      <image:caption>Scholarship: None Transfer: No general rules; set by each college. Frequent transfers.

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 1949</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: In 1948, the NCAA issued its “Sanity Code,” which eliminated athletic scholarships. The “Code” was so unpopular with colleges that it was repealed in 1951. Transfer: No general rules; set by each college. NIL: None Redshirt: Yes.* In the 1937 season, Nebraska guard/linebacker Warren Alfson wore a red jersey while practicing but not playing for the Cornhuskers, thus starting the term “redshirting.” Paid by College: No, but players are frequently paid under the table. Eligibility: Freshmen ineligible to play.* There are a few general rules set by the NCAA; most are set by colleges. Rules Enforcement: Very weak NCAA enforcement; most rules set by colleges.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 1966</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Grant-in-aid, four-year scholarship.* Scholarships could not be revoked for injury, poor play, or if a player quit the team. No cap on the number of scholarships a college could offer. Transfer: Need permission from the current college to transfer to another. The “year-in-residence” requirement meant athletes had to sit out for one year after transferring. NIL: None. Redshirt: Yes. Redshirting became common in the early 1960s, and the rules surrounding it didn’t change much until 2019. Paid by College: No. Eligibility: The “five-year rule.”* Required high school athletes to have a 1.6 GPA to be eligible.* Rules Enforcement: Strong enforcement from the NCAA.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 1975</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Grant-in-aid, one-year renewable.* The big change is that scholarships changed from four years to one-year renewables, which could be revoked due to injury, poor play, insubordination, or quitting the team. Number of scholarships capped at 105.* Transfer:  The “year-in-residence” and permission requirements are in effect. The “Downward exception” means that transfers are immediately eligible to play if they move down divisions.* NIL: None. Redshirt: Yes. Paid by College: No. Eligibility: Freshmen eligible to play.* Revoked 1.6 GPA rule; athletes had to graduate high school.* Rules Enforcement: Strong enforcement from the NCAA.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 1987</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Grant-in-aid, one-year renewable. Number of scholarships capped at 95.* Transfer: The “year-in-residence,” permission, and “downward exception” in effect. NIL: None. Redshirt: Yes. Paid by College: No. Eligibility: NCAA drug testing.* Incoming freshmen needed a minimum 2.0 GPA and a minimum score of 700 SAT or 15 ACT.* Rules Enforcement: Strong enforcement by the NCAA. However, the NCAA v. Board of Regents (1984) decision ruled that the NCAA could not act as a monopoly over television contracts, making college football financially independent of the NCAA.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Scholarship: Grant-in-aid, one-year renewable. Number of scholarships capped at 85.* Transfer: The “year-in-residence,” permission, and “downward exception” are in effect. NIL: None. Redshirt: Yes. Paid by College: No. Eligibility: Incoming freshmen needed 13 core academic classes (up from 11), and introduced a sliding scale in which a higher GPA could offset a lower test score, and vice versa.* Rules Enforcement: Strong enforcement by the NCAA.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 2016</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Full Cost of Attendance Scholarship.* Scholarship cannot be revoked for athletic reasons.* Athletes could work during the off-season, but their income was capped at $1,200 to $2,500 per semester.* Number of scholarships capped at 85.* Transfer: The “year-in-residence,” permission, and “downward exception” are in effect. A 2006 rule change allows graduate transfers to play without sitting out a year.* NIL: None. However, the O’Bannon v. NCAA (2015) decision suggests change is coming. Redshirt: Yes. Paid by College: No. Eligibility: The NCAA eliminated minimum standardized test scores for eligibility but increased the number of core courses from 13 to 16.* Created the Academic Progress Rate and punished teams that fell below a certain standard.* Implemented the 40-60-80 rule that said athletes had to have taken 40 percent of the units needed to graduate by the start of their third year, 60 percent by the fourth year, and 80 percent by their fifth.* Rules Enforcement: Moderate. The NCAA still enforces rules, but is beginning to lose in Court on antitrust grounds.* In 2014, the Power Five conferences became known as the “autonomy conferences” and were granted greater decision-making power to create their own rules related to scholarships and athlete benefits.* The College Football Playoff (CFP) was created in 2014 by the Power Five Conferences plus Notre Dame. The CFP is separate from the NCAA and controls most of the money and bowl games.*</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 2019</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Full Cost of Attendance Scholarship. Scholarship cannot be revoked for athletic reasons. Number of scholarships capped at 85. Transfer: Introduction of The Portal in 2018, allowing athletes to announce their intention to transfer without receiving their college’s permission.* The “year-in-residence” and “downward exception” are still in effect. NIL: No. However, California’s “Fair Pay to Play Act,” which allows its athletes to make NIL money, was passed in 2019 and was to take effect in 2023. Redshirt: Yes. Two big changes. 1. A player’s redshirt year isn’t lost unless they play four games or more.* Medical redshirt rules now require the injury to have occurred in the first half of the season, with 70 percent of the season remaining.* Paid by College: No Eligibility: No major changes. Rules Enforcement: Moderate enforcement, but the NCAA is being weakened by Court rulings and state law.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 2020</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Full Cost of Attendance Scholarship. Transfer: No major changes to the Portal, with the “year-in-residence” and “downward exception” still in effect. NIL: No. But additional states passed legislation to legalize NIL, scheduled to take effect within two or three years. Redshirt: Yes. Paid by College: No. Eligibility: Because of COVID, the 2020-21 is not counted toward the five-year eligibility rule. Rules Enforcement: Moderate-to-weak. The NCAA is rapidly trying to keep up with Court decisions and state laws, all the while dealing with the disruption caused by COVID.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 2021</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Full Cost of Attendance Scholarship. Transfer: The Portal and the introduction of the “one-time rule,” which says athletes are eligible to transfer and play immediately only once in their careers.* NIL: Yes.* Players are now allowed to sign endorsement deals; no limits on the dollar amount an athlete can make.* The NCAA announces an “interim” policy that mostly leaves NIL up to state law and college policy, but requires that NIL money (a) is not used to recruit high schoolers or athletes from the Portal, and (b) is not “pay-for-play,” meaning NIL contracts cannot be contingent upon performance or enrollment at a particular school.* Redshirt: Yes. Paid by College: No Academic Eligibility: No significant changes. Rules Enforcement: Moderate-to-weak. In Alston v. NCAA (2021), the Supreme Court said that the NCAA violated the Sherman Antitrust Act by fixing athletes’ wages at $0. This decision severely weakened the NCAA, leading to the transfer-and-play rule and NIL deals. However, the NCAA still attempts to regulate college athletics through its “one-time” rule and NIL prohibitions on recruiting and “pay-to-play.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 2025</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Full Cost of Attendance Scholarship. As part of the NCAA’s 2024 Core Guarantees, athletes will have expanded medical coverage, health care insurance for up to two years after graduation, degree completion funds for up to 10 years, mental health services, financial advice, and protections against scholarship cuts or reduction for performance reasons.* Transfer: After losing a series of lawsuits, the NCAA abandoned the “year-in-residence” requirement.* Athletes are now allowed unlimited transfers, provided they are within the transfer Portal windows.* NIL: Yes. Players can sign endorsement deals with no limits on how much they can earn. After losing a series of lawsuits, the NCAA now allows colleges and collectives to present NIL deals to recruits.* NIL money still cannot be “pay-to-play,” meaning it cannot be tied to playing for a particular college or include performance clauses. The distinction between NIL-as-endorsement and NIL-as-pay-to-play isn’t clear. Redshirt: Yes. No major changes. Paid by College: No. However, this is the last year before the House settlement takes effect, allowing colleges to directly pay their athletes, subject to a revenue-sharing cap. Eligibility: Several court cases challenged the NCAA’s “five-year rule.” An injunction currently prevents the NCAA from counting junior college years toward the five-year cap.* Rules Enforcement: Weak. In the past five years, athletes have repeatedly taken the NCAA to Court for antitrust violations and have won most of their cases. As a result, the NCAA has been unwilling or unable to enforce many rules regarding NIL, the Portal, and eligibility.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Evolution of the College Athlete - 2026</image:title>
      <image:caption>Scholarship: Full Cost of Attendance Scholarship, including the NCAA’s Core Guarantees. Under the House settlement (2025), scholarship limits are replaced by roster-size limits.* Transfer: Unlimited transfers. NIL: Unlimited NIL money. Athletes and colleges must report deals worth more than $600 to the College Sports Commission (CSC).* The CSC has vowed to crack down on NIL deals that are more pay-to-play than actual endorsements.* This will be challenged in Court. Redshirt: Yes. No major changes. Paid by College: Yes.* Under the House settlement, the NCAA and its schools must provide $2.8 billion to former athletes to compensate for fixing their wages at $0.* There is also $20.5 million per-school revenue-sharing cap from which colleges can directly pay current athletes. Colleges do not have to pay their athletes, but, if they do, they can decide who to pay and how much.* Eligibility: No significant changes from 2025, but pending Court cases could lead to significant changes in the NCAA’s long-standing “five-year rule.” Rules Enforcement: Weak. A new governance structure has emerged in which the College Sports Commission (CSC) handles the business side of college sports, while the NCAA handles eligibility and on-field rules. It remains to be seen just how much the NCAA and CSC can regulate college sports, given the continued antitrust litigation and the reluctance of colleges to approve and abide by rules.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Wild West (ver. 1.0), 1904.  This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College.  Age 29; chain smoker.  Transferred four times before arriving at College.  Once poked out an opponent’s eye, but wasn’t penalized because eye poking was not against the rules.  On paper, College has a strict amateurism policy that does not allow for athletic scholarships.  In practice, College never collected Jimmy’s tuition bill, and his coach gave him a few bucks each week.  Jimmy also enjoyed free steaks and beer at Joe’s Diner, and reportedly earned $10 a week from a notorious mobster.  In a game against College’s hated rival, University, Jimmy mysteriously whiffed on a tackle, resulting in a University touchdown that covered the spread.  Despite rarely going to class, Jimmy graduated College with a degree in economics.  He went on to become a U.S. Senator.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Wild West (ver. 1.1), 1949.  This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College.  Age 25, World War II veteran, married with two kids.  Jimmy attends College on the GI Bill, which pays his tuition and fees and provides a monthly living stipend.  College also gave Jimmy a no-show job that pays $50 a week.  The coaches and boosters also slip Jimmy a little money now and then.  Many of Jimmy’s teammates have athletic scholarships, despite the NCAA’s ban on the practice under its “Sanity Code.”</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Sheriff Years (ver. 1.0), 1975.  This is Jimmy, College’s First-Team All-American middle linebacker and an Academic All-American.  Despite his reputation as a hard hitter, Jimmy is a nice guy and a good student.  Has a one-year renewable full-ride scholarship that covers tuition, room and board, and books.  Jimmy almost didn’t make it past his freshman year; College’s Head Coach thought Jimmy was too skinny to play linebacker and wanted to yank his scholarship and give it to someone else.  Jimmy’s high metabolism means he constantly eats, which is a problem since his scholarship only covers three meals a day.  Jimmy needs a chemistry tutor and lab equipment, but his scholarship doesn’t cover either.  He doesn’t even have enough money to put gas in the car.  Slick Jim, the big money booster for College, once tried to hand Jimmy a sack of cash.  Jimmy knows the penalty for accepting booster money, so he returns it.  Jimmy’s parents travel to see his games because College is rarely on television.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Sheriff Years (ver. 1.1): 1987. This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker for College during his junior year.  Known as Jimbo.  Sports a mohawk.  Jimmy had a one-year renewable, full-ride scholarship that covered tuition, room and board, and books.  Suspended by the NCAA during his sophomore year for steroid use.  Had a fantastic junior year, and his parents watched most games on cable television.  The summer before his senior year, Jimbo was spotted driving a brand new Camaro and wearing huge diamond earrings.  A subsequent NCAA investigation found Jimbo had impermissibly accepted money and gifts from a booster and suspended him for his final season.  Jimbo left College for the pros, but not before a profanity-laced tirade against the NCAA.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Wild West (ver. 2.0): 2016. This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College, 2016.  He has a four-year, full-cost-of-attendance scholarship that covers tuition, room and board, books, and a $500 monthly stipend.  Jimmy thinks the whole deal is pretty sweet, though he cannot help wondering why College is making millions off him while he’s getting thousands in return.  He thought about transferring to another school, but didn’t want to sit out a year or move down to an FCS school.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Wild West (ver. 2.2), 2022. This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College.  As one of the highest-rated recruits of the Class of 2021, Jimmy knew he would make a lot of NIL money, but he didn’t know how much because the NCAA prevents colleges from discussing those deals with recruits or athletes in the Portal.  Turns out, College’s NIL collective gives Jimmy $1 million per year, which is less than he would have made elsewhere.  He’s thinking of entering the Portal because he is underpaid, but he needs to choose wisely because he only gets to transfer and immediately play once in his career.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Wild West (ver. 2.3), 2024. This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College. Jimmy will get a sixth year of eligibility because (a) a recent court injunction said his clock didn’t start during his two years at junior college, and (b) everyone got an extra year because of COVID. He has a full-ride, full-cost scholarship, but that really doesn’t matter since he makes $1.2 million in NIL deals. He’s considering transferring to State because its booster collective offers upwards of $2 million to top players. He was also considering turning pro, but he makes more money in college than he would on an NFL rookie contract.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Wild West (ver. 2.4), 2030. This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College.  Jimmy has been in the Portal three times.  College pays him $250,000 per year, and he earns $1.2 million in NIL deals.  Jimmy is a great collegiate middle linebacker, but doesn’t project well in the pros because he is undersized.  He would like to stay at College or transfer to another school, but his eligibility is up after this year.  Jimmy has sued the NCAA/CSC for its “five-year rule,” claiming it is an illegal restraint of trade.  The case is currently pending</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Wild, Wild West (ver. 1), 2030. This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College.  As a 16-year-old high school junior, College offered Jimmy a $12 million contract over four years.  In addition, College’s NIL, the Booster Collective, signed Jimmy to a $20 million contract, provided he made over 80 tackles per year and didn’t transfer.  As an independent contractor, Jimmy does not attend College as a student.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Wild, Wild West (ver. 2), 2030. This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College.  Jimmy is a member of the State Union of College Athletes (SUCA), which includes all of College’s athletes, as well as all of the other collegiate athletes within the state.  The SUCA engaged in collective bargaining with the state colleges.  Under the terms of that agreement, College pays Jimmy the maximum salary of $1.5 million per year.  He also signed a NIL deal worth $1 million per year, subject to performance standards.  Athletes are flocking to colleges in Jimmy’s state because its labor-friendly laws are good for the pocketbook.  As a result, the “haves” and “have-nots” of college football are sorting themselves out by state.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Courts - The Professionalization of College Athletics - The Sheriff Years (ver. 2), 2030. This is Jimmy, an All-American middle linebacker at College.  College pays Jimmy the $350,000 maximum salary, and he makes upwards of $1 million per year in NIL money.  Jimmy knows he is underpaid, but cannot sue the NCAA because college sports have a modified antitrust exemption.  Jimmy can enter the Portal once in his career.  Jimmy is an Economics and Business major, carrying a 3.2 GPA.</image:title>
