Eventually maybe, but I think the involvement of the NCAA makes it easier for the universities to pretend that the athletes are students. If that whole system blew up (which I really don't see ever happening, there will be negotiations and a settlement eventually), then maybe it'd make more sense for those schools to just run separate private entities that do sports and hire athletes.
