“The complaint alleges that the school treats its male student-athletes “shockingly better” than its female student-athletes. For example, the 85 football players enjoy “palatial locker rooms, their own theatre with seats upholstered in Ferrari leather, nearly-unlimited publicity … and myriad other forms of support that one can hardly imagine,” according to the complaint. Meanwhile, University of Oregon does not provide the women’s varsity beach volleyball team with any practice or competitive facilities, forcing femaleathletes to practice andcompete at a public park that lacks stands for spectators, has bathrooms with no doors on the stalls, and is frequently littered with feces and drug paraphernalia.”
“The complaint also alleges that football team members are given so much publicity and university-driven NIL support that three of the team’s players are listed among On3’s NIL 100 list. Conversely, the complaint notes that no Oregon female athlete is listed.
“Oregon’s female student-athletes are given so much less publicity and NIL support that no female student-athlete receives anywhere near the amounts mentioned on that list,” states the complaint.”
