Another way of dealing with coaches taking players with them..

Geez, this thing is out of control. A bunch of rich, probably wanna be players using the college athletes like pawns in their game. Not college football. Not cool.

Interesting. Probably legal hurdles, but it is interesting.

The scholarship limit is mandated by Title IX.  The number of coaches does not implicate the Sherman Antitrust Act.  The only reason that it works in the NFL is because the NFL Players were unionized and agreed on the salary cap.  If you allowed the college players to unionize, then something like that could happen.  Otherwise, it violates the Sherman Antitrust Act.  If you want to get around the Sherman Antitrust Act, you need an act from Congress.

I read the whole opinion.  The court case says that the NCAA falls under the ambit of the Sherman Antitrust Act.  Therefore, you cannot limit an individual's ability to earn on an NIL.  But the Sherman Antitrust Act was created by Congress.  It is part of Congress' Article I power.  The courts cannot invalidate congressional action on this specific subject, as long as Congress does not violate something else.

While there is a salary cap in the NFL, there is no limit on the amount players can make through endorsements. The NIL right now is more like the endorsement side. 

Well, I know that Thibedoux was intensely focused on how cryptocurrency relates to athletes.  He said so!


I also want to know what percentage of grad transfers get a Master's degree.
