I agree. It's partially filling an obvious policy vacuum. A former USFL owner who can't resist. Thanks.

Constitutionally speaking, there's really no foundation for the validity of the order. If the order purports to provide guidance to the departments of the executive branch about how to execute the application of federal law, the immediate response is there is no law. Conversely, if the order intends to establish a "legal framework" for departments of the executive branch to enforce legal restrictions established by the order itself, then it clearly violates separation of powers and is simply unconstitutional. Either way it has no chance of affecting the actual outcome of this saga. It's pure theatre.

IMO it's a "valid" EO, but the question arises regarding what is the impact of an EO in this policy process. It may just be another avenue to Judicial Review of one or (likely) more issues. Again, just IMO, but when the Courts ruled in O'Bannon on the NIL issue, the legal and policy landscapes became what was widely described as "the Wild West," meaning little to no regulations or limits around NIL. I think Texas and Texas one Fund flourished in the "Wild West" environment. Many universities and interested parties called for "Guardrails," meaning rules and regulations impacting how teams could and could not compensate players. What has developed is a classic case of self-interested parties trying to get rules and regulations ("Guardrails") regarding pay for players that would advantage their teams and disadvantage their rivals. This is particularly true for smaller, less wealthy universities trying to craft a "level playing field." Finally, IMO , it seems to me that attempts to develop "Guardrails" will only ensure years of litigation. I know it's not going to happen, but I would like to see the "Wild West" prevail. What's likely needed is a new structure to replace the NCAA with a Commissioner of CFB with strong power to administer college football under a broad set of rules. In some ways, the EO signed by the President is showing how rulings could be made by a future strong CFB Commissioner. Universities are finding out they have to be careful about what they wish for. Meanwhile, some programs are being aggressive in recruiting and paying athletes trying to gain advantages while "Guardrails" are developed and reviewed by the Courts. Hook 'Em!

Same language Cody Campbell has been using for months. Campbell is a huge donor (and possible shadow mega-donor) to the administration. Meet Cody Campbell, the billionaire Texas Tech booster with plan to save college sports

Yeah, the crazy executive order train picked up major steam sixteen years ago. It's only accelerated since.

It’s sad that some people actually believe this guy. It will go back to court as it always does. If he doesn’t like the rule then it’s the dumbest thing in the history of mankind.

Just like softball this season, they can have the regular season, I'll take the championship.

You guys are overreacting a little. Not the first time Bobby said a cuss word. I would say the keys are sparingly and not said in such a way as to be gratuitous or lascivious.
-
No lies detected
-
This was about how Bobby swore on this but on OTF if someone swears or does anything like that he deletes it. So basically being a hypocrite. That’s all yall
-
Again, even federal legislation that attempts to curtail Fifth Amendment rights of players absent their consent is unlikely to withstand judicial scrutiny given that the Supreme Court has already adamantly warned college athletics not to come back asking for an anti-trust exemption. There's no grounds for an exemption if the players aren't employees.
-
On its face, the order doesn't really bind anything because it doesn't do what executive orders have the power to do, which is clarify the application of federal legislation. The federal judiciary will view this as nothing but chatter. This has less legal standing than the House Settlement, which we've already seen is shaky.
-
Where did Bobby lie? It's not about having an ego, it's just a fact. Our D last year kept us in games that years prior would've had us getting spanked with poor offensive performance. Tennessee was not that good last year. Our D would've ripped their Fr QB to shreds.
