Supreme Court keeps NCAA control of college football TV
Justice Byron White ordered that control of football television rights stay with the NCAA delaying a federal ruling that had allowed schools to pursue independent deals with ABC CBS and Turner. The stay preserves the NCAA package valued at 281 million over four years and keeps the 1983 season on existing terms while the case goes to full Supreme Court.
