Paying the Players - The Legal Road to NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) - An In-Person Event

Description

For decades, college athletes could not be paid for the use of their name, image, or likeness. Today local businesses are among those signing athletes to endorsement, appearance, and social media deals. Join law student Aaron Stevenson and Attorney Eyal Barash of Barash Law LLC on December 4 from 11:30–1:00 for a lunch workshop tracing how that change happened, from the NCAA’s amateurism rules through the antitrust cases, state laws, and recent settlement that reshaped college athletics. The workshop then turns to what a small business should know before signing a college or high school athlete: which deals face outside review and when, what an NIL contract should cover, and how advertising-disclosure and tax rules apply. Lunch is included. ~~ Presenters: Attorney Eyal Barash, Barash Law, LLC & Law student, Aaron Stevenson Date: December 4, 2026 Time: 11:30 - 1:00 p.m. EDT Location: MatchBOX Coworking Studio, 17th South 6th Street, Lafayette, IN 47901.
