One positive from this ruling is the collective outcry against it. It would seem to me that leaders in college athletics CAN agree on a fundamental rule the NCAA needs the power to enforce - just as other major entities have done throughout the history of sports.
If there's one thing that could unify a divided Congress to pass a law that gives the NCAA more authority to govern itself, it might be a court prohibiting the NCAA from banning athletes who bet on their own games.

Regarding all this super league talk … Greg Sankey said last week “I love our 16 … I’d love for everybody to stay where they are because I think our 16 are special. I said before, we are a super league.” @GregSankey

Saban: I don't think this is bipartisan, I think it should be nonpartisan. It's that important in terms of college athletics, in terms of the future for young people.

Statement from Senate Commerce Committee majority spokesperson in response to the joint statement from the SEC and Big Ten on the Protect College Sports Act:
ESPN has turned back the clock and produced a college football preview magazine. Couldn’t be happier. It’s nostalgic. Love poring through them before the season. @lindyssportsmag, too @AGWildcatReport
The good news: everyone wants to “fix” college athletics. The bad news: they’re probably gonna have to do it themselves. Which is … what they are paid handsomely to do. Run college sports.
Here's the bill, which is a long way from ever becoming law. The step of introduction is notable -- and the industry clearly needs help -- but the chances are still low something actually happens. cantwell.senate.gov/imo/medi…
