5 things that fix the college football system.

1. All players sign contracts as members of a NCAA player's collective. They must return any NIL money if they con't complete the term of their contract. Also players must remain academically eligible.

2. Bring back one year sit-out for transferring. No exceptions except if a coach leaves or a school is hit with sanctions or gets blown up or something.

3. "Salary Caps" for teams based on conference affiliation.

4. 5% of coaches salaries go to the "Jimmy and Joes NIL" fun to be shared equally among all players.

5. 5% of conference distributions to schools go directly to players, split evenly.


This way... contract law makes this thing stick and avoids the NCAA losing in court over and over. Players are heavily disincentivized from transferring, which is the only real sport-breaking problem right now. The money players get is more formalized, standardized, and (slightly) evenly distributed. Conferences and institutions have to lead this charge. The NCAA is dead in the water.

1. Illegal under federal law. Sherman Antitrust Act violation. Violates NCAA vs Alston and Tennessee/Virginia vs NCAA.

2. Illegal. Sherman Antitrust Act violation.
Interstate Commerce Act violation if the transfer is across a state line. Violates Ohio vs NCAA.

3. There is no salary cap on NIL. Same legal basis as #1.

4. Never going to happen. It would violate every coaching contract in the USA.

5. Moot. Each school will be able to direct up to around $22 million in revenue sharing to athletes next year.

Completely unworkable.

If the NCAA got an antio-trust exemption similar to the NFL's, could things move in the direction of the OP's general concept ??

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

That's the ONLY way any of it could happen.


Oct 25, 2024, 7:29 AM

It takes Congress passing a bill to get it.
Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) tried last year.
He couldn't get his draft bill out of committee. The general feeling I get was that there is no interest in doing something that will continue the wrongs of the old NCAA system.

Only pro sports get AT exemptions, and not all of them do. In order to get one, it takes a completely professional, single league,
athletes paid fair market value, player unions and collective bargaining, union contracts, and the right to strike.

Those things are a pretty clear different set of circumstances than pro sports.

Lots more divergent interests in college sports, for one thing. I think that's why the BIG and the SEC. If they form a NFL sized super league, they can cut ties with the NCAA and form a model that is legal, more profitable, and more sustainable.

The downside? It's going to suck for everybody else, including Clemson.

Bluff,

I generally agree with your post, but it seems that more people in Congress might be willing to consider anti-trust legislation after considering that their state schools are going to be among the ones fuckedover by the way things seem to be headed with the SEC and the BIG.

Of course, it would take some adaptations to work with college programs, but modified fair market value, player unions and collective bargaining, union contracts, and the right to strike sounds better to me (and for college football) than all of the collateral damage that will be caused by a superleague.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

...but it might actually help the P2.

If they get their way to dominate the NCAA, then an antitrust exe option actually helps them and hurts everyone else.

If they split from the NCAA, they can argue that's evidence of free market competition so no anti trust exemption is needed.

Anti trust exemptions apply to the entire entity, not just employer/employee relations.

Agreed. The judge has already laid out the basics. The final wording is going to change it some. She was adamant that limiting earning potential and taking back NIL money will not happen. Just read the legal briefs people. College football is not ever going to be what it was.

You keep saying "nothing will ever work" and you just say "according to this legal case" but you have no idea all the ways that new cases and new collective bargaining could completely overcome all of that.

If you think college football will always be this wild and ungoverned then you are being ridiculous.

There is no federal case that invalidates contract law. Anyone can form a collective and enter freely into a contract. The NCAA cases do not involve contracts.

If you wanted to make yourself look silly, you e succeeded beyond your wildest dreams.

NFL? They have a federal antitrust exemption. The NCAA does not. They tried to get one. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) couldn't even get the bill out of committee.

"Nothing will ever work"??? That's 🐂💩.
In fact, I've said things are working just fine in terms of attendance, TV viewership, and money.

There isn't going to be collective bargaining without the athletes getting employee status. That's not going to happen until the Dartmouth basketball team case is decided.

Football wokd and ungoverned? It's not that now. It's governed by state and federal law and by market forces.

There are multiple federal laws that invalidate illegal contracts as cited above.
If you're right, then Mafia hit contracts are legal.

1. You are way too emotional about this topic. You have clearly taken some sort of unhealthy attachment to this topic as you treat it like some kind of moral topic that is evil for anyone to have an opinion you don't approve. The fact you lash out and insult people over a different perspective shows you are a small, ugly person.

2. Your hypocritical and ironic (mis)use of concepts. For instance, you accuse me of strawman (which is changing the other person's argument into something easier to defeat) yet you compare my point about contracts to murder being legalized. To any healthy person, this would be an obvious folly, yet your damaged @ss went through with it.

3. Your whole urgent and emo argument hinges on the fact that college athletes have a different status than professional athletes. And you pretend that this is impossible or extremely unlikely to ever change. If athletes get employee status OR some legal workaround is crafted that equates to that, then there is nothing I said that is impossible. The coaches salary is unlikely, and I never expect it to happen, but I like the idea. Your childish, emotional behavior over such a benign thing exposes way more about your real personality than it does anything about the debate on this topic.

So why don't you calm down and realize you are on a sports message board? If you get off by freaking out and throwing insults, then at least be self-aware about it.

Oh, and there's this thing called Google.
You should use it to catch up with the court cases the NCAA has lost. If you were current, you'd realize that what you want
is blatantly illegal

Your rant signed at me shows they you use emotions, not facts, then project the opposite of that reality.

You accidently got one thing right.
This is a moral issue. The NCAA hit away with exploiting the athletes for decades. The schools, the NCAA, and the coaches got rich while the athletes couldn't accept a free meal.

Anyone that supports that or that tries to get in the way of the remedy is indeed staking out the low moral ground. Yeah, you did that. Shane on you!

if Mahomes wanted to sign a 3 mil dollar endorsement deal with the KKK he could. The NFL couldn't stop him. He'd certainly lose his job due to some ethics and conduct clause.. but they couldn't stop him from getting that 3 mil .

So when it comes to the original intent of the NIL, you are absolutely right. And nobody should regulate that. Players should be allowed to make unlimited money from whatever advertisers in the free market bid for based on supply and demand.

But what NIL actually is now, is a disingenuously packaged offer, unofficially attached to football programs, that amount to pay for play, without the benefit of an actual legal contract. It's wide open and extremely easy to leave one or all parties unsatisfied.

So when I say a cap on NIL, I should have said a cap on pay for play. NFL players don't rely on endorsements to get paid. They are an extra benefit. The richer programs have co-opted this as an ad-hoc pay for play. This mixed with the current version of the transfer portal has made things wild. Thankfully many programs have been burned by their over-use. But an excess of money doesn't learn lessons like budgeted money.

The fact is that NIL is what exists right now, it's 100% legal, it's 100% illegal for the NCAA or schools to interfere in it, and complaining about it dies nothing.

Federal laws override any contract that violates them.

That includes anything that falls under antitrust violations, interstate commerce violations, or RICO, among other things.

The NCAA blatantly and repeatedly did two of those things. There seriously close to RICO charges of they keep doing it.

They stopped doing it, except for trying to sneak in a clause in the House vs NCAA case. That settlement got tabled because
that clause is not only an antitrust violation, it violates the NCAA vs Alston and TN/VA vs NCAA judicial decisions.

You don't even know what any of those cases are, do you?

I have facts. You have emotions and a lack of knowledge on the topic.

The NCAA can't regulate, interfere with, or limit transfers in any way.

#5 isn't going to fly, either.

Revenue sharing starts next year.
Each school decides how to split it up.
There is no direct relationship between the athletes revenue sharing and coaches salaries or a percentage thereof.

We have what we have unless the NCAA gets a federal antitrust exemption.

Congress has shown zero interest in that.
Senator Timmy Tuberville (R-AL) tried.
He couldn't even get his draft bill out of committee.

That’s a pipe dream. The judge overseeing NIL wording has already said zero restrictions on NIL monies earned. Giving back earned money was one of her sticking points. Great ideas, just not realistic.

I like your ideas but am confused by your last comment about the schools leading as the NCAA is dead in the water. Note the board of governors for the NCAA is made up of leaders from various schools so the schools control the NCAA.

https://www.ncaa.org/sports/2021/5/26/who-are-the-ncaa-board-of-governors.aspx

Looking at the members, it seems it is more focused on DEI and equity than a power team willing to address the needs of the single sport which pays the bills.
