Message: [QUOTE="Sifaka, post: 5263749, member: 8516"] Here's where some fresh, out of the box, thinking may be useful. Instead of fighting against player-as-employee rulings by the NLRB, schools should embrace and encourage it, and promote unions of players. Why? So that the schools can negotiate contracts that include provisions for multi-year enrollments with pay-to-play. Example: Offer rising freshman a one year contract with NIL/pay-to-play compensation of $50,000, or a multi-year contact @ $75,00/year for two years, $85,000/year for three years, etc. The better programs will only offer one year contacts to “project” players or end of the bench fill ins.
