    Do you HONESTLY not understand how the NCAA was violating anti-trust laws??

    The players weren't playing for the NCAA league office. They were playing for the schools. There were rules limiting what each individual school could offer. Had it not been for those rules, which were not collectively bargained, the players would have gotten more. THAT IS ILLEGAL!!!!! That's why the NCAA is totally up shit creek. ALL the changes that have happened in the last two to three years have happened because of the courts. It's not that the NCAA just decided on their own to do it. It's that the courts, including the SCOTUS said that the NCAA was breaking the law and basically forced them to stop.

    As far as the current House Case is concerned, the NCAA's own lawyers have now told them "You were in violation of anti-trust laws. We cannot win this case for you." So, we will likely see even more changes by the end of this summer because of it.
