This new law sounds fine, maybe even like a good idea

It's a necessity. Kids are not gonna keep playing for Universities with admins and a governing body (NCAA) who individually make millions while they get a free education. Not an equal return at all. Something would have disrupted the system. I don't see any potential negative effects for college football. There is no equivalent minor league option. Kids still have to go to the NCAA to make it to the next level For college basketball who does have an established minor league (G-league) and other options such as China or Euroleague this allows Universities to compete for kids who would rather go play in one of those leagues for a year instead of college. For baseball, it will allow colleges to compete with the pros for highly ranked prospects. Literaly, I don't see any detriment to this policy at all besides less future parity. I don't see how this would make the admins of the NCAA or univerisites take a paycut. It would do nothing but increase the bottom line. It baffles me to how anyone can be against it.

Just be honest and end the student athlete charade.

It's minor leagues hosted by colleges.

The end of amateur college football.

Only a handful of teams will be worth watching though.

If the NCAA holds its ground, and the universities stick with them, those kids aren’t going to have an option. Especially the football players.

Other than the top 20 or so programs splitting from the rest and creating their own league, right?

This is a distinct possibility if the NCAA doesn’t play ball.
