UCLA and Texas too

Neither Cole Hutson or the JMU LB signed NFL contracts

This was the genius of the Big Ten going first. Everyone thinks they passed something that they really didn’t in scope and get all the PR credit while undercutting a CFP contender (LSU)

NIL is not the problem brother. Schools have been able to soak up all the TV dollars etc. for years while players at shit schools got a degree in CTE and then kicked to the curb.

So if the system is buckling because the football roster gets 30M a year, maybe the “adults” in charge need to change their priorities.

Name a sport where the head coach gets more than the players? Who comes to the games to watch the coaches? Brian Kelly got enough to fund a premier roster and some for getting fired.

I’ll start to care about how much a kid gets paid when the economics are aligned with the actual value generators. There’s position coaches making more than the highest paid player at that position at most schools.

Not especially, but I just find that once the season starts, I don't really care about most of that stuff. What conference Maryland plays in, or some stupid transfer drama. That all pales in comparison to the pure scene of a big-time college game, and the wild, unpredictable, fun shit that goes on every Saturday.
Once the games begin, it's still the greatest sport that we have. And, fwiw, compared with 10 years ago, it feels like more teams have more to play for, which makes it even more fun.
it was the greatest sport because every game mattered.

Bud Elliot had an interesting tin foil hat take on this whole situation. Basically that the NCAA was expecting PSA to pass the senate and knew it would be a fight in the house. Therefore they purposely rolled out 5 for 5 in such a way and at such a time that would create these kind of legal challenges. Giving the NCAA a smoking crater to point at and declare the need for federal oversight

Dallas judge directly challenges SEC conference rules:



One commenter said in Texas procedural rules dictate these type TRO's expire at 14 days and plaintiff needs to present substantive evidence to continue/renew the Order...so might be less impactful than it appears.
