NAIA becomes first league to pass "Name, Image and Likeness" legislation
The NAIA has moved ahead of the NCAA and passed "Name, Image and Likeness" legislation that will apply for the 2020-21 season.
The NAIA has become the first college athletic league to pass legislation to allow athletes to be compensated based on their Name, Image and Likeness (NIL).
The language of the NAIA's change specifically allows for athletes to be compensated for "promoting any commercial product, enterprise, or for public or media appearance." Athletes will be allowed to reference their school in these ventures.
