Description
The NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) legislation landscape is rapidly evolving, affecting how college athletes can profit from their NIL. While college athletes nationwide can now benefit from their NIL, state laws play a crucial role. Under the interim policy, college athletes attending schools in states with active NIL laws must comply with those state laws and any institutional and conference policies. The interim policy remains in effect until federal legislation or new NCAA rules are adopted. The state laws of Mississippi can help inform the federal push for a NIL bill.
