Abstract
The issues facing the national name, image, and likeness (“NIL”) debate came to a head on January 17, 2023. On that day, Jaden Rashada—the No. 27 rated high school football recruit in the country—decommitted from Florida when a $13 million NIL deal failed to materialize as promised. The story prompted questions about how schools handle NIL initiatives, the amounts of money thrown at collegiate athletes, and the business model at large for college athletics. It also reveals the challenges states face as they attempt to develop regulatory frameworks for NIL.
