Oregon Lawmaker Files Bill to Amend State NIL Law, Take Aim at Key House Settlement Terms

Recommended Posts

 

As the House v. NCAA approval hearing looms, an Oregon lawmaker filed a bill taking aim at one of the key terms. The filing would amend the state’s current NIL law.

 

State Rep. John Lively (D) filed H.B. 3694 Tuesday, which would prohibit the NCAA or any other governing organization from requiring college athletes to disclose their earnings. Under the House settlement, third-party NIL deals worth more than $600 would need to be approved by a clearinghouse that will vet contracts.

I rather doubt this bill will be enacted.  Oregon was a pioneer state in the open meetings law for governmental bodies.  Federal public records act comes into play.  The reality is that paid college athletes in a state owned school are public employees.  In no sense are they independent contractors.  Private schools like Stanford and USC have a right to secrecy.  When the people own the school, the people have a right to know.
