I haven't read this but if I recall you're a practicing attorney. Have you read this?

How are they backpaying athletes? What is the plan with that? How are they deciding who gets what pay prior to NIL?

I read a couple articles but it didn't go too deep into the meat of what's going on

This isn't my area of law and this sounds like pressure tactics based around a nuclear-level risk of losing at trial.

I believe the back pay at issue in these particular lawsuits is for wages under FLSA.
