The NCAA opposes the bill because it would make it illegal for California schools to follow the NCAA's rules on a player's ability to make money by selling the rights to his or her own name, image or likeness. The association is open to updating its rules to better fit the 21st century, according to NCAA Board of Governors Chair Michael Drake, but wants those changes to be made on a national scale rather than state by state.

Drake, who is also the president at Ohio State, told ESPN that the NCAA is "working actively to look at ways to modernize its approach to name, image and likeness restrictions."

Anyway fuck the NCAA

Ridiculous. While Im not in favor of paying college athletes outside of the money they already get for scholarships, room/board and stipends, they 100% should be able to make money off of endorsement and sponsorship deals.
