The NCAA would pay $303 million to settle a class-action lawsuit affecting more than 7,700 men and women who worked as volunteer coaches in sports other than baseball, according to a motion for preliminary approval filed this week. The coaches, by NCAA rule, were prohibited from receiving pay or benefits. The rule was rescinded in January 2023 and the lawsuit was filed two months later in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California to resolve wage-fixing claims.
