they're going BK.

What forms after that for all the sports is the biggest question, obviously.

Why would they dissolve the NCAA? Just re-write the bylaws.

They'll still want some entity to tattle to on the other schools and act as a focal point for blame when they get it wrong.
I'm not saying that they wouldn't have oversight

I just don't think it would be the NCAA. I think that they'll need a new entity that hasn't constantly lost in court for decades. Trying to polish the turd, so to speak.

Perhaps they can call the new one, "the cartel formerly known as the NCAA."

I’d be surprised if losing the top 50 or so would end it. Somebody still needs to regulate the other 1,050 and put together postseason tournaments.

NAIA still exists with a fraction of the revenue

Perhaps the statement needs amendment:

"The N.C.A.A. as media rights cartel and piggy bank will soon disappear--it will be replaced for at least one money-generating sport. Whether it persists in its core role of organizing intercollegiate athletic competition for most sports remains to be seen."
