California lawmakers pass bill to allow athletes at state colleges to hire agents and sign endorsement deals.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Lawmakers have sent the governor a bill to allow athletes at California colleges to hire agents and sign endorsement deals.
The bill would allow athletes at California schools to hire agents and be paid for the use of their name, image or likeness. It would stop universities and the NCAA from banning athletes that take the money. In the six-paragraph letter to Newsom, the board said the bill would give California schools an unfair recruiting advantage. As a result, the letter says, the NCAA would declare those schools ineligible for its events.
The NCAA said the legislation would impact more than 24,000 college athletes in the nation's most populous state.
