The NCAA agreed to pay $ 2.8bn to compensate athletes who were previously barred from earning income off their name, image and likeness ( NIL ) Eight female athletes who competed in soccer, volleyball, and track have filed an appeal.
They argue the deal violates Title IX , the federal law that bans sex-based discrimination in education.
They say the way the money is divided, largely favoring football and men’s basketball players, shortchanges women by more than $1bn .
Their appeal has paused all back payments, potentially delaying them for more than a year .
However, the NCAA 's new plan to allow schools to pay current players directly will still go ahead.
