Judge Clifton L. Corker issued a temporary block on Friday, prohibiting the NCAA rule that prevents high school recruits from signing monetary deals with university booster groups.
This ruling, prompted by a lawsuit filed by the Attorneys General of Tennessee and Virginia, challenges the NCAA’s ban on utilizing name, image, and likeness (NIL) in recruiting.
While amateurism has historically been a cornerstone of the NCAA, Judge Corker deemed the lawsuit compelling enough to suspend the NCAA from imposing any restrictions on prospects signing NIL deals before joining programs.
