College Football Coaches’ Pay And Contracts: Are They Overpaid And Unfairly Treated?, Randall Thomas, Lawrence Van Horn
College Football Coaches’ Pay And Contracts: Are They Overpaid And Unfairly Treated?, Randall Thomas, Lawrence Van Horn
Indiana Law Journal
College football coaches’ employment contracts and compensation garner public attention and scrutiny in much the same way as those of corporate CEOs.

As a result, key terms in the statute such as "employee," "employer," and "appropriate bargaining unit" were first interpreted in the context of long-term employment and large vertically integrated firms that dominated this era. Beginning in the late 1970s, the new information technology wrought a revolution in the organization of production increasing short-term contingent employment and the organization of firms horizontally in trading and subcontracting relationships across the globe. To maintain the relevance of collective bargaining to the modern workplace, the interpretation of …
