Message: [QUOTE="texascpa, post: 4255521, member: 468"] The only way you reign in NIL deals is to put the players under contract that signs away their NIL rights (which is possible). The problem with that, of course, is it will cause players to "unionize" and broker a collective bargaining agreement, which will in turn require universities to pay players for giving up their NIL rights. The players aren't going to sign away their rights for nothing. Basically, you end up with players being paid either way. I am even suspect of the Federal government getting involved (I'm still not sure how NIL is a federal issue). I would fully suspect if the Federal government passed something, it would be contested in the courts immediately, eventually making it's way to the Supreme Court. [/QUOTE]
