They don't have to repeal those rules yet. The only things on the table were educated-related compensation, such as eligibility, scholarships and similar matters.

However, Kavanaugh's concurrence and the basis of the court's opinion certainly mean that federal courts would look at other restrictions on payments to students as violations of anti-trust laws. So technically the rules prohibiting boosters giving kids "jobs" are still valid. It remains to be seen whether NCAA will withdraw those or if it will take further litigation to nullify those as well.

This will have a tremendous impact upon NCAA's investigation of KU Basketball, among other things.
