[QUOTE="cpf2001, post: 949519, member: 6459"] Courts are much more "where do we draw the line" then "let's extend the argument forever" in stuff like this, and they clearly haven't been drawing the line in the same place as the NCAA recently. I'm not confident they'd overturn a sit-if-you-transfer a rule if it was reinstated, but I wouldn't be shocked if it got challenged and the challenge made it a long way or was upheld, *especially* if it was in regard to a school which didn't guarantee that the scholarship would be around for the next year. It's a similar sort of "have it both ways" dealing that the Supreme Court has been extremely skeptical of. "You won't guarantee me a scholarship here, but you will restrict my eligibility if I leave." Is that so far from "You will make money of my performance and my likeness, but you will take away my eligibility if I take money for it."? I'd love to see it, though, because IMO the sooner the courts fully rip up the pretense of amateurism that the NCAA has pretended to have for decades, the sooner we can build a new system with newly-negotiated rules like the pro leagues. It was in the sports' media's interest to pretend that there was a truly fair, amateur playing ground for the last 50+ years; the court system has no similar profit motive to ignore how one-sided and ham-handed things have been.
