    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Yeah, the vast majority of existing students being paid don't have insurance and other benefits and obviously they don't belong to a union. University expenses will significantly increase with unionization due to paying direct wages, benefits, workers comp and payroll taxes, alongside high...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Regarding his thoughts on the bill being unconstitutional and the SEC/B10 being targeted, the two entities being potentially harmed and targeted are ESPN and Fox. The SEC and B10 both can double their media revenues and maintain revenue advantages if they played ball. And "handing enforcement...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Last I checked, the CSC winning an arbitration case vs NU FB players who tried to get phony NIL deals approved has yet to be overturned. And it is my understanding that each school is required to report their RevShare distributions to the CSC or NCAA. And the reason why there is a perceived...

    You have previously (and childishly) made several similar posts like this. Grow up and if you have an issue with how I described what exactly happened or how I interpreted the post I was responding to, then post that instead.

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    As previously posted, labor issues have been essentially separated from the bill by leaving open the possibility of athlete unionization. So rational House Republicans and Dems should be fine with labor language in the bill. The unionization issue will, by itself, take years to sort out and as...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Let me know when House is completely nullified and maybe then you'll have a point. Jeffrey Kessler represented the interests of former, current and future athletes during the House Settlement proceedings so your claim that current and future players didn't get a say in how large that cap is is...

    Williams & Blum: SEC/Big Ten joint statement, Wesley Johnson, and more

    @brentblum Regarding your pod dialogue on the SEC and B10 opposition to Cruz-Cantwell and their resistance to full FBS media rights pooling, let me use the following example: Let's say the current average per school payout for ACC/B12 schools is $50M/year and the average payout for B10/SEC...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    A RevShare cap has been already legally imposed with the House Settlement. And legal NIL is uncapped. Also, Cruz-Cantwell includes language that leaves open the possibility of athletes eventually unionizing with a CBA. And of course, most every other pro league with athlete CBAs have athlete...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Their joint statement on Tuesday included items of concern in Cruz-Cantwell they previously supported in SCORE (e.g. Fed preemption of state laws) which made their statement BS. And of course, no mention in their statement of their obvious opposition to pooling, anti-expansion or anti-Super...

    Sparty thinks all billionaires are amoral. Any post he makes regarding them should be dumbed or better yet, ignored.

    So WTF are you doing with an ISU avatar?

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    The "labor politics" is a secondary issue given the language to explore unionization at a later date. It has been essentially punted to be dealt with later and rightly so to increases the odds of the bill passing this year or next. And "elites" being threatened by this bill is comical. They...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    They supported SCORE which included preempting state laws and that element of SCORE is included in Cruz-Cantwell. The selfish pricks are now changing their tune on that and other aspects that were also included in SCORE because SCORE didn't include pooling, anti-expansion and anti-Super League...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    LOL, this is one warped hot take on your end. Regarding Vannini's post, of course he is absolutely right and thank goodness for ISU's sake that Campbell engaged Cantwell to legislate some semblance of financial protection for ISU and other B12/ACC schools who obviously don't want to be...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    You're definitely way off the mark regarding his ability to politic. He is almost solely responsible for engaging Dem Maria Cantwell to co-sponsor a bipartisan bill that has a chance to pass either this year or next. And Fed legislation was absolutely required for an anti-trust exemption...
