Student athletes deserve the right to capitalize on their own name, image, and likeness

For many Americans across the country, college sports are not just a pastime enjoyed with friends and family, but rather a part of the culture of who we are and where we are from. Ohio and Missouri are prime examples of places where college sports take on more meaning than just something to watch on TV. Whether it’s a primetime game at the Horseshoe or a matchup against Kansas at Mizzou Arena, the passion for college athletics is palpable.
It is this love of college sports, bolstered by our own experiences as student athletes, that has driven two congressmen from different political parties, parts of the country, and college sports allegiances to address the great injustice that currently exists — the inability of student athletes to capitalize on their own name, image, and likeness or NIL.
