So ol’ Deaner is saying Nebraska has the same law. Is this accurate? One thing he doesn’t address, does this only apply to kids that commit to Nebraska, like the Missouri law? I think I’ll ask him about this tomorrow. I’m sure he will admit it if he’s misrepresenting Nebraska’s law.

Dean may be off simply because the amended law is new - the governor just signed it

Parson signs off on new, one of its kind NIL law for high school, college athletes​

COLUMBIA, Mo. – Governor Mike Parson officially signed legislation Tuesday giving college coaches in Missouri a more active role in endorsement opportunities for their athletes.
In two weeks, not only will Faurot Field in Columbia be packed for the first Mizzou football game of the season, but a new Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) law will go into effect, allowing in-state high school students to be able to cash in on endorsement deals once the athlete signs on.

“This is going to make us competitive,” President of the University of Missouri System Mun Choi said during Tuesday’s bill signing.


A new Missouri law overseeing how college athletes make a profit from their endorsement rights is being called one-of-its-kind in the nation.
“I hope that true sons and true daughters of Missouri now are going to be able to stay in the state and receive their education and compete here in Missouri,” Sen. Karla Eslinger, R-Wasola, said.

House Bill 417 relaxes NIL laws for college and high school athletes by giving coaches like Mizzou head football coach Eliah Drinkwitz a seat at the negotiation table.

“When you play for the University of Missouri, you represent the entire state, 6.5 million of us, and we are very proud of you, and part of the whole pushing this is so that you can receive your part,” Drinkwitz said.
Under the newly signed law, coaches are no longer prohibited from attending meetings between college athletes and a third-party NIL entity where compensation is discussed. HB 417 says school officials will be able to “identify, create, facilitate, negotiate, support, enable or otherwise assist” with NIL opportunities for athletes.
Previously, coaches and school employees were prohibited from interacting with athlete’s endorsements or NIL collectives.
“We’ve got some great coaches here at the University of Missouri, Coach Dennis Gates, Coach Drinkwitz, and they are showing you what can happen when you have great coaching and great leadership paired with great state law,” Rep. Kurtis Gregory, R-Marshall, said.


The bipartisan legislation also allows in-state high school athletes to start earning NIL revenue once a written agreement is signed. Football recruits can start earning NIL money once they sign with an in-state school as early as December of their senior year. Basketball prospects can sign as early as November of their senior year.
“By doing what we did in this legislation, it is not only rewarding to the universities, but it really rewards you because you deserve it, and you work hard at it,” Parson said to the college athletes in attendance at the bill signing Tuesday.
Back in 2021, the NCAA told schools to follow their individual state laws regarding NIL policy. The NIL language actually fell within a workforce bill, allowing the Department of Economic Development to offer grants to employers whose employees obtain up-skill credentials.
“It is upscaling, it is giving the opportunity to young people and that’s the work we do,” Eslinger said.

Coaches and supporters said this legislation, set to go into effect Aug. 28, will put the state and Mizzou front and center for college athletics.
“It’s really an exciting day, and it’s a day that gives the University of Missouri a chance to lead from the front and that’s what all of us want to be known for, leading from the front,” Drinkwitz said.
The law also allows athletes with NIL deals to obtain a license to use their school’s logo, motto, and colors for marketing and promotion purposes.
Colleges will be required to offer two workshops a calendar year to athletes to address financial skills, time management and entrepreneurship.

Dean acting like this is basically the same law is ridiculous.

As far as I know, Nebraska coaches cannot be involved in contract negotiations. Forget the "getting paid in high school" aspect. The Missouri law allows the school to be involved directly and basically provides immunity from any 3rd party from penalizing the school or player.

These are not comparable imo

here's the language of HB 417 that limits it to Missouiri schools



16. (1) A high school athlete who competes on an interscholastic athletic team in this state that is sponsored by a public school or by a private school whose students compete against a public school's students may earn or attempt to earn compensation from the use of such athlete's name, image, likeness rights, or athletic reputation as provided in this section, subject to the following: (a) A high school athlete shall have the right to discuss earning or attempting to earn such compensation before signing an athletic letter of intent or other written agreement only when having discussions about potential enrollment with a postsecondary educational institution in this state; and (b) A high school athlete shall have the right to earn or attempt to earn such compensation only after signing an athletic letter of intent or other written agreement to enroll in a postsecondary educational institution in this state.

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson signs advantageous NIL bill into law

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson signed House Bill 417 into law on Thursday night. The amended NIL legislation is one of the most advantageous in the country. It prevents the NCAA or athletic conferences from entertaining a complaint, opening an investigation or taking any other adverse action against an institution or its employees for engaging in protected NIL activities.
Parson announced on Twitter that he signed 31 bills, which included the NIL-related bill. The new NIL law goes into effect on August 28.
The news comes just one week after the NCAA released a memo with a directive, if not a warning, to member schools located in states where legislators have passed friendly amendments, which include barring the NCAA or conferences from taking action against schools for NIL activities.
“The Association has been clear and maintains that schools must adhere to NCAA legislation (or policy) when it conflicts with permissive state laws,” the memo stated. “In other words, if a state law permits certain institutional action and NCAA legislation prohibits the same action, institutions must follow NCAA legislation.”
Through the first two academic years of the NCAA’s NIL era, the NCAA has yet to announce any violations of its interim NIL policy.

What’s in Missouri’s new law?​

In addition to protecting in-state schools and their employees from adverse action from the NCAA or a conference, Missouri’s new law allows employees, including coaches, to identify, create and negotiate NIL deals. The law allows public charities with 501(c)(3) status to enter into NIL agreements and it protects contract terms under the Family Educational Right to Privacy Act (FERPA).
Plus, maybe most importantly, high school student-athletes can earn NIL compensation after signing a National Letter of Intent or another written agreement to enroll at an in-state institution.

After Gov. Parson received the bill in May, but before he signed it, Missouri Representative Kurtis Gregory, who was a starting right guard for Missouri, told Tater Island, “I feel like we’re at the top in terms of what we have in statute right now.”
Mizzou athletic officials expressed their support of the new law in a release from the school’s athletic department.

“We are extremely grateful for the hard work of our state legislators to advance all of Missouri’s higher-education institutions through this NIL amendment,” Mizzou athletic director Desireé Reed-Francois said in the release. “This amendment will provide our schools and our current and future student-athletes with the flexibility needed to remain competitive, as the State of Missouri continues to lead the way in the modern-day evolution of intercollegiate athletics. We look forward to the next steps in this important process.”
Tigers’ football coach Eliah Drinkwitz said, “This bill represents another step forward in allowing us to be extremely competitive in the NIL landscape. We are excited about what that means for Mizzou Football.” Mizzou basketball coach Dennis Gates said the new legislation will “help our players maximize their value as we strive to win championships on the court and in the classroom.”

Missouri follows Texas, New York with new NIL laws​

The state of Missouri follows recent legislative changes in Texas and New York.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed a bill into law that took effect July 1 and provides similar protections.
On Monday, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed a bill that specifically named the NCAA among the associations or conferences “shall not authorize its member institutions to penalize or prevent a college from participation in intercollegiate athletics because an individual or entity whose purpose includes supporting or benefitting the college or its athletic programs or student-athletes violates the collegiate athletic association’s rules or regulations with regard to a student-athlete’s name, image, or likeness activities.”
Lawmakers in Arkansas, Colorado, Montana and Oklahoma have also recently passed bills to prevent the NCAA from launching investigations into NIL activities. Lawmakers in Michigan have also expressed an interest in researching new NIL legislation.
