Oregon House passes bill to stop NCAA from punishing schools, athletes for NIL activity

The Oregon House passed a bill that would amend the state's law regarding college athlete name, image and likeness (NIL).

House Bill 4119 would prohibit the NCAA, conferences and other athletics governing bodies from punishing athletes or schools due to actual or alleged violations of the governing body's NIL rules. It also would allow NIL compensation to be contingent on an athlete attending a specific school, plus provide colleges and universities in the state and their employees with liability protections related to NIL activity.

The bill passed 50-4 on Thursday and is scheduled for a first reading in the Senate on Monday.
