Thelonebillsfan Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 NCAA desperately trying to kick the can down the road when the obvious solution to continuing their organization is to turn into an NFL style pro system and lobby the govt to figure out Title IX exemptions for Football and Basketball. Just pay these dudes already, damn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsujin Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Just let them make money through any legal means they can. No need to pay every athlete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramssuperbowl99 Posted April 30, 2020 Author Share Posted April 30, 2020 The devil is in the details here and if you think the NCAA is relenting you aren't looking closely enough: Quote A working group assembled to evaluate potential ways to modernize the NCAA's rules about athletes making money from their names, images and likenesses presented its recommendations to the board of governors during its annual April meeting Tuesday afternoon. The recommendations included significant changes to current restrictions while also leaving room for the NCAA and schools to regulate the types of deals athletes might be allowed to sign in the future and the monetary value of individual contracts. So the NCAA is going to "let" players sign way below market endorsement deals, and then take the difference for the school/themselves. You watch the details on this policy are going to be a joke.

You watch the details on this policy are going to be a joke. Of course they want to make money off of that. Wasn't it Adrian Peterson that called the whole jersey sale thing a joke? This will be even more of one. It's also an additional revenue stream that they can tap into. It's not right, but I would say you are correct with this prediction.

This rules goes into affect, it is going to greatly give tOSU a huge recruiting tool on top of what they already have to offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you have an absolutely massive following, a national brand probably isn't shelling out money for you to advertise. Those local Bama dealerships are likely going to give more money than any national brand. Edited May 17, 2020 by JammerHammer21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope when this is all legal we get a commercial that's promoting some sale where they're "practically giving cars away" and its Saban handing out Dodge Chargers to current Bama players. Also t's and p's Rich Burr. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mse326 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 So the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals just issued a ruling a few days ago say some of the NCAA regulations are in violation of anti trust law. It's not my area of expertise and which regulations are and aren't illegal is kind of confusing. I'll drop a link to the opinion here just in case any one wants to read it https://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2020/05/18/19-15566.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickyt31 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 This is great. This won't hurt the universities anything and players can get paid now. I don't think we will see a difference besides top recruits going to states that approve this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
