This is exactly what happened with the Olympics. They spent decades making believe they were all about amateurism and finally had to face reality.It hasn't "ruined" the Olympics at all. And it wouldn't "ruin" college sports. It will change college sports, though, absolutely. As did letting Black athletes compete, as did giving women some semblance of equality(ish), as did letting freshmen be eligible immediately, etc.
What fallacy did I state?
The separation of football and basketball teams from the schools is right around the corner.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
You're missing the forest through the trees.While that's the upshot of this ruling, it's because that is the limited issue on which the court was asked to rule.But if you read the decision and the concurrence, the writing is on the wall for the NCAA. The court is telling them that a) athletes are employees and b) the NCAA is subject to antitrust regulations like any other business. If and when a case arrives challenging the NCAA's ban on other forms of compensation, the court has dropped a pretty huge hint on where it's going to come down.
the athletes are going to love it when they have to pay taxes on their $80,000 scholarships.

Smart universities will account for that. Dumb ones won’t and they’ll have to fight for the leftovers.
Ha! I thought so. When you have some intelligent thoughts on the issue, we'd like to hear them.
Account for them how? I assume you mean paying them more? Seriously interested because I probably missing something.
I thought a portion of their scholarship was taxable already, just like any other scholarship. The amount to pay for non qualified expenses, and room and board.edited for epelling
I hope this was intentional
They're not excluded, but I think you'd be hard-pressed to find many schools interested in providing additional compensation to the hardworking members of the cross country and bowling teams (regardless of how much prestige a winning cross country season may bring).
Is it reasonable to assume that under Title IX that anything given to the Football and MBB will also have to make its way to other sports? In the simplest of terms based on what SCOTUS was addressing (i.e., educational expenses) if all the football players get new laptops, would other athletes need to get the same. Then, if it gets into payment down the road...will that all be addressed through Title IX?
So the cross country and bowling teams have student athletes and the men's basketball team has MU employees?
Does this take effect immediately? For instance, could we make an offer to Garcia today to entice him to come back?
Why not all employees?
Yeah, the guy trying to tie this to Michigan State's Nassar settlement is the one with intelligent thoughts on the issue.
Sorry you missed the point being made. Maybe next time.
