I for one hope they don't pay the players. I am sick of the comparisons to slavery. It's a disservice to actual slaves and other atrocities.  I do not believe the O-lines at USC, Alabama, ND..etc are going to bed hungry. Have you been to some of these large campuses and looked around. I don't think none of the kids are there against there will. No way to fairly pay a college athlete. Should a football player make more than a lacrosse player? Or a gymnast? What is a college education worth. Most students are 100k+ in debt when graduating.

Full NLRB will likely overrule the single member and void any vote taken. No matter what, the players would lose money to IRS if they unionize or NLRB ruling they have no right to vote.
