I haven't clicked any of that but curious if the NCAA is going to try and charge a fee for their "oversight"?
I could just see them requiring every deal to come through their clearinghouse and then take a cut.

“It is important that our compliance officers, our faculty reps, our athletic directors and everyone involved in this space contribute to developing the guardrails that we will need around these activities,” Smith said during Wednesday’s conference call. “We need to make sure that with this opportunity and the accountability and the responsibility that we’re providing our student-athletes, we provide the protections necessary so that they can do it with integrity, in the right way and ultimately, not be taken advantage of.”
How exactly that regulation will take place, and what all it will entail, is still uncertain. Drake said the “guardrails” will seek to prevent payments to athletes directly from schools or conferences or tied to their athletic performance or recruitments. Smith said there will be no cap on what student-athletes are allowed to earn – Drake said that was never considered – but Smith does believe the NCAA should determine fair market values for various opportunities to draw the line between genuine compensation for use of name, image and likeness and payments tied to athletic participation that are disguised as NLI benefits.
“We just have to be reasonable,” Smith said. “If I do a deal with Panera Bread and I do two likes (on social media) and they pay me $50,000 for that, I’m not so sure within the realm of what we’re talking about. So we just need to take our time, again continue to educate ourselves, and come up with a process to allow us to at least bring transparency to the activities, so that we can make some decisions.
“We will look for abnormal activity or abnormal payments to ensure that they're consistent with the level of compensation that should be provided relative to the activity. There'll be some subjectivity there because that's the market, but the reality is the reasonable, rational and prudent review of that activity will hopefully allow us to determine if it's appropriate.”
Good luck with all of that.....

NCAA ANNOUNCES THIRD-PARTY COMPENSATION FOR STUDENT-ATHLETES TO BEGIN IN 2021
Collegiate student-athletes are one step closer to profiting from their name, image and likeness, as the NCAA announced Wednesday that new rules for third-party compensation are expected to take effect at the start of the 2021-22 academic year.
The NCAA Board of Governors supported rule changes in a meeting this week that would allow players to make money from endorsements related to and separate from athletics, as well as social media opportunities and personal appearances, according to a release from the NCAA.
“Throughout our efforts to enhance support for college athletes, the NCAA has relied upon considerable feedback from and the engagement of our members, including numerous student-athletes, from all three divisions,” Ohio State President and chair of the board Michael V. Drake said in the release. “Allowing promotions and third-party endorsements is uncharted territory.”
Despite the changes, the NCAA will maintain guardrails surrounding the new rules. Student-athletes will not be allowed to use their conference and school logos or other trademarks, and schools and boosters will be barred from paying student-athletes to play or using their name, image and likeness for recruiting. Agents and advisers will also be regulated, according to the release.
Following the board’s recommendation, rules will be structured further in the NCAA’s three divisions. Rules changes will follow a set of guidelines that the board established in October, including maintaining the priorities of education, distinguishing collegiate and professional opportunities and ensuring student-athletes receive similar treatment to nonathlete students “unless a compelling reason exists to differentiate,” according to the release.
“The NCAA’s work to modernize name, image and likeness continues, and we plan to make these important changes on the original timeline, no later than January 2021,” Ohio State athletic director and working group co-chair Gene Smith said in the release. “The board’s decision today provides further guidance to each division as they create and adopt appropriate rules changes.”
Drake said the NCAA will continue to work with Congress throughout the process of modernizing its rules.

Just sayin': Originally I wondered if this would mean less underclassmen would declare for the draft. However, I'll guess no. The top tier guys will get more in the NFL than from endorsements in college and the marginal guys won't get enough money from endorsements in college to make it worthwhile. However, you'll still get guys like Damon Arnette that will come back for his final year in an attempt to improve his draft stock. He could get some endorsement money, but that wasn't the real reason he came back.

I think it will change the outlook.
Some guys leave despite knowing they'll be UDFA, practice squad, etc. because they're getting nothing in school... and have a kid or parents they want to provide for. This could be the stopgap that keeps them plugged in, perhaps the promise of building relationships with a future employer / backup plan, etc.
It really depends on the ecosystem that builds up around this... which will vary greatly by school.
Wouldn't underestimate the ability of Ohio State AD to connect a kid like Damon Arnette to a vendor willing to sponsor a 3rd year starter's Sr year. Flagship Universities know how to bring money in from businesses, local and national... they're very good at it. It's a well oiled machine.
Doesn't change a lot for the big movers... but it does open opportunities for Flagships that have fallen behind (USC & Texas), for those who have alumni connections (Oregon & Maryland), or willing to push the boundaries (Louisville). A few will capitalize on that opportunity. Most will waste it. USC vs Oregon could get interesting... USC looks poised to let the opportunity pass them by, but can't deny the potential for silly money... Hollywood, Trojan, Tinder, god knows what... to get involved. And I'm sure Phil Knight is already making plans with Oregon.

College athletes will very soon be able to profit off of their name, image, and likeness. And this SI cover from 2011 is going to age spectacularly poorly.

SKULL SESSION: ANTHONY GONZALEZ TALKS CONGRESS' RESPONSE TO THE NCAA RULES CHANGE, OHIO STATE IMMEDIATELY USES NEW NCAA RULES IN RECRUITING, AND LONG SNAPPER LIAM MCCULLOUGH BLOCKED CHASE YOUNG FOR NFL PREP
GONZO'S GOTTA GET IT DONE. If the NCAA's new rule change is going to work, it's going to need some help from congress. Thankfully, we've got Gonzo on the case.
NCAA president Mark Emmert said the association will also be turning to Congress for help in making the proposed changes possible. The working group's report says the NCAA should ask the federal government to help provide "guardrails" that would create one law that applies to all schools and also to "[e]stablish an antitrust exemption for the Association" that would provide cover from future lawsuits challenging potential caps the NCAA would place on the type of endorsements athletes could make and the value of those endorsements.
"It's clear we need Congress's help in all of this," Emmert said.
Federal legislators have shown interest in creating laws about how college athletes are paid in the past year, but the coronavirus pandemic and an upcoming presidential election present obstacles to quickly passing any legislation. Emmert said the NCAA could vote to approve these proposals even if Congress does not provide all the help that is being requested. He added that he thought passing a law in the coming year was "certainly within the realm of doable."
...
(Anthony) Gonzalez, a former wide receiver at Ohio State and in the NFL, said there are still important details for politicians and college sports stakeholders to figure out. He suggested that the government might create some type of clearinghouse to help the NCAA regulate its new NIL market. He said he is confident that answers will emerge in the coming months for one simple reason.
"We have no other choice," Gonzalez told ESPN. "... Whether we like it or not, those questions have to be answered. Do we get it perfect? Probably not, I don't know. But it's certainly something that needs to be done."
A lot of changes are coming and I have no idea how all of this is going to play out, but I do know that is it's a remarkably convenient time to have a former All-Big Ten football player in Congress.
