there will be a whole slew of schools that will drop out of the "business of athletics" if this ruling goes against their hopes. The scope of the case is deceptive since it will most certainly lead to bolder & bolder demands, and also one has to remember that Title IX will have to be applied applied (people often forget about this and the potential cost which will force many schools to drop sports).
I don't foresee our school, Notre Dame, staying in the number of sports that it presently does in Men and Women's athletics if payment models ensue, and we are one of the rich programs - though not tax payer funded.
Change is coming. I guess we will seee how big that change is going to be.
