Here is the Cliff's Notes from the OCR There is a component that says men's and women's coaches have to "receive equivalent compensation". But you can have extenuating circumstances like number of athletes. So maybe they can get away with huge salaries for football coaches under the auspice of "they have a lot more athletes to supervise". But they are definitely employees and it says they have to be paid similarly unless it can be justified. I don't know why having athletes as employees would be any different. Right now, it only says that "scholarships and financial assistance" has to be commensurate with total population. I don't think this would probably be strictly "financial assistance" but it seems very likely that paying athletes would get lumped into the same bucket.

I would think Title IX would still apply to employees because I think you are supposed to (more or less) spend the same amount. So if you're spending more on men's employees, I would think you still have to spend that amount on women. But as I say that, the salaries of coaches are significantly different right now. So I'm not sure how that all plays out.

This is my biggest question on this. If they do it as "revenue sharing" can they get away with directing most of the payments to the revenue-generating sports? If not there are going to be a whole lot of happy golfers and tennis players and a bunch of pissed-off football players.

Even a beaten down Cubs fan (or Mets fan for that matter) can't be jaded enough to consider a 2-2 split a series win!

I guess turn-about is fair play.

I guess that's how I read that description of what's going to happen. At least something very close to that. The athletes will sign contracts with the schools and be paid for their play/performance. I guess there may be some semantic difference between and employment contract and a compensation contract but that seems like it's basically the same thing.

Considering yours is timestamped later, I assume the one I posted was a typo and he fixed it when he reposted.

Penn State with a mass exodus today apparently.

Exhibit A in "If you do stupid stuff, bad things will probably happen."

Because people are still stupid enough to be on Prima, just like the were last year.
