ESPN estimates how much money athletes would make with NIL rights

This has been a long time coming for student athletes across the country.

It has been a major debate between coaches, members of the media, players and fans for the better part of the last 20 years, and has really intensified over the last five.

After all the talk, it looks like it’s finally going to happen. In January, the NCAA will vote on a proposal to allow student-athletes to profit off their name, image, and likeness.

The proposal includes many rules on what players can and can’t be paid for. As you can imagine, there are a lot of details, so ESPN made it digestible for all of us.
