So even when Florida tries to do the right thing, they’re dicks about it.

NIL act passed - NCAA allows athletes to monetise their name, image, likeness

The U.S. Supreme Court agreed Wednesday to take up the NCAA's appeal of a lower court decision that loosened the limits on compensation given to student athletes.
A federal appeals court ruled in May that the NCAA's limits on education-related benefits — such as computers, musical instruments or postgraduate scholarships — violated anti-trust laws. The ruling was a victory for current and former athletes in Division I basketball and the Football Bowl Subdivision, led by former West Virginia University running back Shawne Alston.
...
The justices also agreed to hear a similar case involving the Power Five athletic conferences — the Big Ten, Southeastern, Atlantic Coast, Big 12 and Pac-12.

The NCAA cut former NFL player Jeremy Bloom's college football career short. Now he's fighting to get college athletes endorsement rights.
Jeremy Bloom, a former NFL player and Olympic skier, made a film about the way the NCAA doesn't allow college athletes to profit from their name.

So not much has been talked about this July 1st date when athletes attending school in 6 states (Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas) will theoretically be able to profit on their NIL and accept endorsement deals. That's 2 weeks from today where 7 SEC programs, 4 Big 12 programs, and 3 ACC programs, not to mention UCF, USF, Houston, SMU, and other G5/FCS programs can start allowing their athletes to get paid.
Arizona goes into affect on 7/23/21 while California and Colorado are waiting until 1/1/23 (along with other states).
The NCAA can file a lawsuit against the states and request an injunction to delay the implementation of the law, but how has this not gotten more coverage? Complete game changer for recruiting

So does this make the effective dates of individual states irrelevant now? I don’t think Colorado’s goes into effect until 2022?

If your state has a law, schools follow that law.
If you state does not have a law, schools write their own guidelines
So that sucks for every program not in a few SEC states and Arizona

Why?
Because there are only 5 states with laws that go into effect on 7/1

There are more but the key point is that universities in states where there are no laws get to write their own guidelines.
Athletes on those states can earn money tomorrow just like states where their are laws.
When will we see CU’s guidelines? Who will be first athlete with a deal? And when?
Most states do not have a law concerning amateur status. The NCAA did the right thing given the circumstances to keep it as fair as they can.
I was watching the news where they were interviewing Jeremy Bloom about this. It occurred to me that the NCAA ****ed with the wrong guy. Had the NCAA just been reasonable, decent human beings with Bloom, they’d have their precious exemption today.

After the Alston ruling, the NCAA is scared to death. They basically violated anti-trust provisions for many, many years. They got their asses handed to them 9-0. And SCOTUS warned them to be very careful going forward.

NIL deals rolling on.
20K to King. NFT as well. Whoa. .
Females with large social accounts are going to win big in early days.
Jackson State players cashing it. It’s not just D1.
Get on this Buffs. Massive change.
The state legislature will need to move up the effective date. Pretty sure CO and CA are 7/1 of 2023

I read the law last night. I think CU is better off writing their own guidelines. They should be published today. Buffs should be signing deals this week.
Again, how can they do this on their own when CO has already passed legislation that says it doesn't go into effect until 2023?

The NCAA guidelines allow universities in states that have not passed laws or whose laws go into effect at a later date to write their own guidelines. (McCann). It would not be fair for some universities to have their athletes and others not have it.
A poster on another site says Polis enacted it eve rice today. I can’t find that.
Some governors have just done Exe university orders.
The NCAA passed some rules yesterday that allows all states to do this. It’s never been illegal. Just against NCAA rules. This is why states passed legislation. The went above the NCAA.
Thank you. That was my original question yesterday. I thought the CO legislation was already in place for 2023, which is why I didn't think CU would be able to write their own rules. This makes more sense.
