enforcement process that includes neutral arbitrators to scrutinize transactions between college athletes and third parties for fair market value. The plan is aimed at so-called NIL collectives. To some, it looks like an overreach by the NCAA. Others see ample precedent in professional leagues that support NIL regulation.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Defending champion Florida State is the preseason pick to win the expanded Atlantic Coast Conference football race. The Seminoles received 81 of 170 first-place votes from participants in the preseason “ACC Kickoff” media days, while Clemson finished second with 55 votes. Miami was picked third, followed by North Carolina State and Louisville as the top contenders. Virginia Tech was sixth, followed by SMU, North Carolina, Georgia Tech and California. Duke was picked 11th, followed by Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Boston College, Wake Forest, Virginia and Stanford.

PARIS (AP) — Three-quarters of the nearly 600 American athletes competing in the Paris Olympics trained in college sports in the United States. It’s a shocking figure that puts the future of the Olympics themselves in the equation as the NCAA and its biggest schools set priorities for when they start paying college athletes. NCAA President Charlie Baker told The Associated Press he believes colleges will have to make tough decisions in the near future. He was in Paris for the opening ceremony, which took place around the same time lawyers filed details of a multibillion-dollar settlement that would split revenue among athletes and surely change the course of events at the NCAA.
