January 17, 2022 Group Watch: Repeal of NIL Law Being Discussed

A 2021 law that allows college athletes to make money off their name, image and likeness (NIL) is likely to be repealed in the coming weeks. A bill was approved by a House committee last week to do just that. The move is not intended to take things back to the days when college athletes were prohibited from earning money with their NIL. It is on the chopping block simply because it is actually more restrictive than the NCAA rules on NIL and therefore, could put Alabama universities at a disadvantage when recruiting athletes. Repealing the law has the support of both Auburn University and The University of Alabama. Read more here.
