Not the NCAA's fault that their hand was forced by politicians. You can say that the NCAA should have done something sooner and to a lesser extent, but government could still get involved and have the same outcome.
I think the point is the pols might not have gotten involved if you didn't have millionaire old white men telling 18-21 year old kids they can't get a job (against the rules) or have a formal form of payment beyond their scholarship.
If we're lucky and this thing settles at $50K per kid, that is likely way more $$ than what would've settled things a year or two ago.

Very much this. Show me any other student who is prevented from having a job during the summer to help make ends meet even though that student "has free tuition, food, boarding, etc."
