The NCAA no longer governs over college sports anymore (they are just event planners now), it's the Federal judges, antitrust lawyers, and agents who do.

But it's too late now, too much money being made to incentivized anybody to stop it.

Television Networks, the universities, the collectives and agents all banking.

There will be more death to the traditional Saturdays with the TV networks pushing major games to Thursday and Friday nights, which effects the high school calendar, expanded postseasons, mid-season TV scheduling making it your guess when to travel when games will have a 6-day window to schedule for a TV network.

But we are seeing record-breaking TV ratings, surging stadium attendance, and people tuning in for the portal drama.

Correct on all counts, 93. The NCAA as we knew it is dead. It's all about the money. (What a surprise!) A self-inflicted suicide. Failed to stop the snowball when it was initially forming. Too late now.

Kylon coming out of nowhere like stone cold.

Have to wonder how that would work though. He did declare for the NFL draft, usually that forfeits your remaining eligibility if you did have any.

I think that's what the Bill addresses. The athletes who never make it.

While the ones who had signed pro contracts are not included. This should help smaller schools with it. While more big schools probably won't be able to sign anyone big (Since I Bet they are in the NFL/CFL or whatever)

You're right, it was clarified that if you've already signed a pro contract, you can't return, but if you haven't, like Kylon, you can come back.

Too bad we can't bring back the majority of our roster who graduated too.

Yeah, that would be nice. In my opinion, it does suck for the others who worked for a Roster spot and a scholarship spot, and now it's yoinked away. I guess Kylon can come back as a red-shirt senior if he does?

When should we know if the injunction is upheld?

I have 0 clue. I assume we'll see the first game or some kind of announcement. It seems like Lumberyard always has some deep inside scoops, so perhaps he would know more.

There's no way they'd be able to keep it secret until the 1st game. They'd need to publish him to the roster either way.

Agreed. So I guess we'll wait and see if he comes back. lol I don't believe it.

one of the coaches (can't say which one) told me that Kylon Harris would be back if the bill stays. He's already reached out to our compliance department to start the process of becoming eligible. The same coach said "that would be a huge pickup for our shallow wide receiver room".

Would Harris be the only player to come back if the bill stands, or are there other players as well?
