The article pointed out that taking athletes to court could severely damage the chances of that particular school landing future top players when that company/collective has taken previous players to court.
This is such gutless bullshite. You think a player that's offered a bunch of money by, for instance, Raising Cane's to play at LSU is going to refuse because Cane's sued a player three years ago for not fulfilling his end of the agreement? horseshite. Most players will think, "That guy three years ago was an idiot. Where do I sign?"

Do some people really think the kids and their posse's are going to sit around weighing their options with money squarely in their face? Nah.
This is where the schools should come to some accord or face the consequences of donors possibly withholding money to the collectives.
I'd be super-pissed if my collective contribution was totally wasted on a kid who tried to take the money and run and skip out of the agreement.
IDK how to do that in the legal climate, but something needs to be done to mitigate some of the fraud and abuse of the new system. It's plenty out of hand already without the athletes getting any more bright ideas about double dipping.
