[QUOTE="Second and Chalmers, post: 1392299, member: 527609"] Yup. Agree with this. I don't want to understate how seismic and disruptive this would be, especially point 3 (the lions share of donations to athletic departments would immediately cease and instead be fenced through sham endorsement deals for recruits. It will be dramatic, immediate, and kinda gross. Short term competitiveness with be immediately and dramatically shifted in favor of the coaches, programs, and fanbases able to best navigate that world. And lots of non-revenue teams, mainly sympathetic men's ones, would disappear), but college sports would survive largely intact. And it would be one of the most morally positive thing to happen in a long time. I don't want to get too political, but the wealth transfer to young, dedicated, meritorious young men from underprivileged backgrounds would be unlike anything in American history, frankly. [/QUOTE]
