The more I hear about this from the media, the more it sounds like this is not going to be the "Slam Dunk Case against the NCAA" allot of people initially thought it was going to be.Basilio has a good read on this today. Probably should read.
Doesn't sound real good for UT.
(go ahead negaBasilios)
we really need more schools to join forces here... I just think they are afraid toThe more I hear about this from the media, the more it sounds like this is not going to be the "Slam Dunk Case against the NCAA" allot of people initially thought it was going to be.And yes I am concerned about losing Nico. I know that would take allot of bad luck, but when is the last time UT football had any good luck?
The media is garbage in every regard, and sports media's obvious decline was the first indicator of where "journalism" was going in this country. Basilio is right approximately 4% of the time.The more I hear about this from the media, the more it sounds like this is not going to be the "Slam Dunk Case against the NCAA" allot of people initially thought it was going to be.And yes I am concerned about losing Nico.

So letâs see Basillo has a more informed legal opinion than the judge that said the ncaa is likely to lose?The more I hear about this from the media, the more it sounds like this is not going to be the "Slam Dunk Case against the NCAA" allot of people initially thought it was going to be.And yes I am concerned about losing Nico.

I don't see the NCAA doing a thing until this matter is over. Anti-trust damages under the Sherman Act are awarded as treble damages (meaning damages are tripled). The NCAA is not going to do anything to risk providing the court an opportunity to award any damages, the amount of which will be tripled upon final adjudication. Especially given that Judge Coker expressly stated that the NCAA is likely to lose this matter unless further evidence that favors the NCAA is presented.Since this is your world, I'll defer to your opinion, but without the injunction, I can see the NCAA going full speed ahead on making Nico ineligible for next season. They won't need a long, drawn out investigation on this one. That being the case, I'd have to wonder if Nico and his family will hang or maybe hit the portal? Hard to "prove" damages in recruiting or portal departures so even if we win, the "damage" we fans see will be a moot point in a court room, no? So even if we win, we still lose...at least that's how it looks to me. From my perspective, the injunction is a must. Without it, everything we've pointed to by signing Nico has the potential to go up in smoke.
EXACTLY.I worry about that too, but Iâm hoping this past week has sobered up the NCAA.
I donât put anything past the AA, but I donât think it would make judge Corker happy if you spent all week arguing âno irreparable harm to student athletes,â then the first thing you do after the injunction is denied is go suspend a student athlete.
There are four factors that must be met to obtain a TRO. The party seeking the TRO must demonstrate that:I am in no way an attorney, so do not take what I say as anything other than a laymanâs opinion.
But, with the wording from the judge, it seems to me he is insinuating to the NCAA that they need to figure out a way out of this or they likely will lose all power in the NIL case. SoâŚNCAA, you need to rethink this and see if you REALLY want to pursue what may lead to your ultimate demise.
Would love a practicing attorneyâs view on that.
