Employers in NYS, being an “at will” employment state like many others, can be let go without reason if they don’t have a contract or as long as it isn’t retaliatory or discriminatory. Are these players, employees or considered to have a contract? Seems to be a unique middle ground - not really employees nor contract employees, Just wondering legally if players can leave at will, legally how does that effect universities rights? Just wondering, of course I don’t have a clue. Most regular employees are working for corporations etc that have all the power too, unless in a union with a contract,
