It may not be as significant as you think because it is likely the law will -- VTHokie2000 Jul 30, 2026 at 12:24 PM ET

The wording is very specific. They can still raid other conferences -- HokieAl Jul 29, 2026 at 01:56 PM ET

I won't be so sure. We haven't seen the final language but it was reported -- RandomAsianGuy Jul 30, 2026 at 12:12 PM ET
