For years, talk of college athletics revolved around high-minded ideals like the love of sport and competition, not money. But that didn’t keep schools or their athletic conferences from making billions from players’ efforts. Now athletes are finally on the brink of profiting from their success, thanks to a wave of state laws taking effect soon.
On July 1, student athletes in at least six states—including Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Texas—will be able to earn money by doing things such as marketing themselves on social media and selling autographs. The uneven spread of name, image and likeness ( NIL) legislation has drawn the ire of the NCAA, which argues that a jumble of state rules will sow confusion and create unfair advantages for schools. At the behest of the NCAA, a divided Congress is working to advance a federal law that would immediately establish national standards for all college athletes. However, given several competing congressional bills and disagreement over the scope of the proposals, the state-level roll outs may be the ones that establish the initial rules.
Texas on June 14 became the latest state to pass a bill allowing athletes to be compensated by outside businesses for the use of their name and likeness. Still, swift action from the NCAA could result in a deal that leads to a national standard before the state rules kick in. "The NCAA could come up with a national standard," Dave Ridpath, a college sports expert and past president of the Drake Group says. "I just don’t think the membership is going to be liberal enough to really give the athletes the control over their name, image and likeness that they deserve.
Whatever happens on the national level, student athletes in some states will soon be able to make thousands of dollars posting on Twitter and Instagram and signing autographs. That’s where marketplaces like OpenSponsorship and Playbooked come in. The companies offer platforms that enable athletes to connect with marketing partners and brands. OpenSponsorship’s platform has facilitated more than $2.3 million in deals over the past year for thousands of professional athletes, taking a 20% cut from marketing deals.
The temptation to make big bucks sooner has already shaken up the world of basketball. A number of top high school prospects who want to forgo their college eligibility have chosen to play for the NBA’s G League Ignite, go overseas, or join new programs such as Overtime Elite, a league for young players. Bypassing college sports can sometimes result in a six- or seven-figure salary and success in the big leagues.
"Eventually this will all be figured out. But there are going to be bumps, and this will be a dynamic process," Ridpath says. "College sports are not minor league. They are major league, and it’s time to be less restrictive. "
What is the attitude of NCAA towards NIL laws?
选项
A、Supportive.
B、Indifferent.
C、Complimentary.
D、Indignant.
答案
D
解析
态度题。根据题干可定位至第二段。由drawn the ire“引起愤怒”,sow confusion“播下混乱的种子”,create unfair advantages“造成不公平的优势”可知应该选择负面词汇,选项A和C是正面词汇,故排除;第三句中提到在NCAA的要求下,国会正在努力推进一项联邦法律,所以NCAA并不是漠不关心的,故排除;选项D是ire的同义替换,故正确。
