It’s official: California governor Gavin Newsom just signed the “Fair Pay to Play Act” into law, which will allow student-athletes in California to profit off their names, images, and likenesses.
The Act will go into effect in 2023, at which point players will be able to hire agents, sign endorsement deals, and accept paid youth coaching positions. The law also bans schools from kicking athletes off the team if they get paid.
This bill will start an all-out war between California and the NCAA. And other states may follow suit, which will throw college sports into turmoil and hysteria.
