- r00fus 7y agoYes. This decision will most definitely cause a land-grab rush, unless the NCAA overwhelmingly punishes CA, other states will just do the same thing. It's a pretty big change - my guess is CA's stance will win, because the alternative is massive disruption of the NCAA.
- WhompingWindows 7y agoYes, if auto emissions, minimum wage, contractor laws, and many other progressive policies are any example: blue states often pile on to each others' policies to spread them widely. NCAA shouldn't count on NY, IL, WA, MA, or other big blue states not doing this.
- rconti 7y agoRight, but this CA change is (probably) an unalloyed good for CA, which gives other states even larger incentive to copy it -- whereas the incentives to copy minimum wage or auto emissions or other 'progressive' policies may be non-obvious or nonexistent.
