As Myles, the issues confronting me in regards to accepting an offer from a Big East or ACC school virtually all pertain to my future, which is stratified into both short-term and long-term goals. The objectives are of course to embark on a professional sports career in which I am able to provide for my family and my progeny -- which is the long-term goal. The short-term goal is to figure out the best way of doing so, which can either involve basketball or baseball, college or getting drafted by a professional team. Since sports is the path I have elected to provide for my family, there are issues of injury and fame to consider. Ideally, the objective is to refrain from sustaining injuries and to involve myself in a program that will gain as much attention as possible to so that I can most effectively market my talents. Finally it is necessary to discern what types of coaches are involved at the sports teams I am considering, which can greatly affect an athlete's success.
My professional basketball and baseball options involve enrolling in a collegiate program or attempting to get drafted by a professional sports team. Both options have the potential to yield considerable lucrative options. Additionally, it is possible to take the former option in able to get a higher pick and more benefits in the latter option after a couple of years in college.

Previously this option was not available. Thus, the O'Bannon ruling makes attending college out of high school much more lucrative than it previously was. Myles should attend college and then the draft for baseball, which yields a longer career life than basketball, typically.
Financially, it is advantageous for Emmert to continue his appeal of the lawsuit in which a Ninth Circuit judge in New York ruled that collegiate athletes actually are able to get paid, particularly in video games in which their likenesses and images are used. Thus, Emmert should continue working with his legal team to successfully appeal the aforementioned decision. Furthermore, he should continue to do so until his case reaches the Supreme Court, if success is not met immediately.
From a public relations and marketing perspective, Emmert should continue to play up the angles that the NCAA and colleges in general are already compensating their student athletes in ways that do not involve payment. Instead, they are granting them an education which is priceless, especially since the bulk of athletes (particularly those who are popular enough to warrant the issuing of their likenesses and images on video games) are already attending schools…
Despite the mixed feelings of many on the issue, however, it seems as though Jeremy Bloom had his rights restricted very strongly by the NCAA, since there was no correlation between the football that he was playing at the University of Colorado and the skiing-related endorsements that he was receiving payment for. Bloom may have given up these rights when he enrolled in the University, but it is suspected that
Onyshko v. NCAA Case briefing: Onyshko v. NCAA pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. Recently, the heightened publicity in regards to the dangers of college sports, specifically football, has raised the question of the degree to which colleges and the NCAA have a responsibility both to warn and protect players on teams from participating institutions. The case of Onyshko v. NCAA currently pending in the
" (Weatherby & Edmonds, nd) Weatherby & Edmonds (nd) One argument consistently made by individuals that are against paying student-athletes is that the student-athlete receives a free education so in effect they are receiving something for their services. But examining graduation rats of some universities does not support this statement at all. The following is a list with an accompanying chart showing the graduation rates from several universities across the
Since the 1920s, Villanova has been a top contender in the NCAA, rival of other Philadelphia area schools. Yet it was not until 2016 that Villanova really made history. Kris Jenkins’s historic clock-beater shot made this Final Four appearance the most memorable in all of Villanova’s history. Villanova has in many ways always been a threat, whether as a thorn in the side of top seeds or as a top seed

The subjects of the study are students, but there was no attempt to randomize the sampling. Instead, the authors chose the schools and the athletic programs within the schools. The students self-selected for participation, which also may have affected the participation rates. Because the schools and athletic programs were involved, the subjects may have been wary of the promise of confidentiality, causing the results to have some bias. Singer,
