There's a shake-up coming to the NCAA following the House Settlement: Will Kansas Jayhawks basketball dominate the new era of athlete compensation, and what impact will the new rules have on KU Football, Olympic sports and the entire College Athletics landscape?

Derek Johnson breaks down the revolutionary NCAA deal allowing schools to pay athletes directly through revenue sharing.

The discussion covers key figures like Bill Self, Lance Leipold, and the current KU Basketball off-season and how this could be both good and bad for KU.

Johnson also makes a compelling case for the NCAA returning Kansas' 2018 Final Four appearance in light of these changes and back-pay to athletes going back to 2016 that would actually deem Silvio De Sousa eligible and extend KU's Big 12 title streak back to 14 straight.

Tune in for expert analysis on how this landmark decision could reshape college athletics and KU's future success.
