Athlete Pay

People involved in athletics say Florida is somewhat of an outlier in preventing schools from helping athletes secure deals through the name, image and likeness — or NIL — law.

Mark Emmert wants a uniform standard nationwide for the types of businesses that could pay athletes in exchange for endorsing products.

A Florida law allowing athletes to receive off-the-field compensation took effect July 1. Similar laws across the country prompted the NCAA to adopt a “uniform interim policy” allowing athletes nationwide to profit.

Starting July 1, athletes will be able to hire agents and will be required to disclose to the universities any contracts for compensation.

The board's rule change complies with a new state law that allows student athletes to earn compensation from their name, image and likeness starting on July 1.
