    A new era in college athletics — one North Texas has spent months preparing for — has finally arrived. Federal judge Claudia Wilken signed off on the settlement in House v. NCAA on Friday night.

    Colleges across Texas have been waiting patiently for the dynamics to change when it comes to athlete compensation with the approval of the House v. NCAA settlement. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott gave schools a jump on the new era on Thursday, when he signed HB 126. The law went into effect immediately and allows colleges to pay athletes directly for use of their name, image and likeness. The new standards in Texas line up with what is expected to take effect nationally in the next few days.
