Why? Because UCLA forced EA sports to pay them a licensing fee for use of their marks in a video game while the 6'8, black, bald, PF wearing #31 on the game was entitled to nothing for the CLEAR use of his image and likeness?

Plus, O'Bannon didn't force the change in the transfer rules. It was a byproduct of one of the thousands of gross overreactions to the "panicdemic" that did that.

NIL alone hasn't caused college "free agency". Players were still getting paid to play BEFORE NIL...it just wasn't out in the open. The short-sighted and ultimately dumb decision to completely overreact to just the latest in the line of novel respiratory illnesses to arise from Asia caused it all. No one was really fighting against the transfer rules before the NCAA opened the floodgates in 2020-2021
