How will this actually be tracked and enforced?
they have a whole department of education, and they already have investigative apparatus for title 9 stuff. this isnt that different, and in fact title 9 is tied up in all this stuff too.

All of these schools are massively reliant on federal money, it wouldn't be that hard to make proactively policing your own athletic department and student athletes for pay for play a prerequisite for your school to be eligible for federal grant money

Executive orders are very enforceable
Can you show me where in the Constitution it says the President can unilaterally dictate who is allowed to pay you for your labor and how?

Reality. It can’t be saved. When you have college football players making $2M per year, and telling the school paying them $2M per year “frick off”, well, it’s over.

It’s gonna take people a while to come to grips with this.

its not your labor, its your opportunity to play. not sure why people dont get that college athletics is not a free market, or its not supposed to be.

Wait, what??? Who says? What was college athletics supposed to be? You mean amateur athletics? That's not college athletics. I'm still not sure who determined "what college athletics are supposed to be" and where that's written.

Are you sure you don't mean what you want college athletics to be? Athletes risking their health and future livelihoods to entertain you for free while absolutely everyone else on the field or involved in any way is making bank?
