As much as I'm enjoying watching the cockroaches scurry (bye Ricky), there could be a backlash none of us are thinking about.
I believe this is going to reinvigorate the discussion of paying college athletes their market value. In essence, dropping the charade of amateurism in college athletics. The argument will be athletes are obviously shopping their talents to the highest bidder; why should this be done in the shadows? Conversely, if we're going to acknowledge these are at least semi-pro athletes, why should they be prohibited from playing in the NBA right away? If this idea gains traction, you'll see bidding wars for top talent & even lesser talent. UD doesn't have the pockets for that.
