The new state law allows athletes at the University of Illinois to enter into approval deals and make commercials to play balls with businesses and create banks from businesses.

The Student Athletes Approval Act allows student athletes to be rewarded for the use of their name, voice, image, or portrait for the first time.

Sponsor Comebackner, D-Chicago, said he was lucky to play soccer at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and lead the fight 14 years after taking off his orange helmet.

“This bill is about fairness, about equality, about autonomy, about fair markets, about the legal beliefs we call personality rights, but moreover, this The bill is essentially about fairness. Fairness, fairness, fairness, “Buckner said. “This bill has been postponed for a long time, and what we are signaling here is that these young people will continue to be financially oppressed while injecting huge amounts into our economy. It means you can’t. “

Backer said it wasn’t just a “win” for star quarterbacks.

“This gives female tennis players the opportunity to be rewarded for teaching lessons in their hometown during the summer vacation,” he said. “This creates a device for female softball players to lend her image to a local pizzeria for fair market value.”

Governor JB Pritzker signed the law (SB2338 / Public law 102-0042) Tuesday at the State Farm Center, an on-campus auditorium where the UIUC basketball team plays.

“This is what we all dreamed of,” said Irini’s aggressive lineman. Vederian Law said.. “This is a big problem for all of us. Being part of the student athlete community, this is what we all deserve and need. No matter what sport we play, we spend countless hours. You know that. “

The law includes safeguards that prohibit future new employees from signing agreements with universities and athletic organizations.

DePaul Athletic Director DeWayne Peevy said it would help recruit in the “competitive college athlete industry” and said DePaul student athletes attend school in the third largest media market in the United States.

Universities can impose “reasonable” restrictions to protect the integrity of the program, but student athletes cannot be punished for endorsement transactions.

Student athletes may also not enter into promotional contracts to promote gambling, sports betting, marijuana, tobacco, or alcohol.

A council of the National Collegiate Athletic Association recommended on Monday to suspend a long-standing rule prohibiting amateur athletes from using their images.

The NCAA full board will meet on Friday and May address the issue..
