New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signs bill overhauling NIL in Empire State

Add New York to the list of states that have signed sweeping NIL reform on the local level aimed directly at bypassing oversight by the NCAA.

Didn't see a thread on this. This goes directly in conflict with what NCAA said last week about how they're the main governing body. Regardless, good to have this cover.

Will NIL find a Federal court to review this program?

This seemed to be the punchline...

The Empire State law includes a section that appears to provide cover for state schools from being punished by the NCAA for any NIL-related violations, including any committed by collectives set up to support student-athletes through deal facilitation.

When you say “state schools” are you referring to all schools within the State of New York or SUNY schools. If it is SUNY, not sure how much SUNY D1 schools like Buffalo, Stony Brook and Binghamton that section would be affected by that clause as compared to St. John’s, Syracuse or Fordham.

It means all schools within the state of NY.

Syracuse was the main school lobbying for it, apparently. I think the law even states the NCAA cannot investigate.

Thanks.

More confusion which will lead to lawsuits and court cases.
