Problem:
Will proposed legislation protect the outside employment rights of college athletes, ensure fair monetization of their names, images, and likenesses (NIL), deter the use of NILs as recruiting or retention inducements, and expose and penalize unscrupulous agents? Will these NIL bills address the current recruiting chaos created by boosters forming NIL collectives and the patchwork of NIL state laws? Are NIL bills calling for improvements in athletes' medical coverage affordable? Is the determination of fair market value an essential mechanism for deciding whether NIL contracts are "inducements" and "extra benefits"? Does the NCAA require an antitrust exemption to control the cost of athletic programs?
