The news that the NCAA has formed a working group to explore the issues surrounding compensation for the use of an athlete’s likeness was met with a range of responses. Some people started anxiously discussing the return of the NCAA Football video game while others began to worry that it would destroy the “level playing field” (um yeah about that one). Syracuse Orange fans don’t need to worry about anything happening for the near future.
Why? Well because this working group is stacked so that it’s really unlikely that they will make any recommendations to the current rules.
