Dartmouth College has declined to engage in collective bargaining with the newly-formed men's basketball player union, signaling a potential legal battle over the players' employment status. The school's stance could lead to a federal court dispute amid the broader athlete unionization movement, with Dartmouth distinguishing athletes from campus workers in the local union contract.
Once the Dartmouth men’s basketball team officially voted to unionize, the proverbial floodgates have been expected to open around the student-athlete employment movement. Could Stanford athletes follow Dartmouth on the path to getting paid to compete? https://t.co/QDO4jPkYcn

The (historic) unionization of college athletes isn’t what the NCAA fears most. They fear the antitrust lawsuits brought by one of the most powerful people in sports: Jeffrey Kessler. And the billions (!) in TV money he says they owe the players. 💸➡️ https://t.co/EIAkLDSdfY https://t.co/qeAc365O2d
