Landscape of college athletics may be changing before our very eyes

This is a federal ruling that opens the door for every state to decide & legislate differently what it means if scholarship athletes are employees.
And, could it also mean even academic scholarships would also mean non-athletes are employees - thus under the rule of zillions of workplace laws, withholding, income taxes, limits on hours, requirements for work related injuries, discrimination, racial equity, coffee breaks, etc

I can’t imagine either the colleges nor the athletes are gonna like where this is going, so get ready for all the whining & lawsuits.

I totally agree. I want to tell the money hungry athletes,"be careful what you wish for"
 
Interesting but if the money is coming through an outside NIL deal then the college shouldn't be held responsible to make sure it is even.
There are both men and women making 7+ figure income in college.
