The day that college administrators have long dreaded has finally arrived. 


Last week, the Dartmouth men's basketball team officially formed the first-ever labor union in college sports.


And though it may prove to be a union-in-name-only, it is a watershed moment for student athletes, schools, conferences, and the NCAA itself.


So today, ESPN senior writer Dan Murphy explains what it all means and why the professionalization of college athletes looks ready to go into hyperdrive.


You can watch Dan Murphy’s interview with NCAA President Charlie Baker at the ESPN YouTube Channel.
