SCOTUS decision will have far reaching


Jun 21, 2021, 3:03 PM

effects.

Money is not unlimited. The financial demand on atheletic department's will be significant. The need to raise money will pass to the consumer...ticket holders and IPTAY members. Schools with large endowments, alumni base, professional programs (med or vet school or law school) will likely absorb the impact better. If financial resources become scarce, schools may have to make choices to reduce who they help and underprivileged athletes may not have a many opportunities to get an education.

A new tier system may be created. Schools like Yale and Harvard may again be able to compete for a football NC because the value of the education they provide is worth more. Schools like Clemson may not be a top tier football school...may be a 2nd or 3rd tier school based on available financial resources.

Also, think about the challenges that may arise from EEO complaints. Legal costs to schools. Disparity in pay between male and female athletes. From a cost of an education point of view, there should be no difference from one athlete to the next.

It may bring racial discrimination complaints, again there should be no difference from one athlete to the next.

There was a shift in the landscape of college athletics today....in the next 2-3 years we'll see the changes. Hopefully they were not tectonic shifts.

I don’t have time to look up what half of the words in your post mean, but I can tell you one thing for sure. Players like Sammy Watkins and Trevor Lawrence aren’t going to play football at Harvard and Yale as long as Clemson has a slide, Coach Dabo Swinney and a hill to run down.

Clemson is going to do what Clemson does no matter what the rules are. Winners win.

This will wreck havoc. After dust clears, we may see a return to Division III kind of competition. Coaches’ salaries and ridiculous facilities aimed to appeal to 17 year olds may have brought on the Supreme Court angst. Going to be interesting to watch.
