NIL Hour: NCAA Congressional Testimony w/ Witness Jason Stahl; Caitlin Clark - Angel Reese Debate; AI v. NIL; Potential TikTok Ban

Welcome to THE Sports Law Podcast! We keep you informed on everything at the intersection of sports and the law. The world of Name, Image, and Likeness keeps moving forward as Dan Lust (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@SportsLawLust⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠), Tarun (⁠@tksharmalaw⁠), and Mike (⁠@Mike_sonof_Law⁠) are joined by Jason Stahl (@JasonStahl__) to discuss the next steps in the NIL with a potential federal bill.

The women's championship game between LSU and Iowa has created a lot of buzz. (4:25) LSU defeated Iowa very easily, and Angel Reese has been criticized for her actions and competitiveness in comparison to Caitlin Clark. We discussed the actions and the whole women's tournament.

Jason Stahl discusses his experience on the congressional panel for NIL. (15:38) Jason Stahl is the founder and executive director of the College Football Players Association, which you can check out ⁠here⁠. Jason talks about how he was the only panelist, and person in the room, that seemed to be against federal intervention. Last week we discussed Charles Barkley's comments against a federal bill too. Jason talks about the possibility for universities to take NIL into their own hands, and provide school based NIL deals for their athletes, based on media rights. Check out Jason's interview with On3 ⁠here⁠.

Caktus AI is making waves in the NIL world. (51:30) There are three deals with college athletes with Caktus AI being Livvy Dunne, the Cavinder Twins, and Matt Bradley. We discuss the potential issues that this poses with the potential for cheating and how the use of AI technology should/will soon be banned. Matt Bradley commented about his use of Caktus AI following San Diego State's win against FAU in the Final Four.

TikTok is being investigated by Congress and could potentially be banned in the U.S. (58:33) The NIL world has concerns that this ban would impact college athletes and their potential earnings. We discuss the alternative social media platforms that could be just as successful.
