Dartmouth Basketball Players Vote to Unionize in New Challenge to NCAA’s Amateurism Model … The men’s basketball team voted 13-2 to join SEIU, setting up a fight that could play out for years over whether college athletes are employees of their universities

I think this is old news. The NLRB ruled last month that players are employees of the College and can unionize. Now that they have, I guess the colleges could go to the courts to see if the NLBR ruling should stand, but not before that go to the NLRB to try to reverse the ruling.

Article in Wall Street Journal … could only see today’s headline

I said this before, but if the ruling stands, the issue of getting out of the 4 year scholarship commitment is over and schools can "fire" any player at any time.
