And most season ticket holders are required by their schools to make an annual minimum donation to the athletic department to keep their current seat and parking locations. I believe the NCAA fears that if they try to enforce those bylaws, they will be sued and probably lose in court like they usually do. And no sane institution will ever say no to their sugar daddy donors. It’s probably going to come down to the conference level enforcing a common set of rules. Will this lead to a arms race between conferences? Most definitely. My prediction is that the NCAA will be relegated to running postseason tournaments and setting scholarship limits for each sport.

There is no way to enforce these kinds of rules in an environment where accepting NIL money is within the rules. The NCAA either loses its fight and is forced to become a straight up pay-for-play league or wins it court battle, retaining its currently amateur model. Anyone who thinks the olympic "amateur" model can work in college sports hasnt been paying attention for the last 50 years or more. I dont think that point is difficult to prove given the current ongoing basketball shoe scandal---which is why I think the NCAA actually has a really good chance of winning the court battle. This is not a minor adjustment to the rules---it literally creates a radical sea change in the NCAA's currently successful athletic model.
