Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4259181, member: 44"] I get the idea behind it at least as far as NIL is concerned. I think the original notion is that if the school doesn’t control the negotiation, then they shouldn’t give up the rights to their brand, probably mostly just to void a potential conflict. For example, if school A is a Nike school but athlete X gets a deal with Reebok, or whomever, does the fact that athlete X is wearing the schools jersey is a Reebok ad devalue the schools deal with Nike? On the other hand, is it beneficial to get your logos and word marks as widely disseminated as possible? I haven’t read the legislation but my guess is it merely allows the school to give permission for scholarship athletes to use it’s copyrighted trademarks and images. [/QUOTE]
