Suits me, I would've loved to have been paid cash money to run.

There are a world of legal hurdles to overcome, but I'm thinking the O'bannon case has legs.

As far as I am concerned title IX needs to be amended to reflect the financial reality of college sports. The unintended consequences of good intentioned legislation has killed small sports like mine at schools with non-positive revenue producing athletic departments. Girl runners at most colleges are slow beyond belief. A 20m 5k gets a girl a hard look at a lot of schools.

And screw tech, those pencil necked geeks ought to go down a level In football anyway.

If O'bannon is successful, it will alter the money sports. If I was an AD I would work to get ahead of the case. It is never good when a court tells you what you have to do.

truer words have never been written...unfortunately most people don't get into an AD position without having an ego the size of Saturn so they won't do anything until forced to and then they will bitch and whine about it the rest of their careers....
