North Dakota State University (NDSU) faces a looming deadline to decide whether to join the House vs. NCAA settlement. Opting in would allow for increased revenue sharing with athletes and higher compensation, but with stricter regulations on third-party payments. Opting out maintains the current system. NDSU athletic director Matt Larsen is undecided, noting the complexities and potential impacts on the football program's roster and scholarship limits. Several similar FCS schools have already opted in, opening up opportunities for increased scholarships.
