Even in the era of NIL, college sports are stacked against student athletes—now lack of transparency is holding them back from a ‘fair market’
AI EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
College athletes navigating name, image, and likeness deals face significant disadvantages compared to professional sports due to the absence of collective bargaining agreements. The lack of financial transparency in these transactions prevents players from effectively evaluating their market value and securing fair compensation. Consequently, student athletes must negotiate complex sponsorship arrangements without the standardized protections or market insights standard in professional leagues.
WHY IT MATTERS
The absence of collective bargaining and financial transparency in college athletics directly undermines the ability of student athletes to secure fair market compensation for their name, image, and likeness.
Without collective bargaining agreements like in pro sports, college athletes are left to navigate NIL blindly.
