Sens. Tommy Tuberville and Joe Manchin want to create a uniform standard for all 50 states on how college athletes can be paid. There have been no federal laws passed on the issue since a 2021 Supreme Court ruling that guaranteed college athletes would be allowed to make money off their name, image and likeness.
WASHINGTON - Senator Tommy Tuberville, R-AL, wants to install a series of federal rules for students making money off their name image and likeness.
“Basic parameters for all 50 states,” Tuberville said. “Right now you have some states that are going out and offering money to 9th and 10th graders, and some states can’t do that because it’s against the law.” “Hopefully we can put some sense and reality to this, but right now, it’s totally out of control, and you’re having young men and women sign contracts that go to some universities that don’t get their money.It would also bar students from transferring to other schools for three years, with some exceptions. Attorney Jason Setchen said that is not in students best interest.
Setchen said a uniform standard of rules is necessary, and he likes parts of the bill, including setting up a health insurance fund for current and former athletes. But Setchen would like to see a plan that is more in the corner of student athletes.
