College sports has struggled to deal with fallout from a 2021 Supreme Court decision allowing college players to profit from their name, image and likeness.
Cavinder twins, Nick Saban join Cruz roundtable as lawmakers seek elusive consensus on name, image and likeness compensation.
“The last thing we want to have is congressional hearings to define what pass interference is,” Cruz said. “That is not the role of politicians or a government agency.”But Congress could provide the NCAA, which is bogged down in litigation, with some legal certainty. He also said it’s important to have a system that preserves competition rather than creating situations where the equivalent of an NFL team is facing off against a junior high flag football squad.
So-called booster collectives have grown beyond the role originally envisioned and are contributing to a difficult environment in which some student athletes are being offered deals that don’t preserve their rights, he said.“While you have some collectives that are negotiating fair contracts, there’s also a lot of contracts that I’ve personally reviewed that look unconscionable on their face,” Heitner said.
