The Knight Commission on "Time for Project D1" Version 2.0, Parent's Perspective

Parents of athletes chime in on this conversation as the Division I Board of Directors on Thursday charged the Division I Council with developing recommendations for a framework that would address the key elements included in NCAA President Charlie Baker's "Project DI" framework. Any legislative proposals recommended by the council will be brought forward to the board for final consideration.

Three key elements of the framework will be considered independently, rather than as a package, including:

1. Allowing schools to offer enhanced educational benefits at any level they deem appropriate.
2. Allowing schools to enter into name, image and likeness agreements with student-athletes.
3. Establishing a subdivision within Division I that would allow higher-resourced schools to provide additional financial support for college athletes — in compliance with Title IX requirements — and create rules that may differ from other programs in Division I.
