The N.C.A.A. Board of Governors, weary from increased attacks in legislatures and courthouses and from the public, announced Wednesday that it would support rule changes allowing athletes to earn money from the use of their names, images and likenesses. But the deals would have to come from third parties so that athletes could not be considered university employees.

Now this is a fine kettle of fish. I can only guess after the latest court setback along with the court mentioning their organization should tread lightly as it most probably is in violation of the law existing finally forced their hand. This will forever change college sports and maybe even High School. On the surface I can see the larger schools benefiting greatly by this change. Who knows in time we could see a revial of even the Ivey league school teams? What do you think?

It's not going to change a thing, and you know why? All this does is take all that under the table money the players were getting, and legalizing it. Only a very naive person would think the players are not getting paid already. So now, they can get paid in the open. That's all.
