How NIL Changed the College Sports Game
About The Event
One of the most impactful changes in the history of collegiate athletics happened just a year ago when the NCAA agreed to allow its athletes to profit off of their name, image, and likeness (NIL).
This landmark ruling, in turn, completely upended the business of college sports for athletes, schools, agents and marketers. On Wednesday, July 20, Front Office Sports takes an inside look at the changing landscape a year later — and what’s next for college sports, athletes and brands.
