“The NCAA predicts “Disarray” and the end of college sports, but this rhetoric is notably backed up by zero evidence”

“And it’s not the plaintiff’s fault that the ncaa has decided to regulate NIL and recruitment through a byzantine set of overlapping rules of guidance.

How would you ever separate it though? Collectives would only deploy middle men to make their pitch. The pitch will still be there.
I dont think its about that.

And that's where I get lost in the argumentation and who and where someone's authority stops. Moreover, where anti trust law at a Federal Level will be used to review this lawsuit.

On one hand Scotus it feels like they will side with NCAA on issue of pay to play, before a prospect has signed. Or, take easy route and fall back on State Law, only wanting to keep one or two key details on the table.

On other hand. The NCAA certainly fits the bill as a monopoly. If Courts truly want to protect rights of student athletes, whom they've deemed no different than employees then they need to build upon the case law

I think the TRO and injunction will be crucial to be a predictor of future rulings.

This is an excellent breakdown of the goings on, which speak regular person. Lay terms versus legalese.

i don’t have a problem with either one unless it is 100% proven someone was fixing games…. As for steriods…. it seems disingenuous to me that MLB knew they were using and hyped all of these record breaking events.

It sort of reminds me of the NFL claiming to want player safety while showing video after video of players being knocked out.
MLB was powerless against the players union dating back to Curt Flood. They made the most of it…until Congress intervened. I don’t know if you praise them for doing the right thing after being empowered, but they jumped both feet in and have the most effective drug policy of all the professional leagues. No fan of them…but credit due.
 
"The NCAA waits until page 16 — two-thirds of the way into its brief — before it defends the NIL-recruiting ban on the merits. And even then, the NCAA defends a world that doesn’t exist," Skrmetti said in the response.

"It says it must 'prohibi[t] NIL compensation' to protect amateurism, competition, and athletes. But NIL compensation is allowed now. The question is not whether college athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness. The question is whether the NCAA can make them get paid an artificially depressed amount by depriving them of crucial information. The NCAA has no defense of that practice."
Ouch. Yowsa.
 
Very random, but............

Thinking about some of the UT/UK basketball games I've been to made me think about Stokley Athletic Center

I miss that place...........

Great place to watch a basketball game. Most of my memories from there were from ROTC who had classrooms and offices in the building during that time, too.

Thanks! Me likey.
 
Y'all need to simmah down now! All this worry over the NCAA, it's not right when I have to be the voice of reason. Everything will be fine, and we will defeat their heinous allegations in a court of law. Then they can go investigate why Georgia has a drinking problem.

I loved the old tartan surface.

I remember not being able to touch the net at my school gym.....but I could at Stokley........... :)

TN AG went hard in the paint here. Win or lose they did not go lightly into that dark night.
