They can't, but they can reduce the incentives to NIL as pay-for-play by doing things like instituting a draft and paying players salaries.


Lol. A draft.

There's no way that flies. Can you imagine Congress or the courts being okay with the NCAA telling a player from Florida he has to attend school at Boise State in Idaho if he wants to get an athletic scholarship because they hold his draft rights?

There's no chance at all of that happening.

That's not how it would work.

You either opt into a draft or you go where you want, but sit a year. The NCAA or any member institution is well within their right to do that.

For some players, that's a good tradeoff. For others, not so much.
