NIL GO - More clarity on validity of payments to athletes.

The House v. NCAA settlement aims to create a new process for approving NIL (name, image, and likeness) deals to prevent “pay-for-play” arrangements. Recently, details about this process, managed by a clearinghouse called “NIL Go,” were shared in a memo. The clearinghouse will not block deals but will flag them for schools to review. Schools will decide whether a payer is a booster or part of a collective. Deloitte, the firm creating the software for the clearinghouse, may charge schools fees ranging from $5,000 to $500,000.
