Either the NCAA is going to change their rules or the colleges will leave the NCAA. The later is the most likely, all the big power schools are tired of the NCAA and their raft of impossible to follow rules that get enforced 5 years later. There’s a reason the super conferences are forming, to put enough colleges together under few enough umbrellas to form their own organizing body.

The colleges tried that in the 50’s and the “NCAA” said go agead but you won’t make any money because we have the TV contracts locked up.

There’s a great documentary available on netflix that goes into how this “organization” came about and how they keep the schols in line while they make billions off of football and basketball.
