Well, Knew This Was Coming

Anti-trust laws are way, way, way over the pay grade of this board.

LOL I bet everyone here can Google "Sherman Act" and figure out pretty quickly that IF the courts hold true to the letter of the law, the NCAA is royally effed. Of course, they will just use their non profit status to fullest advantage.

Oh, we used to have arm chair lawyers. Now the new thing is a google lawyer.

Lot's of unauthorized practice of law here.

Funny the attorney didn’t know that.

Never underestimate the value of a class action lawsuit. What’s ironic, attorneys will make out like bandits and the players will get chump change when it’s divided up.

Is this related to why you hate fans doing play by play comentary during games? No court talk.

I love play by play commentary from fans. What I don't like are meltdowns like petulant little spoiled children before there are any results or even the inning plays out particularly in baseball.

LOL No one said you can practice law through Google but you can definitely understand the law and its implications. Step off that pedestal, dude.
To be fair, there are lots of newly minted Google experts in geopolitics, vaccines, climate change, renewables, etc. I think you happen to check some of those boxes.
Zoom--You are 100% correct. Lawyers everywhere hopping on that particular gravy train.

Wonder what the response would be if all the G5 schools decided to suspend football for say 3 years.

How’s that different from any other college message board?

You should notify the authorities immediately.

If you think “dropping down” intentionally and giving up the even the perception of FBS status, look where FCS football is. It’s astonishing, especially the new move ups would be settling to drop down to FBS lite…the new 1-AA or FCS plus, however you want to polish that floater.

I wish the G5's would break 100% from the P4's starting immediately until the National Championship game is all inclusive. If the P4's don't want to include the G5's in the National Championship playoff system, (and one G5 that will be a subjective pick isn't including the G5's) then let the P4's ONLY PLAY other P4's on their schedules.

The G5's will survive and will probably be better off for it. Don't let the big bullies win folks. Right now, they are having it their way...play all the G5's they want during the season, but not letting them in a true playoff system. Even when the G5's win during the regular season, they are still not considered for the playoff system.

The P4's remind me of the big bullies on the playground growing up. All it took was for the small guy to standup for himself one time before everyone realized the big bully wasn't so tuff. G5's need to stand up just one time....until then, we will always be stepped on.

And don't come back with the G5's need the $$$. How many times has a schedule been altered prior to the season in which a P4 (P5) broke the scheduled game with a G5 and the G5 had to scramble to find another school to play that weekend. I haven't heard of a single G5 going under that year because of the payout they were supposed to receive didn't happen.
