Heed guidance from student-athlete's suit against school over NIL dispute

Abstract

It was just a matter of time before a name, image, and likeness arrangement ended up in litigation, and now the first of these lawsuits is upon us. Specifically, Jaden Rashada, a highly sought after quarterback coming out of high school, filed a lawsuit against the University of Florida, the head football coach, a former football staff member who ran the team's NIL program, and a major Florida athletics booster, along with his company, over an NIL deal that went bad.
