Eliminate all non revenue sports. Make them club sports instead….

Have a privately funded entity employ the revenue athletes, license the college name and lease the facilities. Eliminate all scholarships, no Title IX concerns, no requirement to be a student, eliminate entire athletic department…..Problem solved.

Can anybody provide clarity about Title IX impact on NIL?

When do high school athletes become paid employees too?**

I believe it depends on state law.
RJHokie • 08/26/24 08:30 PM ET
All of them have laws that those under 18 can not sign contracts. Do

Stech • 08/26/24 08:53 PM ET
I believe parents/guardians can sign contracts for them.
RJHokie • 08/26/24 08:46 PM ET
Yes, that is correct because most (all?) states have decided minors lack

I guess eventually we'll see reports where a 4 or 5 year old is paid money

That has to violate child labor laws.**

I can see a scenario where schools only have 2-3 men's sports

Now that’s what I call blowing the whole thing up and starting all over!
Stech • 08/26/24 11:25 AM ET
People have said many times that they root for the uniform, not the name…
CrystalCoveHokie • 08/26/24 11:40 AM ET
Except Title IX applies to club sports too.

Title IX application to clubs seems to me to be a big non-issue….
CrystalCoveHokie • 08/26/24 10:52 PM ET
Schools will need to think long and hard on whether it is in their best

As I said, I would think that Title IX compliance is easy with Clubs…..

If they count tuition as being paid, the non revs will be fine. **

The lawsuit from what I am hearing separates scholarships from being paid.

2hhoop3 • 08/26/24 11:15 AM ET
I'd wager the damage repayments were calculated based on NCAA distributions
HokieAl • 08/26/24 05:51 PM ET
So you’re saying the scholarship amount would b part of their compensation?
