The NCAA isn't coming to save us

In the interest of board coherence, may I make a suggestion? Stop suggesting that the NCAA do something about NIL, or the free-transfer rule, or essentially anything. It cannot. Every time it goes to court to restrict the rights of players, it loses. Its Enforcement employees are probably hiding und...

A few thoughts. In some ways, we're in uncharted territory.

That's more than a technical distinction. The most obvious point is...
