If athletes become employees by receiving a salary instead of a scholarship, will this negate Title IX requirements?

It will negate thier amateur status and the NCAA will not allow them to play.

A player's salary should be dependent on the amount of money their sport generates.

Just like the guy who works for the big successful company will make more money than the guy who's business doesn't have any customers.

Almost all of the women's sports wouldn't even exist if not by decree of law.

Basically football and men's basketball make the money, everybody else can go jump in a lake.

What about the football programs that do not make money?

So the 17 private school, and the schools located in union shop states will pull out of the NCAA?

Good. Only the SEC and ACC will be left.

Who will replace Vandy, Wake Forest and Duke?

The Department of Education would have to declare them employees, which isn't going to happen. So, no.

Yeah, but you know, some people actually like the schools and want to see them do well in everything. Screw money. I'm sick and fricking tired of it.
