Message: [QUOTE="javadoc, post: 28820, member: 338"] Not directly addressing the body of your post, but the topic only. One thing that concerns me is what the rules would be in a new breakaway consortium. That recent article about the NCAA guy who built the organization and persuaded the members to abide by the rules, without legal grounding, was a wake-up call. Some questions for the new "Power 64" league, divorced from NCAA rulemaking: [LIST=1] [*]Will players be paid? Any regulation of it? [*]Will scholarships be limited at each school as they are now? [*]Will there be any academic standards for "student-athletes?" [/LIST] It's great that we got our foot in the door for this possible scenario. I hope it doesn't turn into a nightmare in which the big money schools are freed from NCAA restrictions and get to concentrate power and success amongst themselves even further. [/QUOTE]
