Chris Williams and Brent Blum react to President Trump’s executive order that could change the NIL landscape. What does it mean for Iowa State? Ranking the Cyclones’ road games and more. Presented by Mechdyne.

The odds of Trumps EO being legal and standing up in court are incredibly low. He just wants to claim he saved college sports.
We also don’t even know what’s in it, do? All I’ve seen are articles saying he plans to issue an executive order, but nothing about what it would actually do

All I've seen is that it will be in regards to NIL. I can't even think of what executive authority there is over college athletics other than Title IX compliance and enforcement by the DOE.

It would presumably make the SCORE bill effective in advance of House/Senate voting and codify the House Settlement. But not sure about that.

People wanted to pay the players, but they don't want them to be considered "employees" because then it makes college football just a secondary pro league to the NFL...... That's where we are folks. College football and basketball are now minor league pro sports. This is what everyone wanted. Embrace it.

If we’re going that direction, send them a UBill, or whatever it’s called nowadays.

I worked, often over 40 hours a week to pay my tuition, room and food. They can too.

I'm not well-traveled enough to make an argument regarding road schedule site-rank, but I would've guessed more like:

[1 Dublin (if y'can afford it)]
2 Boulder
3 Cincinnati
4 Fort Worth
5 Jonesboro (mainly because it’s “unfamiliar” game site)
6 Oklahoma State (mainly because it’s “familiar” game site)

I think Colorado takes a step back and TCU takes a step up.
I think Cincy ticket sales were bad so far this year. ISU alumni assoc there said tickets were cheap and easy to come by.
