The NCAA business model is parasitic. It's a cartel.
Good for the Supreme Court this time. Be fair for once!
They violated antitrust laws then what is the penalty for them ? How will they repay the people they wronged
What keeps a college's alumni from getting involved and start sending the players money that sign up with their college team? A college with a large and rich alumni could easily change the tide of college recruiting landscape. Take someone like Penn State that has the largest alumni of all universities. Can't they start buying a players merch, etc. and then that could be used for future recruits? ' Hey, MIke C. went to Penn State and made $50,000 their first year'
A multi-billionaire should make a create a league for top-tier college age kids, and have them play in the same cities and towns as the colleges.
Maybe also offer college tuition, so those kids can attend the colleges in those cities and towns. you know, screw around with the NCAA create tension between the schools, and the NCAA.
Why is the NCAA allowed to profit but not the players? This is slavery?
College sports is ruined
Coach makes millions Board of directors makes millions Athletes shouldn't get paid. Modern day SLAVERY
Software Engineers student can Make Millions with Silicon Valley. But Student playing Sport are breaking the law if they get paid.
Yay more ways for ad platforms to advertise
I agree pay them, but with a twist, a lot of them would never be in college, except for sports, I think they should have to pay some money for tuition, food an lodging! Not get everything free, teach them how life really works!!
Forget the students getting paid. The NCAA is a billion dollar company and with how much they rack in. Every kid in America can go to any college for free. Smh
It is for every division
I just waiting for the “they getting and education people “ why they need to get paid 😂
Many NCAA athletes are getting paid. It's called an Education, and it's expensive. I had 2 kids finish college on scholarships and both got their degrees. I can't wait for the fallout of the top athletes on full rides already, pissing off their teammates because now they're more worried about their "Brand image" than putting in the work to win a championship for their school or teammates. If you want to "pay" athletes that's fine, then have them pay for their schooling out of it also. Have them sign up for one of 2 options. Full ride scholarship OR get paid for your likeness. Not both. Welcome to the "LOOK AT ME!!!!" generation.
Get ready for the sorry college teams getting top five players
I m glad they getting paid I hope this doesn't ruin college football because the nfl let's politics and money get in the way
They should of just payed them a lump some every year and this wouldn't of happen
It SHOULD be a precipice, NOT a slope! College players should be paid FULL salaries!!!
They are getting paid, free tuition, free stipends, free tutoring, free food, free "fees"!!! I'm still paying for my student loans 12 years later!! This will ruin college sports, it will open massive corruption, it will be a nightmare for the universities to monitor it. "Come to our university, we have contacts to get you more money for……"
Well, does this mean athletes have to go to class and pass the same tests as others? Maybe tax payer sponsored State Schools should only allow residents athletic scholarships. If it really is a business relationship, why should non residents get a free ride?
Keep them lawsuits coming
No coach is worth 75 million.
Their bodies has seen wonders in injury and dreams shattered. At least compensate them for the value and worth. They deserve it!
It’s pay to play, they just killed NCAA sports.
The NCAA is just one of those things that the entire political spectrum agrees on. Outside of Big Pharma and Big Banks, name a more universally hated collective than them?
Its payday coach,,,,,,oh you are a tennis #1? Heres your 12 dollars for the quarter !!!
Does this mean the college football video game will be coming back out??!!! Sure hope so!
Well it's about damn time!!!!! Shout out to Rich Paul, The G League, Zion Williamson, The Fab 5, LaMelo Ball & Brandon Jennings for applying pressure 💪ðŸÂ¾ðŸ’¯
Let's face it, they did not go to college cause thier the smart kids, but rather based on thier sport talent
I could envision a day where the best college prospects will take a pay cut heading into the NFL & NBA.
At least they are promoted from sandwiches allowance into something meaningful and dignified treatment!!
NCAA is a sweatshop. These kids get in there for the love of the game yes and HOPEFULLY an entry into the NBA but the rules are ridiculous. They shouldn't leave broke.
So what about all the schools like UM, USC and SMU that received heavy sanctions for the very same thing that is now legal? As much as I follow Coach Saban, I find it hard to believe student athletes are going just for a championship within 3 years.
Get ready to pay higher ticket prices for college events. Guess I have already seen my last event. Could barely afford the prices before this ruling.
About FU@KING time!!!!!!!
You are SAVED by BELIEVING in JESUS CHRIST who DIED for ALL sin to SAVE ALL who BELIEVE in HIM. PROMISED ETERNAL LIFE by BELIEVING in HIM. He DID ascend to Heaven on the third day. HE IS at the right hand of God. He is preparing a place for ALL who BELIEVE. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is for all. Know the truth. Know who IS your Savior. Know that he suffered for ALL. To SAVE ALL. This life is clearly temporary and when you know why then it will confirm the truth even more! SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH. FEAR GOD. NOT MAN. PREACH THE GOSPEL. ITS WHAT JESUS DID! All Glory to God. Look at the world! WATCH!!
George Floyd got a statue for holding guns to pregnant women.
Just stop giving my tax dollars to the NCAA. I don't want to subsidize this scam!
These broadcasters are leaving out a major fact. They ARE paid. It's called tuition, meals, room and board, books and everything else related to the university is ALL paid for.
If the decision means paying market rates, how is this going to fit with title 9?
As the father of a college student who has had to take out huge loans to get through school – this rankles me! Major college athletes already get FREE TUITION AND ROOM AND BOARD! THEY GET TO GRADUATE WITH NO DEBT!
When I was in college my roommate was a music major, full ride scholarship. He was an incredible piano player. He played at all kinds of school events including fundraisers. He also played at Carnegie Hall and did pay gigs all the time. Sold of ton of cd's to make some extra cash. Student athletes are literally the only members of a campus forbidden from making money on their talents. And it is because the NCAA and schools have no interest in sharing the vast amounts of profit they pull in. The NCAA as an entity made 1.18 billion in 2019. Most of that from the massive TV deals they have. And listening to coaches talk about amateurism when they make 5 mil a year to coach a sports team is total BS. It is a business for everyone but the players.
These intellectual Supremacists need to pay back all of the majority of black student athletes that they took advantage of for generations.
Constitutional conservatives are just liberals. This case just proves my point.
Did guy just say “dominated by people of color�
The NCAA is a scam. They should have seen this coming from a mile away.
If its amateur they shouldnt be charging people to watch making huge tv deals and marketing products. college sports are not amateur they are actually semi pro farming leagues to deny this is deceitful and disingenuous!
i haven't heard a single college sport fan ever say athletes categorically should never be paid. Who they hell are those scammers talking to or about?
Take away from the greedy white democrat professors who teach communist propaganda.
