Until the mid majors collectively stand up for themselves the P5 conferences will get the lion share of the bids to the tourney. The mid majors should file a class action lawshit.
Personally I think the players should also be paid, but also receive a 1099 for their scholarship value and any other remuneration.
In reality the players are non paid entertainers.
Knowing the NCAA, the rollout for the NIL rules going into effect in 2021 is probably going to be a complete mess. I can see a lot of abuse and creative accounting going on, so much so that the next federal agency to take a crack at the NCAA/colleges/athletes/boosters will be the IRS.
