Can the NCAA survive this California bill?

Is it better for the NCAA / University OR ....a Player to profit from the use if his own image

  • ONLY the NCAA and the University ..keep it as it is

  • ONLY The Player...it is his image so he should be able to profit from it

  • They should split the proceeds from the use of a players image

  • It should be held in a Trust for the Player....until the player is no longer on scholarship

This will be tied up in courts for years. Whether it's right or wrong, the law invalidates the bylaws that every member organization voluntarily agreed to.

it sure does....if they dont get it resolved by 2023, injunctions petitions will fly as date gets closer
 
Great for Miami, USC and Notre Dame. Terrible for the SEC and its Foundations . Exacerbates the Foundations' costs. Imagine players choosing bewtwen SoCal or South Beach and KKK Country

Just like country music is dead for everywhere but big cities where everything else rules. Uh huh, you're sadly mistaken of you think what you posted is true.
 
IMO i think that the NCAA needs to get out in front of this because it may be its undoing if they do not.......this is not going away about players getting paid........the NCAA ignoring it will get destroyed in the courts........

All you need is one state to start writing their own laws for player compensation and you will see other states follow suite.

Can’t wait to see the NCAA try to keep up with a dozen laws.

Country music is the most listened to music in the country (by far) in regard to total listeners. It is also the least purchased...........
 
Nah.

Be careful what you wish for indeed...

Miami is one of the most overrated sports market. It doesn't even sniff LA or NYC's sports market.

No arguments from me there. But Miami is a football school, so it's kinda unrelated. It may help boost other sports in those areas? Then again, are Cali schools going to start being better at basketball than a North Carolina, Duke, etc? I really don't know or think so.

The law actually doesn't prohibit the NCAA from enforcing its bylaws. It just prohibits the California member schools from enforcing the NCAA bylaws. The NCAA could declare all California schools ineligible for postseason play as long as those schools don't enforce NCAA bylaws, or kick the California schools out of the NCAA altogether. The NCAA could also refuse to have any tournament games in the state of California. The Ohio State AD has already said they won't schedule any California schools in the future in any sports. ****, the Pac-12 and Mountain West could kick all the California schools out of their conferences.

I don't think it's going to come to any of that, but it'll be interesting to see how this plays out.

PS....they ADDED a provision no athlete can be ruled ineligible by NCAA if they profit within confines of law...

BOOM...BOOM...

so now they have until 2023 to figure this out...

Hence why the delay in it going into law. California can’t just pass a law that makes the NCAA adapt to California law. The NCAA is a voluntary organization and California has been aware of its bi-laws from day one.

are you f[]cking for real?

they very well can pass a law (good/bad idea) that can take effect today, tomorrow, or 100 years from now.

with that said, legislation is often crafted so that massive glass isnt broken instantly in the implementation ramp up...

as i understand, the law also prohibits NCAA from enforcing any punitive or penalizimg action against member schools in whatever and wherever venues they play (i.e. outside CA).

the rub will be if a court enforces Cali's reach outside its borders....
 
Ask not, if the NCAA can survive the California bill. Ask if California can survive the NCAA.

They can pass any law. Doesn’t mean it will be enforceable. You are not seeing this like a contract. One side can’t unilaterally alter a contract.

they are the State govt. You bet they can unilaterally alter an agreement/contract/whatever they pass.

Now does that action hold up in court (this will) is another matter.

Do you understand civics?

Do you know that EVERY government contract has a T for C clause?

Then no private entity would ever enter into a contract with the government.
