Potential restraint of trade makes this a federal issue.

NIL is not going away, it’s not going to be appreciably restricted and nobody is going to give what the old-school fans who want it to be like 1984 again any consideration at all. At all.

I fully understand that’s the reason that people are so pissed off right now, because college football has been one sport where fans … and for good reason IMO … have felt a proprietary and almost ownership interest, because of the traditions and the rabidness of their support and all the money they have spent on it for decades.

The pendulum has shifted and the players are driving the car and there may be some tweaks to bring things a little more into equilibrium but the old days are gone and never coming back. So you either keep watching or you don’t. It is what it is.

Then why are professional sports leagues able to have restricted free agency and salary caps?

Wouldn’t those things be considered potential restraint of trade?
