I have still never seen anyone explain how this works with Title IX
I think it works with Title IX because it doesn't have anything to do with what the schools are providing in terms of opportunities to men and women equally. It simply allows all players in all sports, regardless of gender, to be able to earn an income in the open market. I don't believe Title IX would even be applicable in this. I'm sure if the NIL based bills have been proposed both in the NCAA and at the federal level in Congress, then there likely aren't Title IX issues they're worried about.

And making the argument the brand of the school and the school resources provided that opportunity for them to make more money is going to be the easiest and frankly valid argument against that idea.
No one is going to buy the defense that Ohio State and Alabama providing the best facilities in the world for their football team with a 100 year trail of boosters and support does not advantage the football team.
This becomes a shite show immediately
