Compensating college athletes: The Supreme Court's decision explained

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

It is Supreme Court opinion season and on Monday we got one that could lead to massive changes in college athletics. The case was NCAA. Vs. Alston, and the Supreme Court weighed in on the question of whether the NCAA could limit education-related benefits or compensation colleges want to offer student athletes. It's a hugely significant case for college athletics, but there's a lot to unpack. We asked Dr. Karen Weaver, an expert on college sports and Adjunct Assistant Professor and Academic Director at the University of Pennsylvania to come on the podcast to break down what the Supreme Court said and how it changes the landscape for compensating student athletes.
