Wouldn't matter

Pro league or non NCAA, courts would see it as an attempt to circumvent an existing contract.

Another problem that would arise would be labor laws. If there is a "salary cap" in this new conference, the only way that can be done is with a comprehensive labor agreement, and the only way that you can have that is if there is a union in place. Most of the states that would have teams in this new conference ban public sector unions.

Does the ownership of rights apply if schools leave the NCAA -- VTHokie2000 05/17/2019 5:18PM

The school "sold" the rights to broadcast their sports to the ACC -- mrcaniac 05/17/2019 11:26PM

It may matter though if the athletic departments decide to break away -- VTHokie2000 05/19/2019 5:40PM

Changing ownership structure won't negate the contract -- mrcaniac 05/21/2019 3:19PM
