Jaden Rashada case in Florida highlights issues in NIL, recruiting

Read full article: Jaden Rashada case in Florida highlights issues in NIL, recruiting

Using name, image and likeness compensation to recruit college athletes is still very much against NCAA rules. The recent de-commitment from Florida by blue chip quarterback Jaden Rashada shows that NIL is definitely a factor in decisions. Booster-funded collectives are taking on a big role in compensating athletes. Schools can only hope they are acting within the rules and in their best interest. Inserting a third-party in the recruiting process between coaches and recruits has only complicated things. Experts say the collectives should focus on athletes who are already on campus.

Rubio backs bill to take national approach to paying college athletes

Read full article: Rubio backs bill to take national approach to paying college athletes

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Warning about a patchwork of laws in different states, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., announced legislation Thursday that would require the NCAA to put in place rules that would allow college athletes to get paid for their names, images and likenesses. Ron DeSantis signed a bill designed to allow Florida college athletes to receive compensation. Rubios proposal would take a national approach, requiring the NCAA to put in place rules by June 30, 2021, that would allow athletes to be compensated. As states continue to pass laws determining how college athletes can be compensated for their name, image, and likeness, it is clear that a patchwork of 50 state laws would be devastating to college sports, Rubio said in a prepared statement. The bill DeSantis signed last Friday establishes rights for college athletes and schools and allows students to have professional representation through agents licensed by the state or attorneys in good standing with The Florida Bar.
