15-1167
Issue:(1) Whether, in determining an appropriate remedy for a violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act under the Rule of Reason, a court may treat the restraint itself here, the agreement among the NCAA and its members prohibiting college athlete compensation, or what the NCAA calls amateurism as a legitimate procompetitive effect: and (2) whether, after finding a violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act under the Rule of Reason, a court is restricted to awarding relief that the plaintiff proves is virtually as effective as the restraint in serving its alleged purposes, without significantly increased cost.
