The state of Michigan House of Representatives saw a bill introduced this week that would change the way NIL is dealt with under the new Grant House v. NCAA settlement.

From On3:

House Bill No. 4643 was introduced by Reps. Tate, Herzberg, and Rheingans last week. In it, the bill would completely ban reporting deals to the NCAA. On top of that, it would also prohibit schools from assisting in any investigation and ban athletic associations from penalizing athletes or schools for non-compliance.

While the House settlement was largely known as the settlement that would allow for revenue sharing, there’s more to it than just that. Among the other agreements in it to try and shape the future of college athletics was that NIL deals above $600 will need third-party approval. To do that, those deals are going to be sent to a new clearinghouse called NIL Go. Deloitte is set to oversee the fair compensation ranges for that.

From there, the House settlement also established a new enforcement agency called the College Sports Commission. It would be their job to handle those investigations into improper deals done outside the system that the settlement is seeking to establish.

Both the third-party approval and the new enforcement agency would be directly affected by this bill if it were to be passed and signed into law. This comes in a state with five FBS programs. That includes two Big Ten schools, Michigan and Michigan State. The Wolverines, of course, have won a national championship as recently as the 2023 season.

Quote Of The Day

“They are the top team until he decides to flip or decommit. There is plenty of competition. Miami and Florida are both working extremely hard to keep him in-state. He says all the right things about Michigan. He has a great relationship with LaMar Morgan. He’s committed there for a reason. But I still feel like Michigan is going to have to work hard to keep him in this class. Until this thing is done, multiple schools will try to flip him, and it starts with the in-state schools, Florida and Miami.”
