direct and public relationships with the collectives that pay their athletes for their name, image and likeness.
Last week, Gov. Bill Lee signed an amendment to the state law that will allow college coaches to attend NIL events, universities to fundraise for NIL collectives and NIL representatives to make presentations on campus to recruits and players.
Alabama repealed its NIL law, so its universities are free to work directly with collectives. Florida, Kentucky and Virginia are among states trying to do the same with an amendment.
In short, a coach and their player can be involved in the same NIL activities, as long as the coach doesn’t dictate the player’s decision to sign with that collective. The same rule goes for any university employee.
Anybody here got the ear of a state legislator?
