A paid players loses his amateur status and eligibility. Therefore if he plays a game, the school forfeits the game. If the school pays the players, their can no longer compete against NCAA teams.

I believe student athletes have always had that power.
The ability to file a lawsuit does not mean they will win the lawsuit.
Also legal tendencies show that the players who file the lawsuit would likely miss out on most of their eligibility to play in the postseason by the time the decision was made.
I believe some Northwestern athletes tried to sue a few years ago to be treated as employees and the court ruled that employee/employer rules did not apply to student athletes.
Anything could change but it would not likely be a quick decision to overturn current NCAA rules.

Was through the unions ...and the judge ruled that Illinois union laws didn't apply to college athletes.
This law does. .. ...and it is California. Half the laws they have were written solely to file civil suits. They don't want to protect any thing... just want money.

The players have every right to accept pay, and when they do that it is a clear choice they make on their own to give up “amateur status”. The NCAA in no way infringes on their rights by disqualifying them from NCAA competition, as the amateur requirement has always been a part of the rules of participation. ANY ATHLETE is free to make his/her decision to accept financial remuneration at any time and they do so knowing how it affects their status.

NCAA is a private, nongovernmental organization and participation in it is voluntary. The member schools sign on an agree to abide by its rules. Just like a home owners association.
Without the school, the athlete has no notoriety to profit from.
Good luck with that lawsuit.

https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2019/09/13/ncaa-california-college-athletics
On threatening to ban California colleges and universities from NCAA championships
“I don't know that it's meant to be a threat as much as it's a statement of fact, which is that if you have a situation where California has arguably a competitive advantage over the other 49 states in recruiting student athletes, then I think that it throws into question the fundamental fairness of the competition. And that's what we're focused on here. First and foremost, we're focused on the health and well-being of the student athletes. But then the championships are the NCAA and the country's way of manifesting that competition in the most fair way. And if California is operating under a different set of rules, that does not allow the competition to unwind fairly.”

How does that give the "government" control? It actually gives control back to the player. This is the ultimate form of free-market economics, actually...it's basically anti-trust, breaking up an artificial monopoly and artificial salary cap maintained by the NCAA.
And ultimate consequence would likely be to make the rich richer anyhow, since athletes at the most successful Universities - you know, like Trevor, and Etienne, and the crazy-marketable "Power Rangers" from last year - would have been the ones who benefited most.
Grump all you want, but this probably benefits Clemson. Some might say: "this benefits big market teams"...that is actually incorrect, since big-market sports landscapes are crowded with professional teams. What it really benefits is highly successful small-market teams (like Clemson!) that have a huge local following and no local pro athletes to root for.
It probably cements Clemson as a superpower for the foreseeable future. And we're going to argue with this?

I agree that the name, image, and likeness legislation would probably benefit schools like Clemson, at least as long as Dabo is here.
But as I alluded to earlier in this thread, if the legislation were to ever expand to the point where the schools are paying the athletes directly (and several states are already considering this), that will hurt Clemson badly because there are very few schools (Clemson included) that can offer players the kind of money schools like Texas, Ohio State, etc can.

I agree that ultimately it is going to be an antitrust lawsuit, for the California public colleges. I think for schools like Stanford, there will be suit based on restriction of interstate commerce which is delegated to the Federal government.
The hard part for California will be that it is not the NCAA's rule restricting them from going to the NFL. It will be a stretch in my opinion to argue that the NCAA cannot impose rules for participation when there is no requirement, at least by the NCAA preventing the individual from pursuing a pro career.

It kills college football because athletes will gravitate to the $. Small schools won't be able to compete and drop their programs. No football = no Olympic type sports. No sports = no athletic scholarships.
What we'll be left with is a College football environment like professional baseball. A few big market teams will control the landscape. That's why baseball is dying as a sport.
If the kid wants to go pro, go pro. Until then, you are an amateur.

18 year olds to play professionally - perhaps in conjunction with a minor league football system.
And is CFB really an amateur sport? It seems to me like the only thing amateur about is the athletes themselves. Every other aspect of the sport is dripping with money and professionalism.

This is 100% an NFL problem. Currently there is no league available for college players to be paid because of the NFL age restrictions. The NFL is using the NCAA as a developmental program for free. The NCAA was never designed to be a developmental program and is no place for players who are only interested in being paid.

The NFL has those age restrictions so people don't die.
Think back to Mike Bellamy. Had the NFL allowed kids straight out of high school you can assume he would've went, being a high profile 5 star. He would have died taking a hand off with JJ Watt destroying him.
Now, if there was a "developmental" league, it will take much more than just salaries for players. It takes stadium usage, coaches salary, and most importantly, owners and cities.
We've seen leagues like the AAF, which had 8 teams (120ish colleges), and couldn't last a season.
So, if you had an NFL sanctioned "developmental league" and players gravitated to that, you're effectively killing college football again, until that league folds, but at that point you have players that have no NCAA eligibility that will not be on NFL rosters (because they're in a developmental league).
I think the NFL is doing just fine, and they will continue on without a problem. The NFL age restriction is for player safety more than anything else.

Ohio State, Texas, etc more. Clemson still has a looooong way to go to catch up in terms of fan base.
Wouldn't it also open things up for billionaire benefactors like Phil knight and the former T Boone pickens to just buy teams? Currently they can only have an indirect effect on recruiting by donating tens of millions for facility upgrades, but this could allow them to just establish a fund at the university to pay players.

Oct 1, 2019, 9:40 AM

100 grand worth of stuff and actually being given 100 grand. Free room and board is great, not denying that, but the value of a college education varies greatly from one person to the next. For some student athletes the education is literally worthless. And no matter how valuable that education ends up being down the road, it does nothing for the kids that come from insanely poor families during the 3-5 years they are in school.
Lets also be honestly here, quite a few of these kids are being guided through college by support staff so that they can remain eligible for sports and aren't actually learning anything in the process.

This is such a slippery slope. Right now, this is about player name, image, and likeness. If it stays this way, the consequences stay relatively minor (limited to ineligible players and vacated/forfeited games in which those players played). But there are already considerations being made in multiple state legislatures to allow schools to pay payers directly. If this happens, assuming the NCAA holds its ground, lawsuits pertaining to this issue will go all the way to the Supreme Court. It will be up to SCOTUS to determine the fate of the NCAA's existence...and if they rule against the NCAA, that's the end of college sports as we know it. It will be the wild west where anything goes. Recruiting will turn into bidding wars, and only the richest programs will survive while the rest go bankrupt.

NCAA doesn't make money.. the people working for the NCAA do.
All the money is distributed to the conference and then to the schools. Most of it is put right back into the school... buildings ...and scholarships.
The only people who are truly making money are the top coaches.
I'm sure many coaches make less than the value of a 4 year scholarship .

I'm lost on this, much clarification needed:
Sep 30, 2019, 11:13 AM
|
|
I assume "name, image, likeness" does NOT include any logo or reference to the university on their jersey or anywhere else. Or you've got a serious problem of trademark violation. That's a big deal.
So let's say Trevor wants to make money off his pic - but he can't use Clemson's logo or tiger paw in the pic, or even on a jersey. That belongs to and has been created by Clemson University. (and is, in fact, much of the reason he is enjoying success - the university has given him that opp. through their marketing machine)
If Trevor wants to go sell lemonade and put his picture on the cup, so be it, no problem.
To me, that's the biggest sticking point of the whole thing - using the University's logo to make money for yourself.

You lose the collegiate athlete part when our head coach makes the comment he will quit if athletes are paid while he receives a 750,000 direct deposit once a month. Easy enough to say that then. I love what dabo has done for us, the coaches don’t go on the field and do permanent damage to themselves. If we’re going to say it’s college sports, you shouldn’t be able to charge $110 for one football ticket. NFL games face value is never more then $85 for the cheapest seat...

At the same time that coach is working pretty much year round, 60-80 hours a week.
When the athletes are on summer break (unless they choose to stay in school) the coaches are studying film, recruiting, spending time away from family, etc.
To act like coaching doesn't take a lot away from someone is ridiculous. Are they paid well? Yes. Is their job easy? Hell no.

Here is the problem.... the NCAA should still be able to drop whole-sale programs. So say hello to either the NAIA or new "association". There is no requirement than any school participate in the NCAA.
Next, the item would be that the NCAA would full-stop using player's images and then look to schools to enforce any player trying to use the school's logo or colors to prevent a player from using a brand.
Of course, the easiest way to nerf the whole thing is to provide all players of all sports a % cut for all endorsement deals. Thus the "TL16" player get the same cut as the womens 100m backstroker. I am fine keeping this in a trust payable upon graduation as a way to promote graduation. Does not matter if it is UCLA or Wake or Charlotte. IF someone plays D1 NCAA sports, at the time of graduation, they get the cut based on the years they were eligible to play (no pay for redshirt or transfer years).

I used to be totally against any form of payment towards any student-athlete, but I am in support of the California bill. The reason I support it is the basic argument that any student, athlete or not, should be able to make money. This is no different from the non-athletes finding working while in school to make extra money. I did. And who are we to say that we should stop a Trevor Lawrence or an Travis Etienne from getting extra money if someone comes up to them and offer them money to be in a commercial and promote their product?
And I don't think that the NCAA's answer of "we're not going to include your state in any postseason" or even "we won't let the teams in your state play with us" is the answer.
I think that the NCAA might actually have to come up with a real solution this time. They've been punting problems and provided inconsistent rules and penalties for year, but I think this bill will force their hand.
Now for the record, I am against the bill in New York where they are trying to make college pay the student-athletes (all of them) something like 15% of what the athletic program is making.

No, but who are you say that someone else should not?
Again if you can be athletic and someone ask them to be on a commercial for $1000 a week, do you think you should have the right to tell them no?
Meanwhile, it's okay for the regular students to go get whatever jobs they can without getting in trouble.
How is that fair.

To get up at 8am to take his class.
Bout as fair as a kid with a 1100 SAT score and top of his class getting rejected while another kid gets accepted with a 700 sat score and a full ride scholarship worth over 300 grand.
Or a basketball ball player getting a free trip to Italy while another student struggles to buy his oodles of noodles.
Or the Po po telling me I can't have me heroin.
Kinda like that...stupid rules.

Regular students have little time to work jobs. Not sure when you went to school, but when I went, I had no time to work period..
And when I did work which was be a ref for intramural games it was 9 dollars an hour. Trust me they will make sure athletes are paid way more than that. It's bs and I still have my student loan debt yet these kids go into the workforce with an education and no debt to deal with.

I found the time as a full-time student, if I wanted to have some extra money without asking my parents.
So just because you're still paying for your loan debt and someone else is not, should that give you the right to stop someone else from making more money? I don't think so.
So a beautiful female student gets offered $4000 wear a pair for jeans. Should you be able to stop that's not right because you're only making $9 an hour? I don't think so.
And obviously the California governor doesn't think so either. And guess what? Others are looking into it, like the states of North Carolina and South Carolina.

And people choose them...so some 1 has the right to tell us all what is allowed and not allowed. In this case thes NCAA has that right. The student has the right to reject or accept.

The law also allows me to violate the rules of my homeowners' association. That doesn't mean the HOA can't show me the door.

And my HOA would do the same.
But what would the HOA do if many of their resident want something and if they don't get it, they leave? Even worse, that those vacated homes become less attractive to buyers? Does the HOA stick to their stance?
We'll certainly see what the NCAA will do, and they have 3 years.
All I'm saying is that I don't believe that the NCAA kicking schools out or not playing in a state with this new law is the right answer. If that's what the NCAA wants, we'll see how long they hold out until their bottom line ($$$$$) start to suffer.

I don’t think the NCAA has to do anything. Just enforce the rules they already have.
If a kid in Cali gets paid for selling autographs then they become ineligible, forfeit their wins that the player participated in, probation, post-season bans, etc.
If they try to ban Cali schools or stop playing there then there will be basis for antitrust cases which they would probably lose.

So.... there's that
Plus everyone had rules
HoA City County State Fed
The United states government hasn't legalized marijuana in any state. At any time the feds can bust into a California weed shop and shut that mother down, confiscate everything, and throw the owner's in the pokie.
They don't care if California passed a rule or not.

Okay, well I guess we'll see what the NCAA will do, huh?
We'll see just how stringent the NCAA will be, especially since other states are already considering this law.

Glad your google works.
I'm talking about this bill now becoming a state law, not some NCAA rule.
We'll see who's going to blink. The California governor already said FU to the NCAA, and that's why he signed this bill.

The way the article reads, California student athletes can still compete but will be banned from championships sanctioned by the NCAA.
"if college athletes in California profit off their name, image and likeness, they could be found in violation of the organization's longstanding amateurism rules. If that were ruled true by the NCAA, teams and athletes from the state of California would be subject to a ban from NCAA championship competition."

Does anyone know how this law applies to high school athletes? If California restricts eligibility for its athletes at the high school level while trying to define eligibility for the NCAA, the law doesn't stand a chance.

At the end of the day, I think all CA did is establish urgency for the NCAA to adopt a position. The CA law does not go into effect until January 2023 and by then you can expect the NCAA will have created their own plan that will address the issue and keep everyone eligible.

Just pay them to play their sport but let them fend for themselves otherwise. No free education, food or anything like that. Most of them would never set foot on a college campus anyway, and obviously don't value a free education or they wouldn't be asking for more, so give them some cash then send them packing when they get drafted or someone better comes along. For 98% of them its going to be a big step down from the current arrangement.
