Loads of comments by Sankey today on ESPN

Unfortunately the Golden Rule applies. Those with the gold make the rules.**
Hokester • 08/03/22 01:55 PM ET
Hard to tell what is......

ESPN's pushing Sankey as a "victim" & Fox's pushing the B1G as Civil Rights
Stech • 08/02/22 07:15 PM ET
I like Sen. Murphy discussion in the article. Let big schools become feeder
cricket77 • 08/02/22 06:34 PM ET
A little naïve of him to think that's possible

Academic football will only be for D-2 and D-3....
Old Line Hokie • 08/02/22 06:59 PM ET
What is academic football?**
33laszlo99 • 08/03/22 11:18 AM ET
Ask cricket77. Just responding to his post.**
Old Line Hokie • 08/03/22 11:30 AM ET
But will there be any remaining D1 schools? Could be that D-1
VTCALS72 • 08/03/22 08:09 AM ET
Can the DI schools afford to pay players for all the sports they sponsor?**
VTHokie2000 • 08/02/22 07:18 PM ET
They certainly can if they choose to allocate the money across all sports
HokieToph • 08/03/22 12:15 PM ET
Legally the schools may not have a choice in the matter because I believe
VTHokie2000 • 08/03/22 08:55 PM ET
It does not appear possible.**
VTCALS72 • 08/03/22 09:27 AM ET
I don't know. Depends on the school's revenue...
Old Line Hokie • 08/02/22 07:49 PM ET
You could pay 100 athletes 100k for what Kirby Smart is making alone.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 11:52 AM ET
Tell us what you really think about non-rev Olympic sports! **
133743Hokie • 08/03/22 01:01 PM ET
What i REALLY think is REALITY.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 03:48 PM ET
Mentioned below. How come Fball and Bball coaches make millions more/yr?
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 08:03 AM ET
Except your reality may not be a realistic one given that all schools
VTHokie2000 • 08/03/22 09:52 PM ET
Disagree. Bball and Fball aren’t gonna be under the same umbrella as Tennis
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 12:16 AM ET
It doesn't matter what the pro leagues do because they don't receive
VTHokie2000 • 08/04/22 02:19 AM ET
I get all that, but while the lawsuits would come both ways.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 08:02 AM ET
Again a player's "worth" has nothing to do with it as long as the school
VTHokie2000 • 08/04/22 09:12 AM ET
What about coaches? They all paid equally?**
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 10:12 AM ET
The reason it is tougher to prove for coaches and most professions is they
VTHokie2000 • 08/04/22 11:39 AM ET
WTH? So, these young impressionable kids shouldn’t earn a fare wage?
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 01:05 PM ET
It isn't a one or the other situation because you keep ignoring the role
VTHokie2000 • 08/04/22 03:55 PM ET
Title IX will have a say on which sports the schools will be able to
VTHokie2000 • 08/02/22 08:26 PM ET
Does Title IX even apply? We're talking paid employees. Different ballgame
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 04:06 PM ET
Yes, I believe Title IX would still apply based on the original purpose of
VTHokie2000 • 08/03/22 08:41 PM ET
Players are employees of paid. Reason why Pry’s highest paid employee at VT**
BBBDatVT_ • 08/04/22 08:07 AM ET
Title IX is the 🐘 in the room that no one is talking about on pay for play**
Stech • 08/02/22 08:56 PM ET
Exactly which is why I think if the schools want to start paying the
VTHokie2000 • 08/02/22 09:14 PM ET
Completely agree. This is the issue that will likely end the College notion**
ColumbusHokie • 08/03/22 07:05 AM ET
Even if the athletic departments are spun off as independent entities, I do
VTHokie2000 • 08/03/22 08:50 PM ET
Change
WarHog38 • 08/02/22 05:31 PM ET
There were lawsuits by players that forced NIL and Transfer.
4x4hokies • 08/02/22 06:23 PM ET
Court
WarHog38 • 08/02/22 06:35 PM ET
Ask the very conservative Supreme Court. They LOL'ed at the old system.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 11:27 AM ET
Millions
WarHog38 • 08/03/22 11:50 AM ET
don't they only get one free transfer? Only change is that they don't
reestuart • 08/03/22 04:18 PM ET
Un-Limited
WarHog38 • 08/03/22 09:26 PM ET
If anything, outright paying them, will result in less transfers.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 03:49 PM ET
The legal change occurred because players

It can be argued that collective greed screwed college football, not courts
hokieZ71 • 08/02/22 07:13 PM ET
Dude this was a BIG corrupt business back in the 80s.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/03/22 11:41 AM ET
Court said NCAA can't sell what (name, image, likeness) it doesn't own.
daveinop • 08/02/22 07:06 PM ET
Like Swarbrick said, there will be two spheres of influence
