Full cost is really a terrible idea and could wreck NCAA football. A system that hands players checks of varying amounts depending on the location of the university is going to create an uneven, inequitable environment and for that reason it is probably not going to pass.

Any payment system has to be standard across a particular division.

Employee status will be overturned.

Well put.

So.. is JMU going to get better athletes with a stipend for their players (hopefully with the cost being covered with expanded CFP money and future TV contracts/Bowl payout etc) or without them? Even if FBS versus FCS meant nothing to recruits ().

Again - the choice is move forward or move backwards. There is no staying still.

Or to put it another way

Staying still is moving backwards.

Or.... Moving "forward" is a close to staying still as you are going to get!

Or even moving forward too slowly is still going backwards when you let everyone else pass you.

Did that cover every aspect - doubt it.
