Florida, Miami, FSU, FIU, UCF, USF to finish Top 6 In recruiting in 2021

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has signed a new bill allowing college students to be paid for their name, image and likeness. The bill, which will go into effect on July 1, 2021, is the first of its kind on the state level. DeSantis made the announcement while speaking at the University of Miami on Friday.

Helps when you get to pay the players over the table...

Means nothing to NCAA rules. Hell as far as the law goes college students can sell thier football rings and jerseys on Ebay but they will still get in trouble with the NCAA.

This.

It's hollow legislation without NCAA approval.

When enforcement of rules are bottom lined, the Courts and State governments will carry more weight than the NCAA and its self accommodating rules. Simply, a citizen who happens to be a college athlete simply takes the NCAA to the Court for redress of implied considerations by previous Court rulings and State governments. The NCAA will simply bring a knife to a gunfight. The NCAA has soiled its image and has lost a lot of influence.

NCAA membership is voluntary; your argument is not valid.

I just read the text of the bill and I am not a lawyer, but I am pretty sure this bill does nothing. It only seems to prevent the schools from prohibiting the athlete NIL compensation. But since eligibility is determined by the NCAA, any player selling his NIL will still become ineligible.

The 9th Circuit Court Of Appeals and the California State Supreme Court have nullified the voluntary member escape clause. Follow how the O'Bannon case played out. The Supreme Court Of The United States has not validated the voluntary escape clause to over rule any subordinate court or State decision so my argument has standing in a Court of Law which will dictate to and sanction the NCAA and individual members therein. When the NCAA is brought to Court it is the defendant and not the judge and subject to laws outside of NCAA regulations.

That only applies within the ninth circuit, which is the most overturned one. Florida is not under the jurisdiction of the ninth circuit.

I'm not gonna type a 500 word response, I'll just say "Okay".

The NCAA is already doing this themselves.

Except The NCAA has already said this will be legal for all schools in 2022...

So by the time a case would go to a jury trial, it would be legal. And it would be hard to win a jury trial in Florida if all the schools were in it together.

The NCAA knows that it is not in good standing with the Courts through out America so it is approaching Congress to intervene to gain some legal ground it knows it is going to loose. So the Courts and States are planning to enact controls on the NCAA? The Courts and States will jump all over them if they try to use athletic legibility as a weapon to quash their intents?
