Darren Heitner joins the show (8:32 - 36:13) to cover the United States Senate Hearing “NCAA Athlete NIL Rights,” covering the pressing need for federal legislation in the college sports arena. We discuss which states have now passed NIL, the next ones to follow, and how this will impact the urgency of Congress and the timeline for the NCAA’s own NIL. We assess the performance of NCAA President Mark Emmert and the possibility of injunctions filed by the NCAA against states to block their NIL from going into effect. Emmert got attacked by politicians on both sides of the aisle… but is it all for show… or does Congress truly have a plan to pass legislation? July 1st looms large. Tick Tock. *** Have a question or something you want us to cover next episode?
