I have pretty much stopped watching the NBA except for the Pacers and don't watch them as often. Not me...I'll hold out til the bitter end! Until XJ drives up in...er Race Thompson motors into my driveway with the other 12 scholarship players demanding I produce a bag full of money, or they'll burn their IU warmups on my porch and all transfer to Purdue on the strength of a Purdue Pete bobblehead deal! 😉 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not giving the NCAA any breaks because they refused to adapt when the writing was on the wall, before and after, the NIL was passed. I do wonder: are the NCAA’s hands tied? With each state having different legislation, can they successfully write or enforce ANY NIL rules?

That was definitely the kickoff. California's NIL law after that was going to put everyone else on uneven footing, and that spurred a lot of other states into action. 12 minutes ago, tdhoosier said: With each state having different legislation, can they successfully write or enforce ANY NIL rules? Nope, not without a ton of lawsuits. That's why I think it's imperative for Congress to get moving on a comprehensive law covering NIL, or all states simply adopt California's law as outlined here. Written by a University of Illinois professor. "For the welfare of college sports, state lawmakers should pass laws—or amend existing laws—to mimic California. Otherwise, D-I schools will lose competitive balance and at the far extremes, face potential antitrust enforcement." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should get something in return other than an education. It’s archaic thoughts and let’s not change things because that wasn’t the way in my times that don’t progress us as a society.

IUFLA Posted May 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 As thought, Northwestern's Pete Nance enters the portal and declares for the NBA. From the article, it sounds like he won't be returning to the Wildcats if he pulls out of the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do know we needs rules and someone(organization) to police them. Sounds like the NCAA needs to get re-tooled to handle the "crisis" or the colleges are gonna have to come up with another idea. And for the record I don't like the idea of the government handling it, but if they must, then so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted May 1, 2022 Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 Saw the transfer from South Dakota St. eliminated UK because he didn't get the NIL deal he wanted and didn't get the role he wanted in the offense.
