A Skier, a Kicker, and an Avatar Walk Into a Bar… Where the NCAA went wrong on NIL
Mar 28, 2023
12:45 PM - 01:45 PM
130 Byington Road, Iowa City, IA 52246
In the National Collegiate Athletic Association’s new name, image and likeness era, Jeremy Bloom, a college football star and Olympic skier, has largely been forgotten. But it was Bloom’s plea for common sense relief from NCAA amateurism rules 20 years ago that first put the organization at an NIL crossroads that ultimately led to a series of strategic wrong turns and have left the NCAA begging Congress for relief from its missteps. University of Iowa professor Dan Matheson, a former NCAA associate director of enforcement, will talk about the history behind today’s NIL era in college athletics and the challenges ahead for the NCAA and answer questions.
