I look forward to the argument in court that the NAIA and NJCAA are legitimate alternatives to the NCAA member schools.
That being said, it would be advantageous for those programs to jump on the bandwagon and amend their rules ASAP to allow players to make money. It won’t do a lot but it would be a fun news story to follow

Don’t stop there on your slippery slope. Little leaguers with shoe deals, pop warner players in car dealership ads. Cats and dogs living together, ITLL BE MADNESS

Totally agree. Come play for this private high school, we will pay your tuition and buy you a new car. What's the difference in a 16 year old looking for work and an 18 year old in the eyes of the law?

Got one thing right.

I guess you are correct. That's why LeBron didn't attend college. He was ruled ineligible by the NCAA. So with this law, this opens the door for it to happen more frequently.

This will result in the California Collegiate Athletic Association. Other states will follow suit with similar legislation or the NCAA will sue to block this law before it takes effect and will be mired in legislation for 10 years. This California bill will be debated at the US Supreme Court. At that time, the SCOTUS will rule in favor of the California bill and all of the other states that have passed similar legislation will move forward with their own laws.

You’re absolutely right but I seriously doubt the ncaa will walk away from all the revenue the california schools put in their pockets. This is still america and money is the god.
Not to mention if Florida and other large states soon pass similar legislation.

Iowa (and other states) private schools with recruiting advantages dominate state championships because they are allowed to play against public schools
And this is why the NCAA won’t allow new paid organization’s member schools to play NCAA schools.

Lebron didn’t attend college because he didn’t have to to get to the NBA. The NFL isn’t dropping it’s rules for draft eligibility any time soon so the NCAA is left holding the bill for football

If a total of 3 states pass similar legislation, then the NCAA will fold like a cheap suit. California is 1. If Florida is 2, then it will only take 1 of Texas, Ohio, or North Carolina to seal the deal.

Unless of course they level the playing field so that anyone can pay anyone anywhere to do anything

I won’t pretend to know enough here to add anything valuable. But tylerdurden makes the most sense to me in this thread.

Oh they’re going to pass it. Legislators are lawyers. Lawyers want lawsuits. What will probably eventually happen no matter what the outcome with the NCAA is that college football will not be as profitable as it is now. California, Texas, New York, and Florida schools (and maybe Chicago) will dominate college football because that’s where all the money is. Outside of those areas, people will not watch college football. Sorry Bama, LSU, Georgia, Oklahoma, Clemson, Ohio State, etc...you’ll be left out. Your fans won’t give a crap about watching those other schools because there isn’t any reason to pick one to be loyal to.

A big part of sports that makes it entertaining is the attempt to try and make the field level.
Is it always going to be perfectly level? No that would be improbable. But you at least have to put some regulations.
If you have it completely unregulated a few teams will be the only contenders every year.

So you think the state of Georgia is just going to sit on its hands and refuse to adopt a similar law out of principle, as if the main football figure in the state is going to let the college game all but disappear because it means his players have an opportunity to earn money?
Ditto South Carolina, Louisiana, and Alabama?

States will also see this as a big money grab for them. Imagine all the tax revenue we can get off these college athletes now? More money is the name of the game for the government.
I guess when you really think about it. How many running backs and quarterbacks can a team have? You will still be limited in the number of players you can have on your team. Maybe it will regulate itself. If I am a 5 star QB and go to this school where they already have two 5 stars, why would I go there? The NCAA would have to crack down on transfers. Otherwise, you would have a player wanting to go to the team that offers him the most every year.

People are acting like there’s a level field in college football now when the same top 8 teams occupy the top of the rankings every year. If anything, this creates an opportunity for parity that isn’t ever going to exist otherwise and maybe that’s partly what freaks people out.
