Yeah, there was a bill drafted. I will read it in the morning and try and put something together. 


Thank you for reading Hoosier Huddle

This isn't gonna hold up in court but I guess it's a start.

Doesn't take effect until August.  Won't have any implications on the bball portal.  Hopefully spurs Congress to pass a real bill.

@dbmhoosier I don’t see why this would spur congress.

This will get torched in the courts like you said.

IMO the only way real change comes is through collective bargaining, which I don’t think schools want to do (would be costly).

On the bright side, in the current system we are the CFB National Champs.

Keep the government out of sports.  They mess up everything else (I'd absolutely be saying this no matter who is in charge).

One thing that's annoying is all this shit is directed at players.

What about the coaches?  P4 CFB staff are collectively around $12-30M per year depending on the program, with insane buyouts for the head coaches that can add $10M to $50M+ in costs (Brian Kelly, Jimbo, etc.).

These are huge expenses that are right there with roster costs and more on a per person basis.  Why isn't this a threat to college sports and complained about as unsustainable?

And of course coaches move jobs, including before seasons end now... why not limits on this?

Give me a break.  Any attempt without negotiation to limit the players should also include limits on the coaches.

At the end the day, collectively bargain with the players or shut up and deal with the current system.
