President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order establishing national standards for name, image and likeness initiatives, according to CBS News. Within the past week, members of the U.S. House of Representatives introduced an amended bill called the SCORE Act (Student Compensation and Opportunity through Rights and Endorsements) aiming to "protect the name, image, and likeness rights of student-athletes to promote fair compensation with respect to intercollegiate athletics, and for other purposes."

The bill could open the door for federal standards for NIL legislation, superseding the current state laws that provide guidance on player compensation.

I was told there would be no math.

The little info that is there indicates this does ... nothing, yet?

Some of the listed rules are already rules that the conferences have agreed to (nothing like taking credit for solved problems...), and some are just "proposed".

I do think there should be a national standard and the state laws mishmash that seem to game the system should be done away with.

I do doubt this will "protect" students long term ...

Nothing burger. Legislation is required.

At least Trump killed gambling in this country. We won't have to worry about seeing all the sports gambling ads anymore.
