Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 5266825, member: 12088"] I think I understand what you’re getting at, and what strikes me about it is a presupposition that some sort of regulation is necessary. As long as that’s true, then it should become a federal case, merely because it’s an interstate commerce problem. But is there really a problem with “the current Wild West system”? Or better, what exactly is wrong with it? Kids are playing sports in college. And they’re going to classes. And most of them are graduating with degrees and going on to productive lives. Sure, NIL and the Portal are undermining our pleasure in watching them play, and the sort of basketball we’d like to see more of is threatened. But this does not appear to be something our government needs to respond to, and perhaps should not pay any attention to. [/QUOTE]
