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. "
It can be inferred from Paragraph 1 that_________.
选项
A、college athletes strove for their love for sport
B、college athletes didn’t obtain what they deserve
C、athletic conferences profited from recruiting players
D、athletic conferences promoted the legislation
答案
B
解析
推断题。根据题干可定位至第一段。根据选项A可定位至第一句,但是选项A的说法比较片面。这仅是其中一个方面,且这是别人对大学体育运动的刻板印象,并不一定是运动员内心的真实想法。故排除;根据选项C可定位至第二句,recruiting players“招募运动员”获益与文中players’ efforts“运动员的努力”相悖,故排除;根据选项D可定位至第三句,文中并没有提到运动协会推动立法,无中生有,故排除;由But后面引起的转折可知,学校和运动协会从球员的努力中赚到数十亿美元,而即将生效的州法律将允许运动员们从自己的成功中获利,可以推断出大学运动员并没有因为他们的成功得到他们应得的,故选项B正确。
