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.
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.

There's no regulation on the players ability to earn money. They can accept as much NIL as they want.

What we've learned from the court cases is that while the NCAA might be able to make rules on what their members can do, they can't make rules on contracts between a player and a third party.
Exactly. Players are now free to accept whatever they want. They'll also get a salary. But nobody can compel a team to play any given player.
This is the only sound option.
