Understanding the importance of NIL in collegiates
America loves its sports and it keenly watches a player?s growth. As college NFL players, the NCAA athletes have a rule that allows them to earn money while playing. That?s where the ?name, image, and likeness? NIL aspect comes into the picture. This is a monetary system via which college players all across the country can accept money from different businesses. In exchange for the money, players can either endorse a brand?s product or promote themselves publicly.
However, this new rule was non-existent a few years ago. Players receiving scholarships weren?t allowed to partake in any of the NIL activities. This changed for the better in late 2021. Now college players can money make using different techniques- appearing in advertisements, selling merchandise, selling signed memorabilia, and making paid appearances amongst others.
