I've had that situation come up also when I worked. It sucked.

I've wondered about the linemen and heavy equipment guys who come in after disasters. I don't know if the states like NC or GA waive the income tax hit after disasters but they should.

I think that's different. They are W-2 employees. So, if they reside in the state of the company, it won't matter where they get sent. I managed scrap yards for a bit. Company was in ATL. I lived in GA. But, one of the 3 yards I managed was in SC. I didn't have to pay/file SC tax in that scenario. The other company I lived in GA. But, worked in a plant in SC. So, had to pay SC and get credit on GA filing.

Does spark a curious question though. How about a independent contractor guy. Lives in State A, but also contracts jobs in neighboring States B & C. Does he file 3 states if they all have income tax? And salesmen. A W-2 saleman would be simple. But what about a 1099 salesman in a multi-state territory. That would seem an awful lot like a pro athlete scenario.

Seems athletes really get screwed by all the tax men lining up. Curious of the dynamics of having them as W-2 employees with some type of contract that allows them to be residents of the states of the organzation and not having to file in all the states they play. And still be tradeable and disposible.

I've really no idea though the infamous "jock tax" is a thing with even pro cities having them to get a piece of the visiting athlete's money.

I'd like to think lawyers and tax accountants could develop some kind of corporation or something that employs only the one athlete but remains tax sheltered so teams pay that company, not the athlete.

I've dealt with some interesting individuals who used "shell" company situations to hide their personal involvement, like using a foundation to keep your name out of the spotlight, only a little sleazier (probably.)

How does that help the players? What problem does it solve?

The problem of leaving before their team has finished the season.

Their dilemma is

-if they wait too long to enter the portal all thr spots and NIL money may be gone.

-if they enter in time for what is best for them, it lets their teammates down amd they get lambasted by fans.

If their only time to enrer the portal is onece the spring semester is finished, those two issues are eliminated

Posted this article on another thread but thought it would be of interest here. The Pavia thing is just another loss for the NCAA in a long line. Summarizes some of the issues that the NCAA has lost on and mentions that collective bargaining may be the only thing that solves this mess.

Diego Pavia court ruling another potentially massive blow for NCAA — 'It's not going to end until we collectively bargain'

The 30,000-foot view of the Pavia decision: It not only paves the way for all junior college players to gain an additional year, but it may invite even more legal challenges over the NCAA's eligibility rules.

That creates an even bigger issue. The spring semester has already started when the spring portal opens. The transfers have to be enrolled before then.

The NCAA members overwhelmingly support their rules? Burglars support crime, too.

There’s about 15 of us old farts meet for breakfast once a month. We are die hard Bama fans, Georgia fans, Tenn. fans, even a Florida St fan and one thing we all have in common is we’re fed up with College football. Early stages of pissed off fans will only grow to more pissed off fans. If changes aren’t made soon the money will stop coming in. They’re slowly putting a noose around their neck.

I'm not sure what they're supposed to do at this point when the courts are slapping down everything the NCAA tries to stop.

NIL? They saw the writing on the wall after the Supreme Court said they couldn't restrict schools from giving educational benefits.

Wholesale transfers? Court ordered multi transfers with no restrictions on eligibility.

As for the money, they have new media deals that run for years and are worth billions. Also, media viewership is up, not down.

I'm an old fart but we've got nothing they want except our eyeballs at this point and I miss the heck out of football in the off season. It's like being upset with your wife. You glare at her all evening but you're lost if she's not next to you in the morning.
