We think its important for the court to be aware that the NCAA has abruptly changed its public stance on NIL rights.

Key Points: 
  • We think its important for the court to be aware that the NCAA has abruptly changed its public stance on NIL rights.
  • NCAA athletes are already reaping the benefits, which only makes our case stronger.
  • The NCAA has changed its tactics after college athletes won in Alston, and only then was the NCAA forced to make concessions.
  • The lawsuit seeks to hold the NCAA accountable to college athletes via injunction and damages for the NCAAs antitrust violations regulating the profits gained from the use of college athletes names, images and likenesses, specifically:
    An injunction voiding rules prohibiting compensation to college athletes for use of their name, image and likeness.
