The PCSA’s core purpose is to allow the NCAA to go back to engaging in illegal cartel behavior w/o consequence. Namely to price fix & suppress the college athlete labor market. The rest of the bill is just throw-ins to appease various parties. Important to remember this.

Any business that claims it can only exist if it unilaterally price fixes its most important labor force: (a) isn’t feeling the truth; or (b) needs a new business model.

As @JayBilas correctly points out, there’s a lot of hypocrisy in college athletics right now. It’s only when athletes begin to get paid that it’s necessary to have a federal law to “save college sports.”

What’s the point? Just allow five seasons of competition.
