I would argue Tortious Interference. Adidas has a contract with a school to supply products and they are actively interfering with the school’s ability to play and promote their amateur athleties/athletics by jeopardizing their students eligibility.

Not only that, there are hundreds of universities that have a contract with the NCAA, and these shoe sharks are interfering with each and every one of those contracts. The damage isn't just to the recipient school. The other schools have lost airfare, lost hotel expense, lost food expenses, wasted coaching salaries, and lost potential revenue by other coaches recruiting the same kids within the framework of their contract with the NCAA. The shoe companies are interfering with ALL of those contracts and causing systemic damage, when they provide 3rd party funds to a prospect.
They really should have considered that angle.Kung Wu say, man who read woman like book, prefer braille!

Yes it would be cool. Think about the old Missouri Valley and similar conferences. What if 5- Star talent was consistently signing up to play at Drake, Southern Illinois, etc. What kind of TV contract would the league have???? Probably a pretty big one. One that would be waaaaay more in line with the P-5 competition making a level playing field across the whole NCAA. Cheating only makes it unfair for the whole of the NCAA. Other conferences should be pissed with the unfairness. But...perhaps that's how the NCAA likes it.FINAL FOURS:

I'm not sure how they can claim the schools are being victimized. These 5 star players bring massive amounts of attention and winning, which excites a fanbase, creates opportunities for TV contracts, and brings future 5 star players that create a self-perpetuating success spiral. And the only way the NCAA can "punish" a school for ineligible players is to vacate wins (which is always long after the fact and has absolutely no impact on the school's present and future success or its past media hype) or to impose a postseason ban--which rarely happens, and then has only a slight impact on the program.
It seems to me the schools know there's really no downside for them or their program no matter what the NCAA does. The coaches may lose their jobs, but for the school there's little risk, weak consequences, and therefore, no real victimization.
What if the NCAA was able to punish a school for infractions by pulling a school's regular season media rights in addition to a post season ban, so none of its games would appear on TV or online for a season or two? In this day and age, that might as well be the death penalty."It's amazing to watch Ron slide into that open area, Fred will find him and it's straight cash homie."--HCGM

Didn't the NCAA used to put a ban on televised games? But that was argued to be hurting the other school playing?
