Both U Va and VT have them.

Fairly certain a fair number of other ACC schools have them. You might want to do more research.

Executive summary of pay 4 play proposal 2 be voted on in less than 2 wks🔗
Stech • 01/03/24 06:33 PM ET
That proposal is dead on arrival. It completely ignores
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/04/24 12:28 PM ET
Is it possible for the "Football Schools" to have their own league...
Old Line Hokie • 01/04/24 05:59 PM ET
Anything's possible, but a have vs have not conference would die quickly**
Vienna_Hokie • 01/04/24 07:06 PM ET
The money gap is already there.
Old Line Hokie • 01/04/24 07:35 PM ET
Not within the conferences it isn't, that's where the issues will start**
Vienna_Hokie • 01/04/24 07:44 PM ET
Title IX is there as long as schools get federal $; NCAA or not
daveinop • 01/04/24 03:54 PM ET
Paying equal salary to all is not the issue. The salary is manageable in
33laszlo99 • 01/04/24 04:21 PM ET
OK, so how is NIL currently working?
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/04/24 04:20 PM ET
It's working now because the first lawsuit hasn't been settled
Vienna_Hokie • 01/04/24 05:17 PM ET
Interesting. Thanks for the info!**
VT ChemE 1986 • 01/04/24 06:09 PM ET
That's opinion, not info, but seems logical based on history**
Vienna_Hokie • 01/04/24 07:07 PM ET
If that happens, then what will be the impact on the other sports those
VTHokie2000 • 01/04/24 12:52 PM ET
D3 model**
CrystalCoveHokie • 01/04/24 03:17 PM ET
I could see that happening and it may even be how things start out. How
VTHokie2000 • 01/04/24 03:53 PM ET
The title IX line is the monkey in the wrench so to speak
Vienna_Hokie • 01/04/24 11:48 AM ET
why does everyone keep assuming that every athlete gets paid?
HokieAl • 01/04/24 12:46 PM ET
Whether it's all or half, every male paid costs double
Vienna_Hokie • 01/04/24 02:50 PM ET
The equal number of scholarships is not the objective in Title IX.
33laszlo99 • 01/04/24 02:09 PM ET
Correct, a lawsuit was filed by OR women re NIL
Vienna_Hokie • 01/04/24 02:46 PM ET
They absolutely must keep the NIL operations outside of the schools.**

Legally is it possible for a school to pay some athletes on a team and not

VT ChemE 1986 • 01/04/24 12:31 PM ET
Sell the football/basketball programs to private investors…
CrystalCoveHokie • 01/04/24 12:00 PM ET
Tax exemptions gone and I doubt that will solve the title IX dilema
Vienna_Hokie • 01/04/24 12:04 PM ET
Well if the schools are involved in NIL
RTFC • 01/04/24 10:27 AM ET
would allow schools to put names on merch and the player to
daveinop • 01/04/24 12:28 PM ET
One thing for certain - this won’t do favors for rising tuition costs
I85Hokie • 01/04/24 08:25 AM ET
If that is the case, college affiliated sports should go away completely **
CrystalCoveHokie • 01/04/24 11:55 AM ET
a discussion long overdue; will be interesting to see where they land**
daveinop • 01/04/24 07:42 AM ET
I hate to say it, but now that direct compensation is being discussed...
BUGGZY • 01/03/24 10:09 PM ET
Aren't they doing that now via NIL
VTCALS72 • 01/04/24 07:17 AM ET
Can't see NIL going away, pay for play will be in addition.
wwhokie1 • 01/04/24 10:16 AM ET
It won't go away
RTFC • 01/04/24 02:11 PM ET
They have NIL rights by statute. The schools can not negotiate that.**
33laszlo99 • 01/04/24 02:16 PM ET
They are allowed to earn by NIL by statute, yes.
RTFC • 01/04/24 02:25 PM ET
Yeah, I agree with that. But high earners will want to keep the door open
33laszlo99 • 01/04/24 02:57 PM ET
That is the point, it is a source of cash for the football player that is

33laszlo99 • 01/03/24 11:55 PM ET
If every student athlete earns $30,000/school year...
Old Line Hokie • 01/03/24 07:52 PM ET
How much of uva's endowment could be used? I'm sure their endowment
IB4TECH • 01/04/24 01:18 PM ET
Here is what it will cost for all athletes @ $30k each.**
33laszlo99 • 01/04/24 09:26 AM ET
great info!**
daveinop • 01/04/24 09:52 AM ET
I read it as $30k/per year minimum all in
HokieAl • 01/04/24 08:43 AM ET
The HUGE fear of other sports, is that many men’s will be cut due 2 Title 9
Stech • 01/03/24 11:10 PM ET
UVA;s endowment cannot be used for athletics. Donors would have to come up
manassashoo • 01/03/24 09:14 PM ET
Is UVA's endowment used for scholarships?
Old Line Hokie • 01/04/24 12:36 AM ET
No, UVA's scholarship student draw nothing from the endowment.
KaHOOnah • 01/10/24 11:44 AM ET
It would be a disservice to many high schoolers if that massive elimination
IB4TECH • 01/04/24 01:21 PM ET
Not sure how many sports at UVA are limited scholarship wise, but the NCAA
manassashoo • 01/04/24 10:17 AM ET
Please speak to your athletes being on Academic Scholarships please, it is
Stech • 01/05/24 10:14 AM ET
Academic or Merit Scholarships are very competitive to receive at UVA.
manassashoo • 01/05/24 02:17 PM ET
Thank you, Stanford & of course the Ivies scholarship players that are not
Stech • 01/05/24 10:22 PM ET
Almost every endowment is set up the same way. However, the
Big12 guy • 01/03/24 10:18 PM ET
What do you mean.......
2hhoop3 • 01/03/24 10:36 PM ET
I'm saying that the size of a schools endowment shows the capacity
Big12 guy • 01/03/24 11:21 PM ET
You said......
2hhoop3 • 01/04/24 09:58 AM ET
I misspoke when I wrote that all endowments are set up the same way,
Big12 guy • 01/04/24 10:22 AM ET
You probably need to.......
2hhoop3 • 01/04/24 10:43 AM ET
No doubt I will misspeak again, and if it's on this board, I have no
Big12 guy • 01/04/24 11:00 AM ET
A lot of schools have endowments that are dedicated solely to athletics.**
RJHokie • 01/04/24 10:27 AM ET
That is different, and is more rare than you might think in FBS. **
Big12 guy • 01/04/24 10:28 AM ET
Both U Va and VT have them. ◄
RJHokie • 01/04/24 10:35 AM ET
Maybe I should. **
Big12 guy • 01/04/24 10:57 AM ET
UNC has one too. **
RJHokie • 01/04/24 11:15 AM ET
I got as far as...
33laszlo99 • 01/03/24 07:06 PM ET
Salary means they are employees. And that’s a whole other can of worms
HokieAl • 01/03/24 08:59 PM ET
Question re. employment
Hokie Dog`s Dad • 01/04/24 01:51 PM ET
It would completely wreck it. That's why they keep pushing NIL
HokieAl • 01/04/24 03:25 PM ET
Let me try my question again
Hokie Dog`s Dad • 01/04/24 06:09 PM ET
My understanding is that the players are the reason for non-profit status
HokieAl • 01/04/24 06:17 PM ET
After that, the players should have contracts.
Truthahn • 01/06/24 10:11 AM ET
Players will be declared employees by the courts. NCAA has nothing to say
33laszlo99 • 01/03/24 09:50 PM ET
Title IX just demands equal treatment. It doesn’t mean all get paid big $
HokieAl • 01/03/24 11:24 PM ET
That's a fine theory. Good luck selling it to a players' union.
