Did Sankey not get the word that Jay and Kraft are on the case, with Sandy available for consultation? They’ve got this.

Sanky doing his best, but NIL is the way of the future. And for schools without deep pocket alumni/fans, they're gonna struggle and it's going to get worse IMO.

Neither can I, but I’m also not passing ridiculous pieces of Legislation making people’s lives miserable. The better analogy would be “Congress could Fu@k up a wet dream”.

Dang it to Pete, we don't need Congress involved in it. They can turn a wet dream with Erin Andrews into a nightmare three-way with Holly Rowe and Wendi Nix!!

States are writing laws to benefit their own universities. Who thinks senators from those states are going to level the playing field? I got beach front property in Kansas for you!

Congress will not do Jack on this .
Pa won’t even help us, hell they won’t even fund their flag staff land grant university!

I am not sure what anyone would expect Congress to do with this. The rationale is that the NCAA will not act to enforce the rules they have, and states have passed equally stupid legislation to counter NCAA authority.
This type of legislation would either be very detailed - resembling NCAA regulations, or be so general you would now need an administrative agency to write the regs under administrative law. That then just sounds and looks like what the NCAA is supposed to be. At least Sankey called it for what it is = "pay for play". almost none of this is NIL or ever was. The LSU gymnast, or Bryce on Dr Pepper are real NIL.

The only thing that congress could do is give the NCAA anti-trust authority over all collegiate sports, and since the NCAA organization is voluntary, that would address a large number of sports. Then the NCAA would have anti-trust immunity and since it is a voluntary org and the universities are then in a contract, the NCAA is safe pursuit violators. Not a big NCAA fan, but if you want regulation you need a regulatory body.
