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?
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.

No they aren't. THe courts aren't going to accept that level of regulation on players ability to earn money.
All of the court decisions are about not letting a governing body infringe on the rights of the players. You're crazy if you think there's any way any kind of system that limits players is going to be allowed by the courts.
Most of the members of the NCAA are public universities. They don't have the same ability to set rules that the NFL does as a private organizaiton of private companies.
You need to let this idea go, along with any idea that restrictions on players/students will be possible. It is not going to be allowed by our courts.
