It’s this, unless it violates antitrust law.

It’s not that complicated. We’ve said it 1000 times: Legitimate rulemaking authority doesn’t empower you to break the law.

Feel free to bookmark this post. The SEC’s federal suit will get tossed 10/13 & then will have no shield against newly pending contempt motion.

We’ll see if they try this gambit while that’s playing out. If Sankey wants to risk jail time maybe.


Antitrust laws were never meant for this crap.

And I think your claims are without merit.

There are tons of franchisee businesses out there. Lets take McDonalds for example. While they all operate under the McDonalds name, they are actually many stores and have different owners.

However McDonalds will do things like dictate the menu, the prices and so forth. McDonalds will also force franchisees to certain standards, and if they do not meet those standards they can be removed from the brand. They will also not allow people who are fired at one location to work at another in some cases.

Are they violating anti-trust laws? It's a bunch of businesses coming together to promote a product, and to price fix that product.

And those are for profit. The SEC is just trying to define standards for their product, no price fixing or any of that other stuff.

If you aren't a monopoly, you are not subject to antitrust laws.

I think you and Georgia boy aren’t very familiar with antitrust law or the NCAA (and its member conferences’) history with it.
