Quote:State attorneys general in Ohio, West Virginia, Colorado, Illinois, Tennessee, New York and North Carolina filed the lawsuit.
The coalition referred to the NCAA’s implemented transfer rules as “a no-poach agreement between horizontal competitor member schools that serves to allocate the market for the labor of NCAA Division I college athletes.”

Reminds me of the no-poaching agreement between Apple, Google, Intel and Adobe.

most colleges limit how many units you can transfer in with so (Stanford at least used to take up to 90 units of the 180 needed to graduate) if someone transfers after their academic junior or senior year they will likely have a difficult time graduating from their new university before their eligibility expires....but that's probably a minor concern for most players who end up transferring two or three times....

What's next? A lawsuit against Stanford and the Ivies alleging collusion to restrain labor opportunities because they *checks notes* have admissions standards and therefore don't let just anyone in?
At the point at which we think antitrust laws should apply to students attending universities, haven't we essentially conceded we've left the realm of "
student-athletes" and we're all just debating how to reform then as minor league/AAA/G league teams?
It's really about time to give up the ghost here.

A lawsuit against the Little League because the residency requirements for the composition of a team are in effect “no-poach” agreements?

They only have to sit a year if they transfer more than nice, right?
