    'Within the 11-state footprint of the country’s most dominant league,
    some schools have worked with state lawmakers to rewrite statutes to
    give them an advantage over neighboring programs.

    New state laws adopted in Arkansas, Missouri, Texas and Oklahoma clear a
    path for their schools to bring NIL programs more under their proverbial
    roof while also prohibiting enforcement from the NCAA and others. This
    new evolution of NIL collectives tests NCAA and SEC governorship, risks
    federal rules violations and, maybe most important, pushes college
    sports another step closer to what many believe is an eventuality:
    Schools paying athletes directly.'

    No one will touch it -- schools have been paying players directly for a long time illegally.
