So, how does this affect NIL? Is this across the board, or (according to one article) does it only apply to TN and VA, thereby giving them an advantage over the rest of the NCAA schools?

NCAA got their lunch handed to them.  It's across the board ramifications.

Kind of what happens when you crack open Pandora’s box.

Literally saying "you're not allowed to have rules."

At least the NBA has 2,3,4,5 year contracts.  In. CBB EVERYONE is a potential “one and done” at their school (ie they can go to the NBA or transfer to another school). 
 

I can’t imagine what a pain in the @$$ it would be to be a college coach these days but I guess that it’s somewhat offset since you receive 2-15 million for sucking and getting fired.

Without an antitrust exemption, they'll keep losing cases like this. I think to convince Congress to give them that exemption, they'd have to follow the pro model with NCAA/schools and a players union negotiating a CBA that includes player contracts.

College bbal is going to become a joke We went from wanting players to get some spending money them them being basically nba players. Soon class won't even be required.

That’s actually a big game in the MAAC.  Quinnipiac is in first and Fairfield is tied for second with some others teams

NEVER sleep on the MWC. Rookie mistake, you know better than that.

Well, that’s a shocker. I can’t remember Memphis basketball ever not being gross. It’s in that program’s DNA.

So if I understand you correctly, we should scratch Hardaway off our candidate list?

If we drew up a list of the absolute least appropriate candidates for this job, Hardaway could arguably be #1. But, Jesus, Memphis’ history is just the worst. Dana Kirk going to prison. Larry Finch buying every kid in Memphis and losing anyway. Tic Price nailing an 18yo student. Cal and Derrick Rose. Now Penny. The whole Baskerville Holmes thing. Those are off the top of my head, I’m sure I’m missing another fun guy or 2. It just never stops. Maybe the nastiest program in the country.
