California vs. the NCAA
It has been discussed in detail on AGS, but why not here?
Gov. Newsom just signed the bill into law. What will the impact be for the NCAA as well as the California universities?

Re: California vs. the NCAA
I think it will hasten what is eventually going to happen anyway - we will have two different collegiate sporting associations...
One for actual student athletes, and another for university-sponsored professional athletes
It will be good for everybody. No more P5 influence on the NCAA. The football money arms race will cool. 18 year olds not yet mature enough to play in the NFL but without a desire to go to college will have their opportunity.

It doesn’t take effect for an couple years, which will allow time to negotiate. No one knows now what will happen, and to declare how things go now is pure speculation.

Re: California vs. the NCAA
So, a player can now get paid for giving lessons. And probably creating a "camp". It will be interesting to see if they take place on their college campus. Seems like, without proper payment for use of the facilities, that would just be more compensation from school to athlete.

Can player unions be far behind ? As a libertarian, I don’t think this is wrong. I just question what kind of practical impact it will have. How valuable are the NIL rights of an OL player at Cal Berkeley?

Re: California vs. the NCAA
I just heard on the UOP fan board that SDSU is leaning toward siding with the NCAA. That will likely lead to years of lawsuits because the school "isn't following state law." On the side of the schools favoring the NCAA's position, though, is the theory that the law merely ALLOWS schools to allow this blatant professionalism; it doesn't MANDATE it. That COULD end up being the schools' out, though it would likely take the courts to figure that out....

Re: California vs. the NCAA
I have to read the details of this new law but I love that it got the NCAA is up in arms about it. I have no problem with athletes profiting off of their "likeness".
Also heard there are a handful of other states getting similar legislation going. So basically the NCAA needs to evolve on this issue.

Re: California vs. the NCAA
Dan Wetzel of Yahoo! sports had a good column on it:
https://sports.yahoo.com/why-ncaa-shoul ... 14957.htmlThis doesn’t mean schools will start “paying the players.” It means that a player will be allowed to pick up endorsements, sponsorships or employment based on competing for the school.
That can mean everything from a likely No. 1 NBA draft pick grabbing a Nike deal, to the star quarterback getting a state-wide television commercial, to a national champion wrestler signing autographs at a local car dealership, to a softball player going back to her hometown and starting a summer camp training kids.
What it doesn’t mean is the destruction of college athletics, like so many critics are howling.
We went through this in the 1980s when the International Olympic Committee got rid of its “amateurism” rules.

Let's take a peak at it from an angle that this board often views things from:
Let's say there is a 3/4-star recruit that is being wooed by Texas for football. He is feeling good about it but knows that he won't play for 3 years, and his chances of playing as a redshirt-junior is slim. He'll have to work really hard to get on the field. The smart move is to take the offer from Southern Mississippi where he'll have a better chance of playing much sooner. But he can leverage his roster spot at Texas and make more money by giving lessons and other stuff, because he is a Texas Longhorn.
The bottom line is that the idea of a crowded roster at a top program will be less of a deterrent. Maybe not by much, but still less.

Great column. And that is exactly what the point is. If my kid wants to run cross-country, and the National Championship NAU cross-country team is running a camp, and I pay $500 bucks for him to attend, of course the student athletes should get a cut.SDHornet wrote:Dan Wetzel of Yahoo! sports had a good column on it:https://sports.yahoo.com/why-ncaa-shoul ... 14957.htmlThis doesn’t mean schools will start “paying the players.” It means that a player will be allowed to pick up endorsements, sponsorships or employment based on competing for the school.

Another follow up from Wetzel pointing out the hypocrisy of the Big 10 Commish getting a $20M bonus but claiming scholarship athletes getting paid for likeness is a slippery slope.

Re: California vs. the NCAA
How about the NFL and the NBA take a hint from MLB and the NHL and develop a true minor league system? As it is, colleges are forced to play the role and the athlete gains nothing of material value.

That said, the remainder of your statement is relatively correct. Though I would take the position that the degree MOST guys earn would be of value, particularly if their planned foray in to the professional ranks falls through for whatever reason. I've always advocated a true minor league system, myself. Since the affiliates would be mainly in smaller towns, they would give small-town fans a taste of professional football, and if you're fortunate like San Diego is, their (MLB) Class A affiliate is about an hour and a half up the road, so when the big club is out of town, you can easily head out to get a feel for what's coming up the chain. (Actually, the Lake Elsinore Storm, the Pads' California League A affiliate, has about the most beautiful baseball stadium I've ever seen, particularly at the A level, and it's even better than some MLB stadia, particularly those built in the cookie-cutter era of the '70s.)

Re: California vs. the NCAA
The G-League acts as a minor league system, but not all teams have an affiliation. The Blazers, in fact, do not, however, they can send players down to a G-League team for assignment and still retain them. The drawback is that the Blazers players are not really learning the Blazer system when they are there.SuperHornet wrote:The NBA has a one-level minor league system.
