A bill in Missouri would allow college athletes to make money off their name and their likeness. Supporters say companies and college athletics have been making money off athletes for decades and it's time players get in on the action. Show Less

There’s a fine balance. Keep their scholarship money the same and if they want to build their brand with a 3rd party - let them!

Larry Ewart

There will be problems going forward with NIL. The D1 institutions created this monster by chasing money by way of conference realignment, paying outlandish salaries to coaches,AD’s , etc. The players are only wanting part of the action.

Opponents say such a system would exacerbate inequities that already exist among college athletics programs and create a financial burden for schools.

If they do then they also should have to pay for their courses, no scholarships

Elizabeth Spalding

This would make them professionals, just indirectly rather than direct sponsorship.

Fred Colbern

I'd rather see a state law prohibiting state employees from publicly supporting professional or college sports, that includes attending games.

Lois Woods Stevens

99% have full scholarships, that is enough!! It is such a shame that so much is given to athletics.

Max

Many people with scholarships have part time jobs. Are you saying that athletes don't deserve an alternate income source? That seems rather biased to me.
