"I don’t think Taggart did anything to intentionally hurt any of his players." Yes and No. Did he say "work them till they hurt", no. Did he and his trainer show wanton disregard for the players' health, YES = intent. -

California (the State) Screwing with the System Again
Steven A replied to Steven A's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I'm going to apologize in advance for the length to follow: Jon Wilner peels back some of the layers of Senate Bill 1401, the “College Athlete Race and Gender Equity Act,”. Gotta love the names that are given to these Bills to foster a narrative that has nothing to do with the actual application. Football and men’s basketball players, the only athletes on “profitable teams/revenues exceed scholarship costs” could receive huge sums. If it becomes law, the California schools would be at significant financial disadvantages plus, create massive Title IX complications and threaten the viability of Olympic sports. Do we need Larry Scott to talk to the legislature? This bill limits access to the cash to the athletes in the sports that generate the “profit”. It seems backers of the bill includes a union and the National College Players Association (NCPA). You may remember the NCPA, they of the doomed-at-the-start #WeAreUnited movement in the Pac-12 wherein they sought a 50/50 revenue split between the ATHLETE-students and the schools. SB-1401 states, “Excessive athletic program expenditures on salaries, administration, and facilities are not necessary to field intercollegiate athletics and should be partially redirected to address racial and gender-based inequities endured by college athletes.” Cover your ears while the rest of the Power 5 laughs their a’s off. And how is paying only football and basketball players addressing “racial and gender-based inequities” when women will not benefit? The author of the bill obviously showed a lack of understanding that football and men’s basketball generate the revenue that is vital for the rest of the athletic departments sports that all lose money. For instance, if a college had football revenue of $40M, half of that would have to be set aside for the players, minus the amount spent on scholarships. If the scholarship money was $4M, then $16M would go into the players’ “pool”, instead of supporting the other sports. That’s $185K for each of the 85 scholarship players, available at $25K per year and the balance upon earning a degree within 6 years. Walk-ons aren’t addressed per se. And who would want a walk-on if they are going to take money out of your pocket? The upside, out-of-state transfers might drop as the players would be leaving that money behind if they transferred out of CA. Or, would they could just leverage what they leave behind in their NIL deals at the new school. And of course, at least until the lawyers got involved, payment to the players shall not establish an employment relationship. Why not? Because the bill says so. How does this jive with Title IX one may ask. Good question, because the Judiciary Committee declared that women’s sports would be unaffected...“The one thing this bill would not do is hurt Title IX,” However, Committee analysis of the bill states: “The formula proposed by this bill will almost certainly benefit male student athletes more than it will female athletes. These disparate impacts mean that the bill might force California institutions of higher learning to violate their Title IX obligations not to discriminate on the basis of sex in any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” Huh??? Stay tuned to see if the legislature has an answer prior to being taken to the Supreme Court on this issue. -
