We should all be rooting for Tennessee in this!! For too long, some programs have bowed to the NCAA, have openly shared infractions, cooperated, only to get hammered. Meanwhile you have minimal fallout from the Adidas hoops scandal, fake classes at UNC, and beyond. The NCAA mission is to "Provide a world-class athletics and academic experience for student-athletes that fosters lifelong well-being." They use this type of BS to justify their existence. We need to support the Vol's in this fight...if their NIL collective is truly providing $8MM+ to single athletes, good for them!!

I think maybe where the NCAA messed up initially is by not considering an earnings cap.
I know it's hard to gauge where that should be, people are still going to cheat, it's a free country, etc., but I think the wild variance between top and bottom tier programs will eventually cause even more of a competitive imbalance.

The supreme court ruled in favor of NIL, not pay to play.
