I thought the NCAA rules specifically prevent that?

This is forward thinking by the CT legislators for sure.
NEXT STEP: Getting all UConn WBB NIL contracts to include a mandate that the sponsoring party MUST promote and air their clients ads in Knoxville, South Bend, and Columbia every time they air elsewhere.

While this is great for UConn athletes, it will be interesting to see how other states respond. As most people know, the NCAA abdicated their responsibility to create uniform NIL rules across college sports, leaving it up to individual conferences and states. This created a hodgepodge of different rules and regulations on NIL depending on the conference and/or state where an athlete plays.
Or pee pads.So you can use Jonathan in NIL adds. Someone is going to get paid big bucks promoting dog food….
Just a matter of time……

OK, I just did some research and here’s the scoop. CT is not leading the way on NIL. In fact, they were one of only 2 states that did not permit athletes to wear team uniforms, employ mascots, etc., thereby putting Connecticut athletes at a disadvantage. Interestingly enough, the other state that prohibits athletes from wearing team uniforms, etc. is SC.
Pretty big disadvantage considering that we are talking about the two WBB teams that made it to the championship game.

That would be interesting to know.

So official jerseys with the player's number on is a possibility now? I might actually snag a couple for myself

Right. My personal advice to these athletes would be to keep their deals out of school business. This potential scenario now involves TWO Ls (likenesses) ...the player and the school. NIL broke that bond and gave the athlete freedom...so why go backwards?

Yes. A couple examples:
- The University of Michigan pays football players who agree to have their names on the back of jerseys that the school sells
- The University of NC has signed a blanket licensing agreement with all their athletes that permits them to use the UNC logo in their NIL deals.

For sure, if they don't add some more details beyond ..you can make a deal. Agents are wolves. But, so are politicians. Turn this over to an independent arbitration firm. In this case...if I were the school I would give him less time to reaffirm his commitment or pack his bags so I can get a replacement. Not fair to the team, especially those who will never get a deal no matter where they go. If he's that good....go play professionally and see how many deals he gets in the G League.This is where NIL is headed

The NCAA will be seeking an Emmert clone.
Starting to look that way………
