Trump wants to change/limit NIL.

I've said this countless times, it's been the same standard for 135 years - reasonableness.

Long before you littered this board with your wall of nonsense, I've been saying that none of the NCAA's rules would be upheld under the Sherman Act. None of them. I discussed how it's a real possibility in the next 5 years that a player like Luka Garza will return to college basketball and make $5 million per year, that the 4/5 year limit will be dissolved, etc. In no way shape or form do I believe the NCAA stands a chance to unreasonably limit free trade with respect to players moving.

Now, that does not mean there are no limits to free trade. The Sherman Act only protects against undue restraints on trade. There are non-solicit agreements, non-compete agreements, contractual limits. Those cannot be put into place right now because of Title IX. Universities and NIL organizations cannot freely contract because they exist under the rubric of Title IX.

All of my suggestions have been promoting a freer market - eliminating Title IX for NCAA revenue sports - so that the players and the schools and collectives are MORE free to contract.

I've always written that the NCAA could have gotten ahead of this to a great extent when the initial lawsuits and legal wrangling commenced, but I was probably wrong in thinking that would have put the issue to bed.

Like you, I think big changes will be coming for the revenue sports. Baseball has a fully-developed minor league system, but football and basketball do not and players not making it at the professional level may want a fallback and looking at recent court decisions relating to eligibility I can easily see your Garza example becoming the case.

As for the proposed Presidential Commission, it may slow things down, but in the long run, I think the market is going to determine where things head regardless of what suggestions the commission would put forward.

As a medical lab scientist, I might add that the vaccine was not deadlier or cause more problems for the patients who received it. That is the most garbage post I have seen in the last couple of years since the data overwhelmingly suggests otherwise.

You have no idea what you are talking about. The vaccine did cause more problems than the disease for me. I had COVID-19 and got minimally sick for several days. But I was required to have surgery to correct the damage the vaccine did to me. An experimental vaccine that I was forced to take against my wiil due to an executive order signed by Joe Biden, regardless of the fact I already had the disease.

Sure you were.

Alum and season ticket holder for approaching 40 years so I bleed maroon and gold. However, I fail to see the connection between the mission of the University of Minnesota and college football. Nil appears to make the connection even more tenuous. I support dropping to D3, no scholarships for athletics, no Saban sized coaches salaries, let pros be pros …in professional leagues. https://regents.umn.edu/sites/regents.umn.edu/files/2024-05/policy_mission_statement.pdf

This has been the U attitude toward athletics since the 70’s. We are not even at the half way point in the college athletics rise to dominance. Do not not turn away and push forward to greatness and the U shall be rewarded. We will not go back to Nils H.

I can only think of a few instances where surgery would have been needed. This is one of them. This is the case study summary. You might find it instructive.

"We herein report a case involving a patient with quiescent ulcerative colitis (UC) in long-term clinical remission whose condition rapidly worsened after receiving a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination, leading to colectomy due to toxic megacolon. The patient received the fifth dose of the Spikevax (mRNA-1273) vaccine and experienced a severe flare-up of UC 6 days later. Pathologic findings of the surgical specimens were consistent with severe active UC concomitant with cytomegalovirus infection. Because mRNA vaccines stimulate both humoral and cellular immunogenicity, it is important to note that they can be a triggering factor for the relapse of UC."

This is an example of an underlying condition that the vaccine flared an autoimmune reaction. Patients with autoimmune disease are often counselled by their physicians about the risks of getting a vaccination that might trigger a reaction like this. Failure to consult a physician prior to vaccination is always an at risk decision. Nobody was required to take the vaccination if they had a prior condition. There were waivers for such problems. You were not forced to get the vaccine. You were forced to either get it or choose the waiver. At no time would any health care worker inject you without your consent, even during the pandemic.

You mean the disease Fauci, WEF, and China unleashed on the world to force everyone to give up their rights (for safety) of others due to vaccines which are proven to cause more harm and kill than the virus itself. But yes DJT fault of course. When you see a sheep’s pasture I’m sure you see family

Lol there is no bigger flock of ewes than the group you’re aligned with homeslice.

But back to football I would agree with others here that Saban is the wrong figurehead for the correct move of putting some standards on college sports and payments. I highly doubt a group he is involved with will provide sound and ethical strategy but change is needed. We will see what happens.

This has nothing to do with my situation, which had nothing to do with an underlying condition and everything to do with an experimental vaccine that was not sufficiently tested. Just like during the pandemic you are generalizing to support your point of view. You cannot know every person's situation, which is why general mandates are almost always a bad idea.
