SCOTUS hasn't said anything about NIL rules.
And Stanford leaving the PAC-12 in non-revenue/Olympics sports would have ruinously bad consequences both financially and competitively.
I think median outcome here is Stanford fields a regionally competitive D1 football program but probably isn't a serious contender for national significance anymore, but otherwise retains its prominence in most other sports. NIL/collectives are not going to change the landscape in ways Stanford can't keep up on anywhere but football and probably men's basketball (and it's not like we've had a lot of success there, lately, either).
