Good point by the NCAA. I didn't see him having much of a case to begin with, but I quit predicting rulings a long time ago.
Me, too. And not just out of schadenfreude for Ziegler. We gotta let the young kids feed from the trough, too. I get it, for most NCAA "student athletes" their college playing careers will be the pinnacle of their yearly earnings in their life. Hard to blame ZZ for trying (though we will).
Exactly. It’s not the NCAA’s job to get everyone into professional leagues. Collegiate sports are their own end, and the NCAA should have authority to set their own criteria for eligibility. And as you point out, we just wouldn’t want athletes taking up scholarships for 8-10 years.
