Agree that the BR stinks and is not worth the internet bandwidth it occupies.  This writer put as close to zero effort into logic and analysis as possible.  I give him credit for matching the schools up with their respective states and for spelling each correctly, but beyond that, there is nothing.

OC said as much as the writer in one sentence.

Unionizing SMU and Miami will not be easy by any stretch of the imagination and they would not be likely primary targets.

A convenient fact simply overlooked is that the players at most private schools are intelligent enough to know that they do NOT want their scholarships taxed in any manner.  The IRS does not play as nice as many writers are pretending by claiming that only the stipend will be taxed, good luck with that!

Not a mention of Title IX, though the writer did include hoops as the next target.  Title IX will throw a monkey wrench in everything and severely impact how much money these early unionizers think they can make.  Does anyone think the ladies will not want a piece of the action if there is new money on the table?

Glad BR maintains their standards of excellence in thought provoking journalism.  (sarcasm off)
